I remember it well from our old PWT days - sharp car.

It was sold to a friend only to be replaced by a naturally asperated 1980 Trans Am with a weak 301. What was I thinking?

Prior to selling the Sprint I gouged the idiot lites out of the dash and put in some H.D. Stewart Warner gauges. They were actually quite functional but far from original looking. The GM AM/FM radio was pulled out, thrown into the weeds and an AM/FM "San-sewage" in-dash Cassette deck was installed

Sometime after my friend bought it, the ralley wheels where disposed of and the car/truck was sporting the large "boots" and mag rims of the era.

He then took it down to Vegas where the transmission cooked on it. It was replaced with an exchange unit. He returned and after about a year in his hands, he sold it to a "cable-guy" who promptly cratered the engine. It lost it's originality year after year. A comman thing back in the day.

Last I heard the Cable-Guy was drag racing it at the now defunct Shepard Raceway.

Who knows what happened to it since then?

Gee! Welcome to the Poncho site! I had a use for that Sprint.....to haul Cerwin Vega speakers around the country side. Party to party, venue to venue.  Just the memory makes my ears ring and start up a hang over.
I remember hauling a whole house of stuff in the back of that thing too.....to beautiful downtown Bowness.
How about the road trips to Penticton? Work all day at P.W.T., then warp six to Skaha lake!
Camper, street shaker, even hauled flowers at a funeral.
It was a good concept. Served it's purpose well.

Is that a 76 or 77?  I think thats when they stopped that design.   My brother still has his running 75 SP although it is kind of weathered now.  Blue with white stripes and ralleys.  His had a bench though and a 350 2bbl.
 Probably for sale if you want another project.

Funny about the speakers story though. I remember when I bought my Klipsch La Scalas we went to Edmonton in the Sprint to pick them up.  i thought they were way too heavy to ever blow out of the box so we didn't tie them down.  (I was sleep deprived at the time if thats any excuse) Anyway out one of them flies onto the highway at about 100 kph! i was horrorstruck (and suddenly wide awake) but once it stopped sliding on the pavement we picked it up while all the laughing drivers swerved around us.   Nothing jingled when we shook the box so we stuck it back in and tied them down!.
When we got home I took it out of the scruffed up box and noticed a small ding in one corner, so with trembling hands i hooked them up. (These were seriously expensive speakers even in 1978)  Blasted me out of the house! Huge relief! Now 30 some years later after a lot of moves i can't tell which one it was any more.  Those babies were built!

I had a all original Sprint  GP with 427-425 hp, 3 speed on column,  with a/c,  and  traded it for a  56 Dodge 4 door with hemi
