Found the original owner of my 69 Roadrunner via google search...but can't pin down contact info.

Really cool that you were able to find the original owner.
I have the original warranty booklet with the owner's name on it.
My car was sold at North Plainfield Dodge (No longer exists) I think it was located on the infamous Rt 22. (for anyone familiar with NJ)
From what I can tell, my car was bought for a girl by her father. I should try to pursue more information.
Some state's motor vehicle departments will do a search based on the serial number. (Any Police officer friends?)
Have you tried plugging the name into some of the social media sites?
Good luck- It is exciting to do this kind of "archeology"

That's exciting, congrats! I finally located one of the previous owners of my '68 RR. He was the one that turned it into a race car in the '80s and ended up being track champ with it in Jacksonville. He sent me some great pics of it and is still searching for more, I hope.

Wanted to thank djais1801. He motivated me to seek out the original owner of my A66 Challenger after he found the original owner of his car. I found the original owner of my Challenger from the paperwork I had and was able to communicate with him about my car's earlier history. He still lives in the same town.
This is very cool!
