Re: Nostalgia...

Cool. Got something similar from Pontiac Historical Services about my Poncho. I was pleasantly SHOCKED that that info was avail several decades later!

But keep in mind inflation, Spike.

$3211 1966 dollars is about $19,000 in 2005 dollars.

And that $283 A/C system costs more than a GPS navigation system in 2005 dollars!
