    I'm going to try and email him this thread and get him on here.

    I'll try and get a copy of the window sticker, it's kind of falling apart from being so old. The paper they used was thin to begin with.

    You can buy the GT scoop from autokrafters I think. dmhines put one on his Mav and it looks good. I'm thinking of putting one on my car too.

    I think he lives in Thorton. He brought it to my bro's house in the Littleton area.

    I found out that it is not totally original because he had it repainted the original color several years ago. The colors, engine and interior are all original though.

    One final interesting note: He used if for drag racing (street class only) and was the yearly points champion at Bandimere two years back in the 80's, which is a pretty tough thing to do. One year he only lost by a few points only because my Mom beat him in the final race of the year with my Maverick Grabber.
