A VIN would be helpful if you have it or do a car fax on it

How about this doesn’t need it’s own thread...? Mods, what has happened here? Things like this use to get locked in a heart beat.

That's how we keep Zilvia alive, gripe about the existence of a thread instead of contributing something positive to it.

OP - It'll break your heart, but odds are that car is long gone. I looked into auto salvage yards close to Glendale, and a lot of them are listed south of Glendale, near Huntington Park. Each one of them seems fairly small, so they probably don't keep their inventory around for a very long time. You could be a pest and call them one by one, but you'd need to have more information other than a description. These guys go through tons of cars, and unless you have a "Rainman" on the other end of the phone, I doubt you'll turn up much. Odds are a wrecked early 90's car was crushed, maybe after someone ripped the parts off it. If it didn't go to auction, it was either crushed, or it was shipped off to southeast Asia, where a lot of US cars wind up going after they are deemed total loses.

You?re right, I could?ve contributed something positive, but I chose not to. I see it as a pointless post, void of critical information, such as a VIN.

I would be inclined to agree with you though, that it?s probably been scrapped.

I actually agree that this didn't need a thread, especially without a VIN.
