Spotted member 5 is Alive tonight on the 91 Westbound in the Long beach area. sorry it was too dark to take a pic, but I did roll down the window and yell, "Finally, now YOU'VE been spotted!" 
Your car looks nice bro! You should come out to one of the SoCal meets soon... There's another one coming up in early January.

30 seconds after we split, I hit the biggest f*ckin' rock ever with the front driver side wheel...
Checking out the aftermath once we got home, it looked like someone took a couple lumberjack swings at it with an axe... damn...
