Very nice looking car, Pontiax, and a hardtop to boot.  That color is a killer, especially on the greatest year Pontiacs ever built!

Excellent choice for your engine upgrade over a stock engine. I've got a Dart block in my '64 CS with a 396 stroker kit, matched to a factory, 4 speed Muncie. As you well know, there is no shortage of power and performance here.
Happy cruisin'

Wow is right..how the heck did you get the rear wheels look so centered in the wells and not have them rub at the front lower well ? had 15 / 50's on mine and had lots of room at the back of the well but rubbed on front..very sharp !!

Good eye!

 Its a fault with all X frame cars, i had to lengthen the trailing arms 1 1/4 inches. And then i used adjustable upper arms.

Im using a inland empire 2 inch slip yoke 2 pc. Driveshaft.  This allowed the 275-60-R15 to fit with 1inch plus gap in front of the tire.

Great patience and well worth that extra time as it is gorgeous. I remember talking to you about it a few years ago at the Winnipeg coffee meet on my way through. Rims are killer. Very tastefully done. Good job Pete.
