    not mint, 10 footer for sure, needs body work; but suspension, brakes, dual a/c system, misc engine parts replacement, makes it a pretty reliable car. kinda station wagon like. lol!

    Welcome aboard..... love the Clamshells!!! (y)
    I even have to admit I recently installed a piece of Pontiac in my Buick Estate Wagon: a (Pontiac only?) lock for the rear lid (the lid to enter the space for the hitch) It wasn't available from Buick at the time and came in a Pontiac carton box.

    The Netherlands! Wow, did you find those cars there or had them shipped? Can't be a lot of old Gms out there, right?
