Great year for Grand Prix styling. I had a Monarch yellow / Black/ Black GP years ago. These were some of the best GM cars of their era, IMO.

Well, over the past year, the car has received the TLC that it needed. The trunk has been freshened up, most of the engine compartment detailed, and best of all, the tired 1980s paint and body work have been addressed with some minor rust repair, and a respray. The car looks great! And the A/C is now blowing cold!

Beautiful GP! That air cleaner looks perfect, please don't desecrate it with one of those stupid red 400-4 air cleaner decals

Thanks. Yeah, everyone has their own preference on those decals. They're not my thing either.
