    No it's not "all" original, link says............


    The second owner purchased the car in 1983 from the original owner. The stock 4.4L V8 was swapped out for a rebuilt 4 bolt main 350 V8. He also added a GM 10 Bolt Limited Slip Rear Differential, added dual exhaust, front and rear sway bars, and added period correct Enkei Aluminum Rims.

    Love it!!!! (y) Great colors inside and out and loaded up with looks like everything including sunroof! I've always loved that instrument panel design, too. I had a '79 Grand Prix SJ and a '86 Grand Prix LE - both great cars.

    Those look like mid 80s Corvette wheels with custom center caps like you'd find in a Mid-America catalog at the time. But they're not quite that. Enkei made some of the 86-87 or so Corvette wheels but they were slightly different than these Enkeis.

    I've seen those wheels before on a few cars. Not a huge seller, but some people liked them. Occupant's right in that the style is obviously patterned after the Corvette wheels from the mid 80's.

    That sunroof is rare simply because it was over $1,000!
