I'll have to say no. The law, which allows a child to become a US citizen when a parent becomes a US citizen, didn't come into effect until year 2000. The statue is not covered retroactively. Thus, the child is not eligible for acquired citizenship.

I believe the requirement at the time was both parents had to naturalize.

I think both parents were LPR at the time of child'd birth. parents should have applyid for retuning visa for the child when he was under two years of age, and got him a Green Card. and at the time of fathers naturalization the child could have claimed the USC.
It's to late now. father should file I-130
