NEW PRICE $45K. !!! Forget the tight as a drum, bulletproof documentation. You could not build to this quality as a clone for even close to this number. Contact me soon........... JOHN |

Great car that deserves a bump! I would have liked to see them leave it alone without the stripes, wing and rallys but to each his own. Ed |

Yea, this a neat car in that it is an R/T but stripe delete!! As far as putting back to original, the new owner would have cash in his pockets, becasue the value of the add on parts (radio, console and dated 15"ralleys) would more than cover the switch to orginal sleeper configuration. Or leave it like it is.............stunning...... Will listen to offers. Will take a low mile 1999 Pontiac anniversary TA, 6sp conv. in partial trade. Or a 1969 firebird 400 conv, 4spd John https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif [image]http://media3.dropshots.com/photos/5...711/114534.jpg[/image] |

Your pictures are gone. You can't delete them from photobucket or whatever service you used. We still have to talk about my old Pontiacs. I have the coolest 68 400 4-Speed Firebird around. Give me a call when you're in my neck of the woods. Ed |
