Doesn't seem like a very smart thing to do to me. I would suspect one would have to take it apart, unless of course one is crazy.

You're right. He's turned it into an expensive piece of junk. At the very least, he should have sealed all the openings and just blasted the outside of the cover using baking soda or walnut shells or something like them.

Maybe not the most desirable, but a neat car that looks well preserved.

GARAGE FIND!!! This 1969 Pontiac Custom S was my grandfathers & has been sitting in his garage since 1978 when it was last registered. I pulled it out and got it running & its JUST LIKE NEW!!! INTERIOR IS IMMACULATE!!! There are a few scratches & dings on the car but it's pretty much ALL ORIGINAL... 4 door hardtop that has THE ORIGINAL 17,278 miles on it. The motor runs like its brand new. I have the original wheels & tires but I put new wheels and tires on it to make it look nicer (personal preference). I'm selling it because I have to many cars & I'm running out of room for all of them. I DO NOT NEED to sell this but I am seeing if anyone would like it for a reasonable offer. It's DEFINITELY WORTH IT! Call Blake @ 707-337-9631

What wouldn't I give to have had that as my first car, back in 1977.
That is sweet.

Looks like a Hi-Lift jack in the trunk?

You mostly only see things like that from those who live to the North, or of the North (which includes the transients to Fla).

You have to like the High Tech (or is it "GREEN" fill it up when overheating and take it straight to the recycling center) overflow bottle.
And maybe I am not as young as I used to be, but I don't think I could drive any car for long with a "Manual" fuel pump!!!!! As described in the ad.

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.
