Not sure who would take on a project like this, but I know there's more than a few. 57 Pontiac Chieftain at $7.5K BIN OBO in SC.

It may not be NM. but a 100% NM car is in a different class costing more $$. Agree it's on the high side, but I'd love to own this car. It is a real 455 HO Trans AM 4 speed, which isn't all hot rodded up.

Here's a real war horse. 70 Lemans in NY from a seller with 0 feedback for $3.8K NR. This is how a Pontiac earned a reputation for being reliable. Rode hard and put up wet, I wouldn't want it, but I do appreciate it. Rust is killer and the smell of that interior has got to be dank.

69 Firebird clone in Illinois at $40K BIN. Look at the pic of the rear. Does that look symmetrical? How about the hood stripes. Does that look right? Has an LS engine, and for a clone I'm ok with. The interior looks too shiny, which can be fixed, just like that crap B&M shifter that needs to be replaced. Good and bad, because the body looks tight, but not worth the asking IMO.

69 Firebird 350 4-speed in Pennsylvania at $35K BIN. OK, hear me out, it's green ok, and has white 69 Trans AM like Chevyish stripes, but has a 400 hood. Wait, it gets better, follow the stripes back to the trunk where they cross a Camaro fin! Cool right? I love how they classify its imperfections as "housekeeping items" like rust isn't a thing. I'm being harsh and whoever built this didn't make any money. The stink on this one is not following the stock look and now someone else has to love your dream creation. It's not priced too high for what it is. I can live with imperfections, but those white stripes have to go.

1961 Bonneville bubble top in Minnesota at $25K BIN. All kinds of cool. I love this car. You couldn't build this for 2X the asking price. Good deal if this is your jam.

69 Firebird convertible in Washington for $55K. Nice car, but the deviations kill it. T/A wing looks horrible, the dash gauges randomly added move it away from stock, upgraded brakes which is a plus, and that shiny chrome air cleaner and bling looks awesome for anyone who doesn't know crap about building an engine. Lots of hate I know... it's me. This is a nice car, but not $55K nice to buy your dream. It costs $$$ to build a car like this, but you need to be onboard with the mods and share that dream.

69 GTO convertible 4-speed with a reserve in Florida. That is one beautiful car and I love it being stock. All the toys with the 8-track and 82K miles. So what's the first thing you see when you open the hood? If I owned this car and had the hood lifted up, I'd expect someone to say you know that sticker on the air cleaner is incorrect... right. It's still beautiful and the hideaways rock. The way I read it, the engine is a YZ Ram AIr, and to advertise that, the sticker, so who cares about the sticker? Just sayin' if you took off the sticker, it's pretty close to perfect as far as the whole package with a 4-speed. I would love to own this car.

I owned this car from 1987 to 2009. The picture I attached is from 2003 when my son was 10 years old. I fixed the lazy hideaways with all new vacuum lines and new vacuum actuators. Since my ownership, I believe it was repainted. Air conditioning was added. Someone (NOT ME) added the sticker on the air cleaner. It was a fun car.

That's awesome. I don't mind the path of adding factory options. Very cool car.
