Brings a tear to my eye.My first gremlin,a 1973 with a 304 V-8,auto ,P/S,P/B,A/C in pewter silver,made in Brompton Ontario.I know where the car is now,after I owned it for 25 years.It's sort of still restorable.If I got the cash I'd like to buy it and do it back to original.A lot of good memories of that car.
Good luck and enjoy the car.

Hi Jack, I am having fun, did a good burnout the other night with my wife in the car, she could not believe it.
I will be at Epping on Thursday, see you there.

Don't overdo it with the burn outs Steve,or you'll be replacing axles before you know it!
Did you get to check out those other parts ?
I'll bring you a list of part #'s to Epping if you are going/

Hi Kris, good question, I had to look that one up myself. If I were to race it in stock eliminator it would be an L/SA with the original 304/2V motor.

Hi Tom, I have not had a chance to check the parts, will do on Monday.
I spoke to Don about the seat belts (shoulder harness) and a radio or blank out plate, he has located them and will get them to me at Epping.
I am leaving for Epping on Wednesday, see you there.
