If this is the Patelle Dart, has it ever been located?

Another post stated it went out west....but where?

Gives restoration history but not the original owner.

Who's was this originally?

About 10-11 years ago there was a Jerry Norton that had a black LO23 Dart that he won "best of show" at a employee/customer parking lot carshow in Oak Park Michigan. The magazine photo that I have shows a extreamly clean looking car with no obvious modifications except the addition of front side-marker lights and dog-dish hubcaps (did they come with them?) on steel wheels. Does anybody know if this car is accounted for? The article does not say what transmission it had.

There was a black Dart from FLA and a black Dart from MI that I was interested in purchasing. I found out that both of those particular cars that I found were rebodys, so I quickly moved on in my search.

I don't want to get into any arguments about re-bodied cars but I put the history together on the Norton Dart -an original MSO still exists. The car was tubbed in the 70-80's and later the rear floorpans were replaced. Note that some of the original owners put front side marker lights in the fenders. The original owner of this car did as well.
