Hm, not sure, but I do have the PHS on it, maybe I will dig it up and post info.

This car was ordered by a Pontiac dealer owner for his daughter to drive to college. It was not badly optioned, 71 LeMans Sport, lucy blue, PB, PS, AC, tuxedo interior, and vinyl top. 350 2bbl auto car. I bought it from the second owner, and it had about 69k miles on it as I remember, think I paid 2600 for it in '91, there again, I would have to check, but pretty sure. At one point I had someone approach me stating they knew the original owner, the girl who drove it to college, so the history I got from the second owner was validated. I bought the car specifically to use as a tow vehicle for a boat I was planning on buying, put a 400 in it with a Th400 and a 12 bolt 373. I bought a house instead of the boat, and the car ended up being a driver. I drove the car as my primary transportation pretty much until about 2010, and it's had like 7 or 8 engines in it, and I would freshen the engine or replace every @ 100k or so. My kids grew up riding in this car and it's a piece of the family. This go around, when it's done, the plan is to give it to my son (my daughter got the w-30 clone).

Here's a shot of it from like 1993, I had just put an H-O Strong Arm suspension on it, and 16s from like an 88 T/A. Trivia: My kids, young at the time, were ducked down in the car when I took this pic.
