I posted on the Lemans picture thread that another '80 followed me home on Sunday. I thought I'd add a couple more pics here and tell a little more about it. It was posted on the local Craigslist. It has about 80k miles on it and has not been on the road for 15 years. It has been garage stored since '98. The body and frame are very solid. All paint is original and most of it still looks pretty good. It has a couple dings and dents, but no accident damage. The interior is in good shape too, just some fading of the plastic around the rear side windows. The only down side is that it doesn't have bucket seats and it has a 229 V6. That will be upgraded to a larger Pontiac V8. The mud flaps were the first thing to go! This one is going to become my new project. My gray '80 is going to now be my son's car. We'll work on both of them together. He's anxious to get out in the garage and get going! I actually have only taken one picture of the car. The others are from the cl ad.

Thanks guys. I washed it up and took it for a little drive last night. It runs pretty good and actually drives really nice, but that 229 just doesn't do it for me. It needs a BIG Pontiac motor.
