that's diffrent cloth interior GTPs are sort of rare. it also does not have a hud

looks liek a good deal to me and with the lack of options it's lighter just look at the rear strut towers and under the rockers

he told us that the rockers are pretty good, and for sure I will look at the struts. i dont know if you saw what i posted in my other thread but he said it was hit so he replaced the fender when he bought it, then there are little dents in it(probably from hail), then a little rust by gas cap(common in gp's) and then the sunroof that you have to "manually" close if you try to use it. but other than that, thats basically it. he said he also has another gp thats blue but had a small engine fire so replaced the parts it needed on the motor and the wiring, but now the fuel pump wont work! so he has had a few gp's and he drives the red one daily but i think saturday might be that day to look at it!! and i found this one but he is kind of steep with his price for me to get http://detroit.craigslist.org/mcb/cto/2828249891.html but first i would rather the coupe:) and nothing a junkyard cant do for a HUD!

cloth was hit or miss in the 97's the gtp was the add on performance package not nessicarilly a luxury package. so there are some.. but to my knowledge 97 and possibly 98 are the only gtp that would have come from the factory sans leather ( possibly special order but not sure on that either.)

i never use the moonroof anyway.. the wife loves it but she loved the convertable and the t-tops of her camaro too.

they also could come with a bench and no DIC. becuase the bench seat/ colum shift was a no cost option on the cloth bucket seats

I have seen ( and test drove it for someone else) one just ONE 97 - 03 gp with column and bench. And I tell ya it was kinda weird seeing the inside of a gp like that.. Mater you find #'s on how many bench seat cars there where?? Bet it isn't many. Even less than those with manual hood prop rod. ( which I snagged one of when i spotted it. Figure I will cut it down and use it for shows and whatnot )

last i looked ebcuase i ran numbers for a a SE was

89 in 1997

98 bench cars in 1998

70 in 1999

3 in 2000

then there is the 100 mary kay GTs in 2001 that where all bench cars

after 2001 the option was dropped altogether about as many bench cars as there is white interior lebarons


one thing about the bench cars there cup holders are 1000000x better sense they use the same arm rest as the park aves and le sabers

There was a Mary Kay se in my local yard last fall. I didn't bother to pay attention to the seat tho. And the pink was looked lighter than normal for some reason, and it wasn't faded either.

Well just got back and the drivers side was beat to sh*t and not worth it so didn't even drive it. But met a really nice guy who only buys gps and his son supposedly modded his own gtp pretty heavily I guess! But I'm just going to keep looking and hopefully I find one in time for my birthday!
