Sad stuff. Hard to believe it was more profitable to waste all those good parts than it was to find some dirt. Different time, I guess.

That's in roughly equivalent condition to my '70 Catalina when I bought it, and I paid $5500 for mine. Granted mine is an original 4bbl car, but I would still definitely jump on this one if I was in the area and had money to burn. This car could be flipped for probably twice what this guy us asking after a little TLC and to the right buyer.

I drove right past where the '66 Lemans 'parts car' and '72 Super Beetle 'project' are (within a mile or two) yesterday on a one day road trip.

Haven't we seen photos of that 86 truck before? It's not bad but it needs a 65, 66 or 67 GTO hood on it. Those 22" rims make me wanna .

There’s someone on here who mentioned seeing it on the road occasionally. If it was local to me, I’d be tempted.

That pickup truck is intriguing as heck to me , for some reason.
Chopped roof , and a better wheel/tire package - I think it would be killer.

Maybe even french in some 67 tail lights into the tailgate.
Rows of LED sequential bulbs inside the tail lights.


I better stop

We had a truck come in the shop I worked at years ago. It had two truck front ends on it from the same year, attached back to back. You could hardly tell if it was coming or going.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world.
