Some where some one is driving their collector car for the last time but they don't know it . Drive your car every time like it could be the last memory of it .

Looks like another (possibly) Color of the Rainbow or Color of the Month promotion car since its a spring car. The car has been repainted at least in some areas, wonder how close the current color is to the original. Interior unibody and door jamb suggest fairly close

Don't see allot of the Blues

Owner uses a odd looking jack or jack stand on the rear quarter panel/trunk drop. Not something you could do on allot of cars from other parts of the country

Marti would tell us if he cross referenced the DSO to others to see if it (the DSO) was a group of cars rather than a single order. If it was one of a group of cars built under that order one could assume that it was a promotion rather than customer special order, that it was part of one of those promotions depending on where it was sent or ordered from.

Looking at my records the special order number is only two digits off of two other special orders of different colors out of southern Calif. IMHO this suggests that the orders were likely created/submitted at or about the same time as the others. Suggesting that it may likely be part of that larger promotion

Examples that may fall into this promotion but for other months (colors)
710778, 710780, 710783 (one in the ad), 710784, 710785
