Looking for XB coupe

[shepv8]

Hi all,
I have a tough task but am trying to track down an XB coupe my dad sold in wollongong about 1990.
It was a fairmont, T bar - C4 trans, 302 cleveland with 350 holley and single 2 inch sports exh. It had 14 inch mag wheels which were called Delta Concordes. It also had an aftermarket sunroof. It was traded in on a blue ford meteor in dapto or unanderra and was painted metallic dark brown at the time. The bonnet was a standard bonnet, not the GS/GT bonnet but it did have locking pins fitted.
Am trying to track down the chassis no's but the rego plates were GPZ-098.
If this jogs any ones memory I would really appreciate hearing from you

good luck mate, your best bet would be to get the chassis numbers. Unfortunately a lot of coupes have gone to 'coupe heaven'

Yeah, it was suffering from a bit of rust and it was 17 years ago so its along shot, but just maybe someone may remember the car or may know someone who may have owned it since. Rego papers are a tough find 17 years on!!!

Just a thought. Contact VicRoads(?) and see of registration is still in use. If so, I believe they can contact the owner on your behalf (the owner can ignore you - I used this method to try and get a set of plates that were "owned" but not being used).
