@1967 GT+S in Whittier Ca

I lived in Whittier , Ca , from 1970 until Sept 2002 . I was blessed to have been raised in a city which was absolutely rich in car culture ; Whittier Boulevard was a stone's throw from my house .

I've seen some sweet rides over the years ; Street Freaks to stockers , VW's to Lowriders , and even combinations thereof (a Muscle Car with a Lowrider paint scheme was reasonably-common , believe it or not ) .

One car that made its appearance in circa 1985 that has been on my mind almost daily since : 1967 Dart GT+S convertible !
Its was "Bright Butter Nut Yellow Extract" (or whatever that colour was called) with a black top and interior ; an Inland shifter protruded through its console .
I knew back then that this had to be rare !
By 1986 or so , I started researching v.i.n.'s , where they were placed , and how to decode them .
When I finally got close enough to this GT+S to check its v.i.n. , I was disappointed to recognise that it wasn't on the dash !

A couple of years passed ...

... then the 1987 Whittier Earthquake hit !
I was genuinely worried about the well-being of this elusive car ( in addition to being stressed about the damage and losses from the quake , plus not being able to sleep for almost a year afterward ! ) as I hadn't seen it around .
Finally it was around again by Spring 1988 . I was relieved !

By 1994 , I finally saw it being driven around . I followed it for about 5 miles , until its owner-operator stopped at El Pollo Loco (ironically , a building that replaced the infamous Bob's Big Boy which was the hub of the cruising scene) .
I was finally able to check the car's v.i.n. and meet its owner ! :cheers:
I saw LP27H72*in its doorjamb and was excited !
Apparently he bought it from its original owner in 1985 for $4,000 ; a gang of money for any 'A' Body during that time (excepting a '68 Hemi Dart or Barracuda) !

Super long story short : I'm wondering if anyone of my fellow FABO members lives in-around Whittier , and if they've seen this elusive Dart around ?
Its owner is one of the Hendeges [sp?] Plumbing family .


* = The "LP" trim is *supposed to* be correct for 1967 Dart GT+S , as it was "just" a 383-powered GT model . I could be --and most-likely am-- wrong about this , however ... :D
