    81 Grand Prix

    Here she is with the wheels from my 79 Elky on temporarily while I re-gasket the tpi. Looks ok I guess, but only until I can afford some cragars, or even find some nice used ones.

I bought it from a guy who bought it from his brother-in-law, who bought it from his dad, who bought it brand new. It's been babied all along, has 113,00 original kms, a 350ci transplant...
