Fresh in from Montana
Picked this 77 Y82 W72 up the other day. It's all original, #s matching from radiator to rear axle, carb to pan.
It's pretty heavily optioned, including AM FM 8 track, lighted passenger visor, deluxe velour interior, AC, Tilt, Cruise, Defrost, T Tops ect ect. What's weird is it's a manual window car, which I love. Power windows are a PITA. It's 95% rust free, which is cool. Needs a lower quarter on the driver side. It's been off the road for some time now, but I've already got it running again. I'm currently going thru the brakes and changing all the fluids. I'm thinking about cruising it in it's current state until late summer. I'll tear it down then and completely do it over.

Looks like you have a good foundation for your project. There is something about a Bandit car.......

That P1800 didn’t drop anything on it during transport I hope!
Maybe I’ll see it somewhere if things open up more this summer. Have fun with it, looks good. I worked at Tom Connelly Pontiac in Norwood, MA in 1977.

Nice...real nice! Wish the body & interior in my '77 Y82 M21 project was that clean.
Mine is black Lombardy cloth interior as well, going to be expensive to replace the upholstery.

Misterp266, if that was a P1800ES I'd grab it. Yeah the 77 TA is very nice, but to drive a P1800ES is a very nice ride. That last one of those I saw was in Cornwall, Ont back in the late 70s. They're value is pretty good these days. In the 30,000 and up range, depending on condition.
Sorry for the hijack.

Good for you. Good luck with it. I passed on electric windows when I ordered my car. PITA waiting to happen... at the worst possible moment of course.

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.
