Hello Howard-
Big fan. We’ve met before and each time a pleasure I have a question that I hope can send us in the right direction. About 30 years ago my brother in law’s 1969 Mach 1 was stolen in the Hicksville area. Now I realize it’s a long time but I was looking to see if there is a way to trace vin# now that the internet seems to be the answer to all things. Haha. Anyway I was looking for a first step in some direction. Thanks
Good luck with your “new” Tucker and continued success
Raymond

Raymond, thanks for the comment. I don’t know the answer to your question. Maybe a VanderbiltCupRaces.com viewer can help.
