LA to Vegas would still be a lot of fun in that baby, let alone back in the day. We had a 1968 Sedan Deville back then for Vegas... last year for stacked headlights.

----That would be a strong Pontiac done, Charley! My old 64 Grand prix sold for $99,900 about a year and a half ago at a Mecum auction in California to give you an idea what these cars are capable of. Unfortunatly, it was long after I sold it for $50,000......Bill S

Love these cars!

I am at the moment trying to educate myself on the Toronado and Eldo's transmissions (chain drive?) and how they could handle so much torque (in some cases well over 500 ft-lbs, I think even more that what I thought was the king of the hill, 70 buick GSX!). That's got to be one hell of a chain!
