What's the seventh digit in your VIN? That'll tell you what plant it was built in.
1AE37 will designate a Laguna

Yes, IDK about only 11 but that Pontiac Lemans GT has a name too, which escapes me @ the moment.  They Built a few GT37 Lemans' also but that one you posted is different.  Pretty cool cars those Poncho's.

Yeah im not 100% on its production numbers but it was in that range, just insanely low.

but that picture was from the first car show I attended. I bought the laguna in the previous fall and come march I went to everything I had time to. I was accually shocked when they let me park with the other cars because my laguna is in somewhat rough shape. ( the nose is cracking, the bottom of the doors on the insides rotting, the corner of the fenders are bubbling, ect.....)

ill look for the ownership when I get home, and let you know what it says. if you could tell me exactly where its from that would be great. I have the car history at home aswell.

That's the great thing about buying a car in Ottawa, they have that package you have to buy from the Ministry of Trans. Gives you all the previous owners of the car, and the dates title was transferred. I still have it when I bought my Laguna.

Are you sure that last #1 isn't a "Z"?

For 1976:
If it were a #2- Oshawa
B- Baltimore
D- Doraville
R- Arlington
Z- Freemont

Interesting. No mention of Wentzville in the GM Heritage package for 76 that's online.

They do mention Oshawa as #2.

Those renderings are amazing. That was done in Photoshop? I would love to learn more about that process as I have two paint jobs to do this summer. It would be way cool to be able to "see" them in a couple different schemes up front.

yeah it was photoshop. took me awhile to get good at it and you need to start with a hi resolution photo.

if youd like id be more then willing to help you with that. just take a good photo of each car from that angle and a side profile and tell me your idea and ill see what I can do.
unfortunately getting a metal flake or any other special effect to see the lighting I cant do just yet.

Thanks! The first job is a 1964 F100 and the second is a Jeep Cherokee.

Can you quickly explain how you change the color and draw the two tone line. I have Photoshop Elements 10 that I process website images on. Not sure if the cheapy version is capable of this.

I'm partial to old school chrome wheels to compliment the paint.My favorite is the solid orange color.(Hard to beat the old school Cragar SS's on the 73-77's.)

I use photoshop elements 5. It came with the bamboo tablets years ago and it was accually the full program. elements 11 is a "teaser", ive used it and its not very helpful at all because they want to force you to buy the whole program.

but I use a combination of magnetic lassos, lassos, brushes, line tools, like 6 layers, multiple colour variation and hue tools.

Fishhead, did you ever check out sst/auto drag afficinados on Facebook?  Its a page dedicated to these wheels.  There is also a slot mag page, crager page, daisy mag page, and a couple others i can't remember in my current buzzed state. Beer
