After Memory Lane in San Fernando closed a few years back, there is not much to choose from in nthe area.
The Grossich's in Colton still have some Forward Look parts cars, but many were scrapped when they lost their yard a few years ago. Turner's in Fresno still has some collector cars, but dwindling down. Any other California yards dealing in collector cars are in the north state.

Smitty,
I am just north of Sacramento, which is a seven to eight hour drive depending on the part of Los Angeles you are in.
