The ad now states its a 396 Chevy Tri-power

A Corvette rear in a GTO. Now that's different spin on modifying a Pontiac rear end. I've never seen that done before.

That is interesting, I remember a Jag rear suspension in one years ago, but not a Corvette. Not really unrealisticly priced if the work is done well.

There is a 65 Chevelle in my area that has what appears to be a Corvette rear hanging under it...have not seen the car up close at any local cruises.....

It may be a great performance upgrade but I don't think I really want to see that leaf spring across the rear of my car when I approach it.

I don't know but it looks like the spring is attached to the pumpkin (as designed?) and only the shocks are attached to the frame...but surely there's more to it.

Dang, that's actually pretty cool...maybe not $10,000 cool, but cool. '68/'69 GTO w/hideaways would be a good one. Same with Dodge Charger.

Agreed. I'm not a fan of the TV part - if it was $2,000, I'd seriously consider buying it for my office and setting it against the wall. (But then I'd pass because I'm generally too cheap for frivolous stuff like that.)

Is that not a clone? Or did the 242 designation start in 1966?

Started in '66. The '5N' on the data plate is usually a pretty good indicator...but I would always PHS a '64 or '65 before plunking down cash.

Seemed a little steep at $2700.00 as I was reading the ad, looking at how screwed up everything was and the Chevy power. Then I saw it was $27,000.00! Wow , times have changed more than I thought, I guess.

no, they have not.

Before I moved I listed my Lucy Blue 71 Sport ragtop with 428 and 4 speed; much better shape than the CL listing for $22k - no nibbles much less bites.

This guy is smoking crack.

Yep. Even aside from the ridiculous Chevy swap, it's also just a post sedan, and odds are it's not even a real GTO. That price is hilariously absurd.
