The St. Hill clan bought that car from a SDA pastor called Terry Horrell.... Terry (from Grande/Coal Mine area) also had a blue bug with a 2180 (GEX built) that used to mooooooooove!!!

At one point the St Hill family at the same time a prestine 1975 Peugeot 504 (white) a 73 blue 504, a Pontiac Parisienne Coupe and the dad (RIP) had a lovely deep red '81 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Coupe.

I know this cuz I used to go to their church (Arima SDA) and used to drool over them growing up. They never owned a Japanese or English car.... only VW's and American

..Gary still has the GMC Blazer on a lift kit (PAM 117 i think)....Deep Silver two tone. like this one:

back door fitment is godawful, and the tailpipe is yucky....rear seems abnormally high as well...Mk2s are supposed to squat, not raise their bamsee
Pretty sure he spent a lot to restore it tho..there's one like this that went under a no-expense-spared resto, but he was the victim of local 'craftsmen' who hid loads of bad work, including the gearbox crossmember, which led to the box dropping a couple of inches while he was driving it....
