My first thought was Justin Beiber, but he's not a soap star.
I had to post it on 'talk to see who it might have been. There was a guy called "Pat" back on .com in Toronto who owned it in 2007, but whether he is famous or not, I don't know.

A little sleuthing and I find that indeed, this Pat guy was in a teen soap called Degrassi

Sept 81, #3802, that's a late black interior car I'm guessing?
Looks in good condition, and depending on how mechanically sound it is, and also
what its like underneath, should easily make its auction estimate based on what
cars have been achieving lately.

It looks good car to me, as to what it will make is anyones guess. Prices at auction could be any where following the Channel 4 show.
If you've got £25k and can get to see it first………why not?

Wonder what the price got to?? according to the 'lot list' it shows it as not sold. The guide was 23-25k IIRC
