Default 1969 Camaro SS hidden away

Hi everyone.I am trying to fine some information about a 1969 camaro that has been sitting since 1978. I am hoping someone may know the story of this blue SS. This car was towed/ impounded July 17 1978 in Bangor Maine . The car had New York plates.It is a big block aluminum headed 4 spd car, hooker chrome headers, side pipes, cragar wheels,4-56 rear gears, nasty built motor. I was 13 when the car was towed in ,I was working sanding ups trucks.In the trunk were 2 small cc engines,maybe motorcycle engines?My father painted the car after possession was taken by the owner of the shop as an abandoned vehicle.(Cobbs autobody and custom chroming 27 Perkins st Bangor Maine). The owners son who ran the chrome shop took the car.He removed the motor and put it on display in his office. The car sat covered up in the back of the shop.Life got in the way and he just kept the car hidden away.The car sat until oct of 2018 when I purchased the car after his death.I tried to get documents but it’s an Oct 68 built car,I was told no records exist .Can anyone help with finding records ect.? Or May know of the story of who owned it? Yes after trying for 30+ years to buy the car I have the vin and the car.I am happy to share photos and information. The motor has a lot of unique parts and day 2 parts.Its as it was in 1978.Thanks old jeffy
