After coming to its new home, the vehicle's history was fully researched and  documented.  With the assistance of General Motors of Canada (Oshawa, Ontario) and Pontiac Historic Services (Sterling Heights, Michigan) the birth date and options were resurrected from original documents and microfiche.

Then the alterations began.  Upon its arrival at its new home, the following immediately occurred:

  • Complete mechanical safety and compliance checkCLICK here to see more

By May 2003, a major transformation had taken place with a shaker hood fabricated by
Sterling Collision & Glass.  This required significant advance thought, as there was only one chance to "open up" the top of the hood.  Many measurements were conducted, and the finishing touch was the chrome outline around the opening.

A RamAir system was reinstalled, and complete vehicle graphics -- inside and out -- were OEM  accurate by Cutting EDGE Graphics.  And the final touch was a set of refurbished Rallye II wheels, with the work done by skillful artisan Bob Aitken.  Click for more info about May 2003.
