Some pics of my recently acquired '71 T/A.
First of all thanks to forum member 455hota for connecting me up with the car and its second owner, and for assistance in retrieving it from its Ontario, Canada hometown of 45 years
It's a 4-speed car with three factory options: Console, AM Radio, and Rear Speaker. It has 16,700 original miles, original paint, stripes, interior, etc. The low miles are attributable to its having been essentially a dedicated drag car in its early years, followed by a life of indoor storage, with occasional outings to shows by the first and second owners who appreciated what it was. As a result of the early racing activity, the original block is gone. Pretty much everything else is original, save a few odds/ends like chrome valve covers, the vintage oil pressure gauge installed in the dash, and the exhaust downstream of the manifolds (original system a victim of the race car thing).
Interestingly, the GM Canada docs state the car was first delivered to "GM of Canada Show Car Account Oshawa, Ont". The dealer that ultimately received it, Fenton's Pontiac in Port Elgin, Ontario (their sticker is still on the taillight panel), told the first owner it was used by GM of Canada for filming ads.
It's an amazing machine to drive... feels just like new, AM radio still works, doors close beautifully, seats are comfortable in a way the repros never quite get right, etc.
... and a shot of the way it looked in its racing days:
