Hey.

I saw this group somewhere, some profile page, and doing what I normally do, just followed the links. I don't actually own an old car, well, if you don't count my 91 Suburban, but I love old cars. My daughter, however, has my grandmother's 1965 Grand Prix, which she and her hubby are in the process of restoring. My grandmother managed to bang it up a bit. :) The inside is all original interior, still almost like new. She is a beauty. They had the motor freshened, and we took her out last weekend for the first car show of the season. She is still in the unfinished class, but since the hot rod club was sponsoring the show in Mason City, Iowa, the GP wasn't entered, just a host car. Last year she took two awards in the unfinished class. I'm telling you, look out car world when this baby is finished. She's a beaut. They found the build sheets under the seats, still have the original papers from when my grandmother ordered her back in the day.



This last picture is my grandmother with her 'baby' back in about 1970.

Pretty car. The3 Gran Prixs of that era were truly elegant.

yep, they were arcade. look at you, here, too. lol. I don't know why I am, other than I love old cars. My first was a 1957 four-door sports sedan, bronze and cream, like the one below (not it). I wish I still had it.

What a beautiful old car -- and how wonderful that it's been kept in the family! Enjoy!
