    Nothing like rare Pontiacs! Always like the cars you rarely see.

    C👀L project! I like the Atre taillights. Back in high school a buddy shoved a 400ci Pontiac in one… never got a proper rear end under it. Fried the one tire pretty good before the rear end gernaded. Passed hands a few times locally, then never heard about it again.

    I purchased this car brand new, and modified it with rear Gabriel hijackers air shocks, sixties series tires and rims and seventy series front tires and rims, and a Thrush muffler and tailpipe exhaust. It retained it's four cylinder engine, but was a blast to drive and show off in town. My car was lime green. Sure miss that car for it's simplicity. Two years ago I saw one for sale, a burgundy colored one in the town I live in. It was a hatch back, mine was not. Oh the memories.

    My first car was a '76 Hatchback, cream color, auto and AC. Awful build quality and very very unreliable.
    Brings back memories. Paid $1,750 for it. Five years old with 27,000 miles. This was when little cars sold at a premium.

      @@Wrenchingwithray then, you sir, got a great deal. Now the real question. What are you going to do with them? I know there are Vega guys out there who love their cars. I also know that there are rabid Pontiac guys. As aside, my sister had a 1970 Pontiac Tempest… that she wrecked.
