The current owner has had this beautiful Pontiac since 2006.   The car has been carefully maintained and repairs were made to the brakes and suspension bushings.

This Pontiac had a professional quality restoration starting from a complete and rust-free California car. shown on a posterboard in the pictures. Removing the paint to bare metal revealed that the car was originally built with the striking red over black two-tone that it carries today.

The car has outstanding paint and body work.   Although the paint is 10 years old. the paint and panel fit is still nearly show quality today.   The interior was replaced with new Star Chief patterned vinyl seats. carpet. headliner. and door panels.   Most of the chrome on this car is flawless.

Mechanically. the car is mostly original.   The 287 CI engine has the optional 4bbl Carter carburetor option. The generator was been replaced with an aftermarket alternator.   The car has its original HydraMatic transmission.   It sometimes races between shifts or shifts abruptly. probably a consequence of the limited amount this car is driven.   The engine is strong. quiet. and does not smoke.   Brakes and suspension components have been gone through and work very well.   Tires are new Diamondback WWW radials.

This Pontiac is loaded with original features.   It has a radio. heater. bumper overiders. and the iconic lighted Indian head hood mascot.    

All this car needs to be a top level show car would be engine compartment and undercarriage detailing.   But it is a very impressive and enjoyable car just as it is.   It needs nothing to provide a collector a fine and unusual car that will be very welcome at any collector car event or gathering.

I am placing this listing for a friend. If you have any questions. please contact me and I will try to get them answered promptly.  The car is located in Albuquerque. NM. just a few miles from the airport.   You or a delegate are welcome to inspect this car personally. just let me know and we will work out the details.

Your bid is a contract. please do not bid unless you are willing to complete this transaction.   We believe the reserve is reasonable but do not plan to reveal it.   We reserve the right to end the auction early for local sale. but we expect to keep the auction going for the full term.
