Well, again thanks for the kind comments. I just received the GM Canada print out and it answers a couple of the questions. For Kurt, the car is in fact a N95 wire wheel cover car, so the hubcaps are original. Rest assured that they will be part of the regularly rotated wheel tire combos. Most likely will add the correct pinstripe whitewalls to match the spare. Also of interest is the fact that it lists the original tire size as a F-70 x 14 white stripe. I was under the impression that the standard tire size was an E-70x14? Is this a convertible and SS application only? As to the rear antenna location, it would seem that the car was originally shipped without a radio. No mention of the U63 radio option. The original owners did own a GM dealership, so it is thought that the correct AM radio was added later, along with the rear antenna install. This would explain the incorrect positioning on the rear 1/4. I have the GM docs saved and can post them if someone can help out.
Thanks! Rick

Talk about some cool and unusual options, engine block heater (probably not unsual for Canadian cars)and a visor vanity mirror.

Yes, some cool and unusual options for sure. Both the block heater and visor mirror are still present. The block heater cord still retains all the factory routing clips also.
