Automatic. It was way too much car for me when I got my license a couple years later. I got a ticket for going 77 mph in a 45 zone at age 16.

GM 400 cu motor. You could only get the "TA 6.6" until 12/31/79, as EPA outlawed the motor after that date.

I had a friend who had a T/A with the Olds 403.

I thought the shaker callout was 6.6 LITRE on automatic cars. Not doubting, just raised my eyebrows a tad

Gotta see what she can do at that age even though we don’t know what we’re doing other than playing with new and cool found power. Great pic and no doubt good memories for you.
