    I was at the Barnes & Noble in MDR today looking for the latest EVO. When I came out, a guy rolls up asking the year of my Dino. He tells me his grandfather has a blue 74 GTS in Baldwin Hills with only 17K miles from new. He says it was the last Dino imported into Newport Beach. His grandfather passed away a few years ago and the car is with his grandmother. Sitting in the garage. His uncle takes it out once in awhile but is afraid if something were to happen to the car.

    I'm hoping to find time to swing by to see the car. But I'm pretty swamped at the moment.

    The world is a big place and there are treasures hiding everwhere although I too am a little amazed of what turns up now and then. I guess it gives us all hope :)
