That's a real good looking '75 in my opinion. This is the one I saw in another post right? Thinking of trading a Chevy truck for it and getting some cash along with it to boot?
It's surprising just how good a car like that can look when you get it out of the weeds and clean it up. Would depend on rust issues for me. If it was relatively solid underneath and if I could drive it home, I'd probably do it. I can see it'll need work but the guy you trade that truck to will be kicking himself when he sees it.

I thought I liked the 77 or 78 models better until I bought the 74 shown here in the pic. It really has grown on me!!!!

Pontiacmuscle, THAT IS COOOOOOL! GREAT FIND!!!
    Dang wj3v, I wish I had your interior! My interior is pretty bad right know. That sure is a nice car! I have a buddy with a white '75. My favorite have alwasy been the '70-'73's but my '74 has been around me for about half my life know (20yrs+) so I fixed it up. It's growing on me too but I still like the '70-'73's the best. My Uncle bought a '77 400 4-spd car new. It was black with 4-spd and white interior. MAN WAS IT COOOOOOL! When we were out in that it was like being in the "Smokey and the Bandit" movie FOR REAL! LOL! I was 12yrs old at the time and I was on top of the world whenever we got in that car! I wouldn't mind having a '77 just for that reason.Please keep your TA's as canyon carvers as they should be. I'm sure that Herb and Sammy would want it that way. LOL

So, Pontiacmuscle, did you do the deal or not? Love the Pontiac two tone interiors. I've thought many times about converting my all black to a black and white one like that.
wj3v, absolutely beautiful car. I think the second gen TAs are the only vehicles that I can think of, that I consistently love in plain vanilla paint. That car is awesome.

Pending....99% positive that I have a buyer lined up for my truck. Have a few details to hammer out first. Owners of the T/A said since I was the first person to come look at it that I have first refusal etc. Explained I have a couple obligations to button up first. Dealing with people like this makes life do much easier.

Greg and to all other curious onlookers; I had another Pontiac deal fall through so I aquired the T/A that I posted pics and have begun cleaning it up, going over it, due to how long the car sat the engine is coming out and going on a stand in favor of a larger non-original engine.

Congratulations! I think you're going to be pleased with that car. Heck, it looks like a driver more than a project car already.

SD Bandit, that's another good looking '74 you have there too.
It really is good to see the '74-'76 Birds gaining popularity nowadays. I find that even most "car" folks don't even know that TAs existed before S&B and the '77 model.

Thanks for the kind words Greg; I hope to be able to take it for a spin before the snow falls. I have a built '64 421 w/ '68 #16s, bored .030 over thats been waiting for a worthy body to go into. Now all I need is a better rear ratio...looks like the rerend MAY have been switched at one point...has a 2.5x Safe-T-Track rear in it...thinking maybe a 3.08-3.42 disc rear? i think Im infected.......

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
