I first encountered this car 10 years ago and it came available this summer (condolences to the family of the owner). I thought for sure it had gone down the road several years ago and never would have expected to see it again. It's had a long garage life, the body is riddled with dings and scratches and being Minnesota a bit of rust, but it's otherwise factory fresh down to the window sticker and other original documentation in the glove box. Interior is immaculate, runs and drives like a dream aside from the original tires which are still round but hardly circles. It's got the v6 and AC but is otherwise a heat and keys model, AM radio, plastic door panels, bucket bench. 18,000 miles on the clock! This is a quick shot the afternoon we brought it home. I've got no plans other than to clean it up, have some PDR done, and replace the wheels and tires with 14" or 15" for driving on, keeping the OE parts for showing. When I saw IMSAkid's green machine (http://www.a-body.net/forums/showthread.php?19751-New-guy-with-a-1980-Chevy-Citation) I had to join and share. Never would have guessed there to be two low mile survivors!
