Homer, you should check the Georgia Department of Motor Vehicles.  You may be able to submit the VIN for your car, and see if they can provide you with previous owner history for your vehicle.  With modern privacy laws, they may not release any useful information, but it never hurts to try!

A Marti Report won't tell you anything about previous owners of the car, but it will show how it was equipped when it left the factory and where it was sold from.
To receive the name of the dealership, you need to order the Deluxe Marti Report (about $40 US).  Or you may be able to order the original Eminger Invoice (about $60), which will also have the selling dealership, as well as the price and option details for your car.  The Eminger Invoice is the original Ford Factory invoice for your car, and looks a lot like a dealer window sticker.

I hope that helps.  Good luck Homer!

Let us know what you find out.  I live fairly close to Atlanta and always love hearing about cars that "grew up" in this area.  If I can help out at all with info, I'll be glad to.
