Why not take it to MCACN and have it go through Steve Shauger & Co's judging program? Lots of neat originality to this car and I think others would enjoy looking it over as-is.

Great idea and definitely something to consider doing.

----Pastieners (sp) is on Woodward at about 14 mile on the east (might be considered north) side and they have a Saturday morning cars and coffee every week. Starts early and is mostly over at noon at the latest. Their store is a great automotive book, magazine and diecast model place. Think you would love it. Lots of GM history in the Pastiener family! The store has a website. I don't get down there too often as it's about an hour, but I definetly could make an effort,,,,LOL!...Bill S

It’s pretty interesting how the “4-4-2 Performance Package” is called out on the window sticker. GM cars usually consist of a letter prefix in front of two digits for every option but “4-4-2” is straight to the point . . . . and cheap!

Crazy how cheap.Cheaper than the Jetaway automatic option! You got a lot for that $152.71.

Post 442 thread...

This thread is very cool...lots of nostalgia and great commentary.

Cars like this and the people who appreciate them are what the hobby is all about.

The old girl still has some steam. Imagine even better after a tune. Wish the original owner ordered an Anti-Spin! Charlie Lillard's driveway video's were the inspiration here.
