Stepping Back to 1985
It all started in the summer of
'85 with a young marine engineer returning from 4 months at sea with a wad of
cash burning a hole in his white Don Johnson
leisure suit. While walking the car lot at Bonnyman Pontiac in New Minas,
NS, a certain red Fiero caught his eye and before the end of the day, he was
driving home in his brand new "Notchie" . While it was not a
fully loaded model with luxuries such as a/c and cruise, it did have power
windows and a sun roof.......... and AM/FM/cassette. The drive home was
spirited and memorable as the 98hp 4 cylinder coupled to the manual 5 speed
pushed the little red 2 seater through the twisty back roads of the Annapolis
Valley.
Literally......... right off the show room floor in 1985. So clean and shiny.
