Hey go easy on Pontiac !
My first car ever in 1964 was a 55 Pontiac . 6 cylinder 4 door - dark blue paint with one green fender. Three on the tree. Boy was it ugly !
Paid $25 for it ( from the breadman - he bought a newer one).
Drove it for 1 year and sold it for $125.
Three weeks after the kid bought it from me he jumped a curb and tore the rear end out of it (axles, pod and springs came out in one piece along with some floor).
Now that's the highest % profit I ever made on a car.
That's a sad tale of the first and last Pontiac I ever owned.
