"Abandoned" Shelby GT 350

I spotted a 1967 GT 350 in the weeds behind a factory about 5 years ago. A friend and I offered the owner (an employee there) $20K cash for the car. The guy thought about it for three days then said "no thanks". The car is still there and it's driving me nuts. The car is just rotting away sitting where it is. That said, it's actually in pretty good condition. And I'm 99% certain it's the real deal. I'm not buying anything unless this is verified. The color is wrong for a '67. But the car has all the signs of a Shelby. Factory looking roll cage, steering wheel, hood, air scoops and of course it's badged "GT 350". Anyways, I'm going to write him a letter and send it to his work place and again offer some cash for the car. I don't really want to show up when he's working and bother him. Does anyone have any experience getting people to let go of things like this? Any help drafting the letter would be appreciated These pics are old. The car is completely obscured be weeds now.
