The Grand Prix looks like a cream puff deluxe.
About 4 months between build and the time sold to Hoover Pontiac.

Great collection of a broad range of Ponchos.
Thanks for sharing the pictures with us.

Thanks to PHS we see quite a good amount of these vested employee company cars.
Very exceptional to see a 69 - 70 company driver over 5500 .
Most of the uncapped guys or higher capped guys were probably getting loaded Bonnevilles and most of us don't follow those cars very heavily.

I think considerations were probably given not to go too nuts because they eventually were going to have to find buyers for these cars.
8track, wood wheel, cruise control could have pushed this one up to 6500

This first buyer of this car might have also done an insider deal getting it equipped how they wanted by a friend or contact within PMD zone 25.

Yes. The Can Am is behind the hood in the garage. The previous owner removed the front clip when he installed the balanced and blueprinted engine. I had the seats reupholstered and haven’t worked on it in a while. It has a rowdy 400 with a 280 Comp Cam, ported 6X heads, headers, a 3500 stall converter, and a 3.23 posi. Car is loaded up with pw, pdl, tilt, cruise, and power trunk release. All original engine with machine work by Race Engine Design in Chattanooga, TN. They were one of the best but sadly now out of business.
