So, Pontiac did in fact make one, just not this one. I thought I had stumbled upon an original prototype by Pontiac on Hemmings. Thanks for explaining. So it's a clone of a prototype. I enjoyed all the guys comments about it too. When I first started reading about it I was expecting it to be something from Canada. Interesting.

I didn't think that Pontiac had actually built one, haven't seen any factory photos or other info on one anyway.

This custom built one has been on several sites with different owners for the last few years.

I like it too, wouldn't mind driving it!
