And now you know it was for sale at least between 2014-2017.   
Did you get a year that the person who purchased it sold it?

Nope he couldn't remember much about it other than it being about 10 years ago. I am assuming it was not for sale long. I haven't heard anything back from him.

To the contrary the car was for sale from the same seller in Florida for at least those 3 or 4 years.  It didn't sale multiple times.  He was asking too much for a completely cut apart car.  It sat in his inventory for that time because of all that. 
  Had he been asking a reasonable price the car would be up here in the mountains at least retaining it's metal and not rusting away. 
  I would assume (you know how that is) that whomever purchased the car got it for a good price as the car was rough in any case and it had been for sale for a while.

My assumption, is that Gordon stuck the guy with the smooth talk and got him to overpay for the car.   Gordon courted me for the sale many times but I can not afford to overspend.  Then he sold it.  I talked to the dealer or whatever a time or two but couldn't work a deal. 
  I do not recall the price.  Too much is too much and I sometimes disconnect from a situation so I don't overspend. 
  Took a while to sale the car.

Alan's wife Peggy just messaged me to say she knows nothing about this car (Gordon's car) or it's whereabouts. Like most of our wives she knew very little about our cars and parts that we had or have.

Thanks for the update. 
I didn't suspect she would know anything about it but it is nice to limit the search some more.

This is the only picture that I could ever find of Gordon's car.  This came from photobucket.  Not sure how I got it but it's definitely Gordon's (your) car.
My opinion is that this picture is the location that Gordon purchased the car from.  However, maybe you can recognize the home or the other barracuda or the ford truck. 
The car does not have the green passengers door here. It does have a dented front passengers fender that appears to be the same dent on the later for sale pictures where the fender is in primer.  Looks like the dent is not as big but still the lead of the dent is in the same location.

Perhaps, someone knows of the other barracuda in the back ground.  The picture of the rear of another car of which I think is a barracuda.

I notice the rear seat is still in the car on the early photo.
Perhaps there was a broadcast sheet floating around somewhere with Gordon.(doubt it)

As I look through the pictures I see the one large door sticker picture.  That was a picture Gordon sent me.  He didn't send me a picture of the fender tag but he did the door tag. 
Notice the fender tag is attached and in the photo of the car when it was for sale.
Gordon did send me a reading of the fender tag which I listed above.  The for sale ad also has the list of items on the tag and they match the picture that you can see of the fender tag.  I believe that to be the correct tag on the car, unreadable but correct number of options on the tag.

Notice the cuda from the background appears to be the donor for the blue fender and blue hood on Gordon's car. 
When it was for sale in Florida it had a bronze hood and green passengers door.  Both front fenders are primered.
