So - let's open the floodgates. A KC built car sent to dealer 11-991 (which would be in the Milwaukee Wisconsin zone). Repop window sticker that says "Royal Pontiac" and Pontiac Michigan final assembly location? No. Could someone from Milwaukee have taken their car to Royal Oak to have the package installed? Stranger things have happened - but perhaps more likely they would have mail ordered the kit and had it installed locally. The engine photos: that's not a 421 block. Those in the know can tell. Could they have used a 389 block and bored/stroked to get a 421? Maybe - but that's not how it was done back in the day. Power steering/power brake automatic trans? That's a tough sell for me. Bobcatted by Wangers/Delorean/Ace Wilson/Schornack? I realize us old guys (including me or my dad) are given to hyperbole when spinning a yarn but I can guarantee Delorean didn't touch this car. Wangers would have been off making speeches somewhere. Ace would have been "up north". Milt would be the one turning the wrenches and getting grease under his fingernails. I'd love to see the receipts. Just my observations. K K

I'm guessing because it is for a different car. K
