Took the GTA to have Cooter change the oil and give it a once-over:

Cooter's In The Country:

Great museum, if you are into the show...
Cooter loved the car, BTW.

Thanks. Appreciate that.

Car hasn't been to Cruising the coast. Cooters has 3 locations. Two in TN and one in VA. This was out at the one in VA.

This look familiar? Its the 89 that was displayed the last few years at the Miss show. Its an Alabama car. My pic took on a blue hue to it but it really is grey like yours.

Looks like your twin!

Re: Took the GTA Convertible to Cooters:

Thanks. My steering wheel is a bit different than most other 1989 GTAs

Looks like cloth seats in the other one vs. leather, and no body side moldings, either.
