Junkyard Find: 1983 Chevrolet Citation

We've seen an '81 Citation and an '82 Citation in this series, so let's continue down GM's Bad Memory Lane with a 1983 version of the car that damaged The General's image even more than the Vega. Somehow, this car stayed on the street— or at least out of the wrecking yard— for 29 years, but now it awaits crushing in a Denver self-serve wrecking yard.
The Citation hung on until the 1985 model year, and… wait a minute, is that a choke warning light on the dash of a 1983 car?
This one has the same 2.8 V6 that went into the Fiero.
Yep, those are molded-in stitches in the maroon vinyl seat upholstery.
