Drive shaft might be 3 feet long. With that short wheelbase "Rides like a Cadillac" my foot, more like a po-go stick on wheels.

How about this Samba? It's going to be restored becuase it was the second one produced..
I know these are bringing big money now and this one has historical significance... but DAY-UM! Related article- https://www.hemmings.com/blog/2017/0...on/?refer=news

Restoration will be centered around the data plate rivets, the metalfinisher will need to be consulted on this one!

Yeah. If you read the article, they've already contracted a British coachbuilder and they are excited that they actually found ONE of the plexiglass corner windows in the junkpile!

I'd be shocked if the seller actually knew a Super Duty from any other engine. If he did, you can believe that he'd have more pics of the engine than the car.
Not saying I wouldn't check it out if it were nearby though.

I'm sorry, but is it an ultra rare dealer installed Ram Air V personally owned and raced by Jess Tyree? $100,000?

The chalk marks on the firwall are more for the guys who would ask "Any truth to the rumor that the inspector in Kansas City was left handed?", not for the type of guys who would put an Edelbrock carb (2 of em, no less) on. I was surprised to see that. I do think it's a cool car, though.

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.
