Selling Dealer

Is there a way to determine the selling dealer of a Pontiac in 1985? Or is any of that on the build sheet? I really don't want to start taking the interior out to try and find it, if it's even in there.

Thanks

Re: Selling Dealer

Thru 1986 MY If you get a packet from PHS you will get the original invoice, which would have the original dealer.

1987+ MY you have to go through GM media archives

Re: Selling Dealer

Phs will have it. My car was from a dealer in Michigan. I was even able to go on Google maps and see it. It was an old picture with a ton of gtos out front.

Re: Selling Dealer

I have a pretty good idea on which dealer it was, being it was the ONLY Pontiac/Cadillac dealer in that little town it spent most of its life in according to registration records.

I bought it used in a different state.

Here's the kicker......if its where I think, It came from MY HOMETOWN in Pa.!
So yeah, I'm on a mission!

Re: Selling Dealer

The dealership is also on the build sheet, if all else fails. That's how I found mine out.
