So Monday I went to look for the address of Viking Dodge, and opened the original Warranty booklet, and found the name and date of the original owner, and the dealership he bought it at.
Turns out Valley Dodge changed names a couple times, but STILL exists!
It's where my R/T was first sold... and now is Van Nuys Dodge. Well, it's the same address at least
A reader sent me car dealership info
Valley Dodge Inc.
6110 Van Nuys Blvd.
Van Nuys,Ca 91401
and now that address is http://www.vannuyscdjr.com/index.htm
I'm going to pop in next time I'm up there (a couple times a year) or chat them up online... my day job is now for a Dodge dealership here in San Diego, so my email might convince someone to be a little more helpful
But I'd be thrilled to find an advertisement of a 69 R/T, yellow, black vinyl roof, 440, 4 speed, Dana 60. That would have to be my car.
I've spent time running through the little that Google returns on a search, and nothing popped up
It turns out Viking Dodge was named Studio Dodge up til around 1970ish... and then went out of business in 1978-79
