Hello from Cincinnati... Looking for my Dad's ol' T-bucket

Hello Everyone,
I am excited to be part of the forum. Anyone who knows me knows I am ate up when it comes to cars. What I have owned has run the gamut, from muscle, to custom, to European.
...that stated I feel it is time for me to return to my Hot Rod roots. I grew up around cars at a young age to which now I am 40. The saga begins with my father and his lending to the car hobby.
I would like to track down his 23 T-Bucket after 32 years… if it’s still around. I have posted a few original untouched pictures taken from 1979 to 1981. The car was sold to someone in Sylvania Ohio in 1982 (Toledo Ohio). We remember seeing it for sale sometime shortly later. The owner had the engine listed as a 340 as I recall, which it was NOT. It had a 318 Chrysler with a brand new Sixpack intake.
You see, my father was a Parts Manager for Elk Chrysler-Plymouth, Painesville OH throughout the 70’s. That is the direct connection (No pun intended) to the Mopar power-train in the T-bucket. The car was unique to say the least, and I would like to know of its whereabouts. The pictures below are taken at our house and at Cleveland Auto-Rama, and Severance Center Mall in Solon Ohio between ’79-‘81.
According to my father, he recalls my brother and I sent a picture of it in to Hot Rod Magazine around 1981, and it appeared in one of those issues at the time but I am unclear of which one? If anyone has any information on this car I would really appreciate it.
