Steve - you are correct. Been out here in Apache Junction for years. I forgot that it was a Canadian car too. He showed me the Canadian report. How did you hear of this car? I am embarrassed to say that I have no close ups of the engine bay - got distracted (doesn't take much) https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif I'll be staying in touch with the owner. He is less than 10 miles from my home. Anyway, here she is:

Original and 2nd owners were tracked down by current owner and the dealer invoice, original early photos, and Utica time slips are coming his way....

Holy cow, I didn't realize it was that nice of a car. What a great find! I heard about the car from my buddy Jon Krogh, who may have been in touch with the current owner when he first picked it up, not sure. Great pictures! I hope the thing will be kept original. Most Canadian cars are nowhere near THAT clean lol

There are some ruff areas wrt the paint not shown in photos. Everything on car works including the clock! For the time being the owner plans to keep the car original. A real sweetheart of a car!!

Sam,

If it's "been in Apache Junction for years" he hasn't had it registered for very long https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif Nice looking car, though https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Bill - not sure what you are saying. Newest owner has only had it for about 2 months. Car hasn't been driven for years and the new owner just registered it, hence the new style license plate (no raised alphanumerics).

Sam,

I see now....been in AJ for years but just went to a new owner recently. Yes, I was questioning the new style license plate, but that explains it https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Steve - don't know for sure why the SW gauges are there (look nice don't they), but this car was bot to race at the track and I expect the owner wanted more reliable than GMs best for systems monitoring https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif
