RARE History-GM design vice president William L. (Bill) Mitchell had a few Grand Am specials up his sleeve. He built for himself an all-white 1974 Pontiac Grand Am variant with red-and-blue striping, which he called the "All-American." A similar treatment appeared on the Can Am, which Pontiac announced at mid-model year 1977 after some likely inspiration from Mitchell's car. Some 1100 were built on LeMans coupe basics, and one became the pace car for the namesake SCCA race series. Bill Collins and designer John Schinella Collins lobbied to have the Can Am put into limited production after surveying dealers.

The current edition of High performance Pontiac Magazine (April 2009) has a nice photo of the '74 Grand Am All American show car at the 74 Chicago auto show.
