Not really sure. I would believe some where north of Spokane as I was told the individual who bought the car Drag Raced in Spokane during the 70's and 80's. this goes with the drive train info being removed A12(MikeR) shared from the Six Pack Registry. I have a post over there looking for any info on the car too.

Might this painted to white car have had a black vinyl roof?

Boy that must have been great to find yours. I would be happy to retrieve any part of the car that still can be found. Cool picture. Have you started the resto?
No, I hope to start the resto next year after I get my 500 done and my R/T driveable, here is my car in 1976 when I first bought it, sold it in 1979, found it and bought in back in 1985
WOW really looks like it was in good condition when you sold it. Was it in the weathered condition of the picture when you got it back?

There was a white 69 Runner with a black vinyl roof on Larry Brown Motors lot in Prince George B.C. in the late 70's it had a six pack on it and the six pack hood. It was a column auto, I never checked the VIN on it and I'm not sure who ended up with it. It had radiused rear wheel wells. If it was a real A12 it could be the car, but after 30 years it's hard to say. The car was slow, something like 14.0s hence I didn't check it out closer. It was a hardtop, I've got faraway photo.s of it somewhere.
Sheldon
The car was purchased in Spokane around 1983 then went to Canada. It was White no vinyl top or radius wheel openings. So it probably is not it. Thanks for the heads up.

Looking for my Dad's A12 F3 Frost Green Road Runner. My dad and mom ordered this car new and was delivered to Tekoa Motors Tekoa Washington. I do have the original Edlebrock intake and six barrel Holley carbs. My dad had removed them around 1972 in favor at the time for a Holley Dominator. He sold the intake set up to a friend who had it in his Garage until I was able to acquire it a couple years ago. Last I understand the car had been sold to somebody in Canada in the early 1980's. It was purchased from a gentleman named Wayne Hansen in Spokane Washington around 1983. It was painted White at that time. Any information on this would be appreciated. If the car has been damaged or parted any of the remaining parts Engine Trans (Automatic) Hood, shell, etc I am interested. If the car is not for sale I would like to still provide my contact information if it is to be sold in the future. Please any help would be great.
Thanks, Dave JR
Wanted to add to my post. I have heard 2 times now that the drive train may have been removed and used in a race car. The body then may have been scraped or in an accident with another drive train in it and totaled. At this point the story may be a myth or true. So far no one has provided a name or contact info to support the claim. A bit more info this person who acquired the car from Canada in the early 80's may have come to Spokane Raceway Park before and after that time period. He was a known Canadian Drag Racer I have heard. Hoping this will bring some additional information to find any remains of this car.
Thanks for any help
Dave Jr
