Got a Pontiac project? #oldsparts 😀

I'm also on a lookout for one, have a line on one with a floor shift column (also after) for my project.

I hereby relinquish my DIBS on the next 1978 4 Speed Grand Am. 😢 I just purchased a 1979 Hurst Olds 😎so my hopes and dreams
for that illusive Grand Am are back on the shelf while I toil away at my second favorite ride here now...........

Happy Hunting.................👍

I like it! Don't think I've ever seen that era of Grand Am up here....

Yes, a '77 Can Am, uses the same wheel minus the hub which can be swapped out.
I managed to find a red one that I swapped my center too but I'd like to find a correct black one vs painting it.
Interior was roached but I've collected pretty much everything to restore the car and built a 403 for it since it originally came with one.

Do they even make the stripe kit for that anymore? The Can Am isn't something you see all the time. I've seen several over the years, and maybe the same one a few different times, but still.

I recall back in the Navy days, on I-26 in North Charleston, right by the mall area junction, I came up and passed the Can Am just ambling along. A middle-aged woman was driving it. It was the last time I ever saw one out in the wild. That was around 1990.

Always liked CanAms.

Hot chick I went to high school with drove her mom's a couple times a week. The only one I ever saw in the wild....in a little town in the middle of Iowa, of all places.
