I've been looking for even later pics...the thing must have existed in the 90s.

There was still 16 cars in the July 1989 ORER, but they are gone by October 1991.
The 1982 photo on Tangent's site is the latest one I have seen...

Here's another undated shot that looks to be 1980's (post '78 at least)

Thanks for looking it up. Too bad they didn't make it past '91, but maybe some fantasy weathering is in order?
