Love the Safari. At 17K, seems a bit spendy.

The price may be a bit high but if it were closer I would certainly check it out.

+plus
$7000 on sheetmetal
$13500 in body work paint
$5000 engine trans
$3000 interior
$5000 in miscellaneous

$60K invested. Hard to justify all those hours at the initial cost.

You're looking at it rationally. Around 2400 made.
Original drivetrain. Doesn't have to be rebodied.
It could also be worth six figures when done?

Frankly, if it's truly a matching numbers original Plum Crazy car... I'm surprised it hasn't already sold at that price.

About Us

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.
