Daily News exec gets stolen Mustang back after 35 years

jack-klunder-mustang.jpgJack Klunder, the president and publisher of the Daily News, was 18 and at Rio Hondo Junior College in Whittier when his 1966 Mustang (bought for $800 in 1974) was stolen from a parking lot. Last year he got a call from the CHP saying it had been recovered, owned by a woman who bought it in 2001. It has now been restored, as DN columnist Dennis McCarthy explains.
