West coast promo office

[Norwayduster]

1st registration

[6bblgt]

it looks like its "promo" use was over & it sold as "lightly used"/"executive used"/"other" by May '71

the tinted glass probably excludes it from TV or movie use * but the rallye wheels, rallye gauges, F70-14 Polyglas tires, dual racing mirrors IMO still point to something "sporty"

anyone with one of the newspaper search accounts, can you search the CA license plate "066 DBJ"
& VINs JH27G1B227348 and JH27G1B228861 ?

hopefully the red car makes a return trip to MATS this weekend, maybe the owner knows its prior history

thinking out loud   Lee Trevino & Bob Hope were connected/sponsored/other? by Chrysler Corp. 

the 1971 PGA Tour had 4 dates in southern California during Jan./Feb.
January 10 - Glen Campbell - Los Angeles Open
January 17 - Bing Crosby National Pro-Am
January 31 - Andy Williams - San Diego Open Invitational
February 14 - Bob Hope Desert Classic

If it turns out to be a celebrity car or something, you lost a little bit of the originality with the colour change, but you're the one that gets to own and enjoy it, so you might as well 

[Norwayduster]

Hehe. It doesnt matter. Original the car was kind of ice white and was painted a warmer white somwhere in time. I like the hemi orange perlcoat😆 it was my wifes choice.

[RUNCHARGER]

Yes: It's hard to beat orange on an E-body.

Looks like they all have changed colour so all of these were identical from the factory?
