When I owned the car, it had about 49K miles. It was in fantastic original condition. For my graduation gift from HS, my parents had a very good restoration shop do a modest amount of body work and spray the car original colors. It still had the factory top.

I was 16 years old and, for whatever reason, could not even bring myself to cut the dash to add a stereo. Even then, I was a bit of a purist. The guy in Brookfield (don't know his name) was also a purist. Come to think of it, I must have sold the car in about 1988 and it was in immaculate condition. The only thing I remember was a tear in the driver's seat. It had a black interior.

I don't this car ever became a little rough. I sold it with only 65K miles or so. I heard the rumor that it made it into a Pontiac magazine and was owned by a high school principal in Dubuque.

I did some dumb things (remove the original spiral shocks), but at the time, I only had a motorcycle and the GTO. I made it through winters by driving the bike. The goat never saw a flake of snow when I owned it.

The car was ordered by a physician in Green Bay for his wife. He ordered all of the luxury items but not really the performance things.

Always hoped to see the car again.
