1985 Mustang GT Restoration-original black, moonroof, 5 speed car.
Not sure if this was already mentioned, or if it is the same in your state, but...
In California, in addition to the DMV there is the "Bureau of Automotive Repair". On the BAR website you can type in any license plate or VIN number and it will show the car's smog test history (from California).

Good luck !
I have continued to update my craigslist ad -- but have not gotten one single response.
That said, I will keep trying. Thanks for asking! I appreciate it.
I'm not familiar with this website -- but will definitely look into it.
Thanks for the tip! I appreciate it.
As 2016 comes to a close, so does another year of not finding this car.
I've taken out newspaper ads -- posted flyers -- and had a continuous CL ad.
I've had it on Facebook for quite some time, too.
I've not gotten one response.
Facebook people have given me some tips -- though none have panned out.
I've driven around for countless hours just looking for it.
I just cannot believe that no one has any type of connection to look it up by VIN.
As mom's health continues to deteriorate, I just wanted to be able to show her that I found it.

Closest I've ever seen, and it's an '84. $1350 is a great price for it.

With car show season coming up, I'm ordering some flyers from VistaPrint and will give those out.
Someone ... somewhere ... has to know something about it.
Thank you to all of you who have offered suggestions on it. I appreciate you.

PM to you, Steven.
Here's what happened at the DMV: At first, the girl told me that she couldn’t help me and couldn’t give me any information. I was honest with her and explained my story to her – and then told her that all I wanted to know what if the car still existed. She looked it up and said that the car’s information had been archived. I asked her what she meant – and she never really explained. She said that I could go to the state DMV in Little Rock, but that they probably wouldn’t give me any information on it either.
So, the short answer would have been that the DMV didn’t help me. I’m still looking for mine – and I wish you success in finding your car.
From earlier posts:
"Archived" also means that the car is has NO active registration in your state.
When "Slick Willy" was President Congress passed the "Privacy Act" which pretty much shut down public access to registration information and other personal information in government hands. Before this act I did "Title History" searches all the time to find the owners of cars I was interested in and to see if I could find a paper trail history on cars.
Depending upon your state a dealer can sometimes get access to previous owner information. Certainly an attorney can get the previous owner information if they make a legal request and provide a valid legal reason for the request. Another avenue to check is your local "Title Guy" who fixes title problems, files mechanics liens and other issues related to vehicle registration. As the "Title Guys" must search for the owner of a vehicle upon which a mechanics lien is filed. They generally can find out the name and last registered owner of a vehicle and "might" even tell you who it is IF you know your "Title Guy".
Something to consider!

Thank you very much for that information, Mike. I really appreciate your input.
I spoke to some dealers up here in Arkansas -- and found that they shy away from that topic BIG TIME.
Other than that, I don't really know people like you describe up in this area (as I've generally been in Florida much more than up here in Arkansas), but I will definitely ask around.
I have probably failed in getting this car back in time to show it to my mom. She went into Hospice yesterday.
Mom passed away this morning.
Sorry to hear that Danny. Deepest sympathies. Finding this car would have been small consolation to the bigger things in life.
