110K for a 1980 turbo in the wrapper. I was sitting with JW and Tenney at R&amp;S Newport a couple years ago when J Dubs 10TH with 30 miles hammered for around 60k, and that one belonged to the man. How many tens of thousands of starlight black TA's did they make? Insane indeed.
Conversely, the monkey garage cat got whacked on his serial# one &amp; two gen 5 COPO's, what a look on his face.. </div></div>

Fun day - and cool car! In addition to Jim &amp; Joe (Dirt) provenance, it's a 4spd, and so has the 400 (last year Pontiac motor).

Per JW, they'd pitched a different interior scheme for the 10th, but GM had a bunch of silver leather and carpet kicking around from the '78 Pace Car and Silver Anniversary 'Vettes, so that's what it got.

Still in good company (and driven a little!) ...
