Default Anyone Know of a Maximum Wedge Car From Salinas, California?

Circa 1975, I went to look at an aluminum front-end Max Wedge vehicle (push-button Torqueflite) for sale in Salinas. Does anyone know who owned the vehicle back then and/or whatever happened to it? Just curious, thank you.

Just read a Hot Rod Magazine article that Bill Riddick had the white Max Wedge car in Salinas, CA in 1971. However I always remembered the name of the owner as a "Cecil Yother" or a similar name.

I am not sure of the year, but I believe it is a 426 CID, not the 413 CID version. I sent the Yother people an email and Merry Christmas message. Thank you. I will report back if I receive a response.
