Not a Pontiac but a Chevy.
In 1995 I graduated high school. Picked up a bone stock 1971 Chevelle w/ 350small block off my friends older brother for $500.00.
He was in the adult film industry and threw in a buncha VHS tapes. (Hey I was 17)
Put front brake pads on it the night before driving it from Southern CA to Laramie Wyoming where I attended Wyoming Tech.
Best $500 I ever spent!
