I think I found your dad’s car in the registry, though I can’t be sure and there’s not much information on the history of this car.

However knowing it was shipped to NJ, there’s only a few choices, and knowing the options you remember the car having there’s really only one choice.

Grabber Blue was a late addition color so it would be a late 69 as it is. Lending to the idea it was a leftover sold new in very late 69 or 70.

Sold new by Jack Gibbons City Ford in Watchung NJ. This car came with the lower profile F60-15 tires on it with the Xtra heavy duty suspension. Possibly where your dad got the “full racing package” thing from.

Date of last information is 11/94, meaning the car still existed as of that point. And as of 11/94 it was still Grabber Blue according to the T at the end

Marked down MSRP because it was a 69 that had 5% taken off due to being a leftover.

I’ll do a little more digging and see if I can find anything else.
