Mike, welcome to PY!
 Sounds like you've scored yourself a great (big!) cruiser. If the car has been cared for the way you say it should last a good long time. I'd be a little wary about driving that far for the maiden voyage just for that fact that it hasn't been driven much in a long time. Pontiac motors will run forever if they're not abused (over revved), same for the TH400. You shouldn't have too much trouble finding basic maintainance parts for your car but body and trim is a whole other story. That Grandville will be a dream to drive out on the road, the 455 should move it around with ease!  It won't be any canyon carver but it'll be competent in modern traffic and have a smoooooooooth ride. Good luck with it and post some pics when you get it home.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
