    I remember a lady being there with a 71. She had a placard for her car. It had info on the car. What stayed in my mind was that she had bullet items that said "I have my original Window Sticker" "I have My Original Bill of sale" "I have my original Protecto Plate" etc. I'm guessing that people in general did not believe she was the original owner, and being a woman would never buy such a vehicle.

    She (Vickie Jo Irving) passed away a few years ago. A relative contacted my dad and the car was being stored near us at that time. I wish I had followed up and went to look at the car.

    Those are 14” Super Sport wheels. Not incredibly rare but for a real GSX they are. Neat car for sure. Hopefully the current owner will get it back out for us to see in the future.

    I think my longest conversation with her was at the quarter car wash one morning. Nice lady. She told she drove to the Cincinnati to pick the car up - sounded like she picked it up at a zone office, and it was not a normal delivery to her local dealership.

    Very nice car and lady. I remember seeing it at the Nats a few times.

    If memory serves me correct she traded in a 67 GS to buy it.
