January 2018 issue of Hemmings Classic Car covered the 2017 Pebble Beach Concours d' Elegance Aug 20 2017.
The Pontiac Vivant Roadster built by Pontiac Herb Adams won first in the American Dream Car class. Powered by a 370" Pontiac V-8. https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...s-jpg.3633088/ https://www.autocar.co.uk/sites/auto...?itok=Rm8t9rpu Second place in the same class was the 1966 Pontiac Powered Bosley Mark 2 Interstate coupe. https://images.hgmsites.net/lrg/1966...00618591_l.jpg https://www.gannett-cdn.com/-mm-/8f2...dream-cars.jpg The engine appears to be a 60 389 judging by the intake manifold/water pump housing http://st.automobilemag.com/uploads/...upe-engine.jpg Vacuum operated Tri-Power; https://fuelcurve.com/wp-content/upl...y-24-of-49.jpg |

Quite clever.
I like that Herb Adams car- hadn't seen it before. 8-lugs are a nice "fit".
