'74 Super Duty 'Bird Stored in Barn
Here's a '74 Super Duty 'Bird that a barn roof fell on this past winter. Damage was on the trunk lid, rear quarters, roof, and hood & front fender tops. I don't have any "before" pictures, but here is how it looks today, after Geiger Auto Body here in Wisconsin repaired the damage.
I'm no appraisal expert, but this looks better to me than these cars looked in the showroom when new. This is a genuine Super-Duty 455 car. Thought some of you might like to see a rare Pontiac saved from scrap.

the dealer repainted my 78 Bandit when it got to the show room, the body shop said it looked like they painted it in a barn. still had a few dust specks under the hood birdafter they redid it. factory paint sucked back in the day.
I had ordered the car the way I wanted it, and they kept saying they didn't know where it was, 2 weeks after it was suppose to be delivered. found it sitting behind Moorman Pontiac in Dayton Ohio on a sunday when dad and i went for a drive, but no decals at all. talked to body shop, Monday and that is when we found out the story. still have the pictures where I got it home, but missing the stripes around the hood scoop, they got in all the other stripes but those were on back order. only bandit TA I ever saw that was painted metal flake black, it had rainbow flake in it, and looked awesome when washed.
