[AT] Test, now antique shows

[charlie hill]

Steve I used to own a 1973 Buick Centurion.  Yes a Centurion, not a Century.
It was basically a LeSabre except it wasn't quite a LeSabre.   I don't know 
how
many of those things were made but I sure should have kept it.  It was an 
odd ball
for sure and a heck of a car.  4 dr hard top with a 455.

61 or 62 was the last year for the Nomad as a distinct model. May have
still been available as an odd trim package though.

GM likes to confuse people with their vehicle names...

If you want to cause a counter person a headache just walk into the
store and tell them you want parts for a Chevy Blazer. There are so many
variations in that one name to cause problems.



It's one of the reasons I laugh at Fords "F-Series is the #1 selling
truck for the Xth year" When every truck you sell from the F-1 through
the F-900 mid sized is an F series you should have the best "series"
