Numbers Matching
Not that I doubted it, but while changing the oil yesterday, I verified all the numbers on the car. Motor YT 145119/Trans PY 68 2074 with VINS in the correct places. I verified the Carb, Intake, Heads, Choke, along with date codes. The distributer is almost impossible to see and the alternator is a rebuilt core unit that looks next to new!

The car meets "Survivor" status in my eyes. I know there are a lot of different views on the subject, but it retains "EVERY FACTORY PART" that it left the line with, retains most of it's original paint and still has the complete factory originally installed interior. The car has 132,000 miles on it and the motor and trans were pulled due to sitting for an extended period of time without being started. Even the factory boring 14" full size hubcaps still remain on the car. One would think that would be the first thing to go, but they too traveled the countryside under the car! I drove the car for two hours last night, enjoying a perfect "Sunday Cruise"!!

What a find. My first new car was a 67 (Maroon with White/Parchment interior) 400 TH FireBird. Loved that car, but was too young to appreciate it. You are are a lucky man!

Axle Code "XB"
After searching the rear axle, I finally found the code stamped just behind the brake line! Code XB for an open carrier and a 2:56 highway gear. The original owner said he got over 20mpg while traveling on the highway, now I believe him. Also attached is a picture of the original owners manual, service manual, etc.

Chassis/Underside Pictures
Well, finally got the car up on the rack today. Car is unbelievably clean underneath. The inside of the rails look like new, and there is zero rust on the pans! See for yourself.

Rick..Maybe I'm missing something here but he did this on purpose to illustrate how SOLID the car is.

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.
