Frank Sinatra's Alouette II at Van Nuys

I took this photo at Van Nuys Airport during March 1966.
Everyone there agreed that the helicopter belonged to Frank Sinatra.
At the bottom of the photo and in front of the red truck there is a long black limousine. Did it belong to him?
The helicopter was picking up a sling load with its hook.
It also had a winch attached.
The helicopters color was overall white with a red strip below the cabin. Red door frames and a red winch.
Where the battery is located behind the fuel tank there is a red chevron vee shaped. On the fuel tank there is a gray square with, I think the number 58C in black.
No "N" in front of the 58C.
I could not see any others numbers on the a/c.
I hope this helps with your request.
Also in the background is a H-21 and T-6.
