    I like it. I've always liked those 67-70 fullsized Pontiacs. But then again, I've always thought Edsels were cool - maybe I like cars with noses. The best nose? a '40 LaSalle coupe like my dad had - another one of my lottery dream acquisitions. But right now, I'll have to settle for the 1:18 model in my display.

    Is it me, or is $14 k kinda light for this car. That seems almost reasonable.

    No for some reason full size Pontiac's after the 64 model year still do not sell for much $$$$. They are increasing a bit as 5 years ago that would have been a $10-12K car at best. So almost $15K is a small raise in value.

    Now 1959-64 full Size Pontiac's do better about twice as well.

    I think this was a well bought car. A nice cruiser

    Well you and Elb are the Poncho gurus so I always defer to those that know. I agree very well bought as I have seen a lot lesser cars for a lot more dollars.

    They really do. Everyone wants a '62-64, with the '65-66 cars doing decent as well. '67 has some things going for it but the '68-70 cars are really hard to sell for big bucks (I picked up a '69 4 door fully loaded for a song earlier this summer) with the '70 being the absolute lowest value car. The '71-76 big cars also do not have a strong following outside of the wagons and the donk crowd.

    This particular car I think did quite ok for the seller because the paint is a hard to love color for a lot of people these days. The nice interior with buckets and console is an awesome addition. 10ish years ago you could pick up a very nice full size '67-70 big Pontiac for less than $5,000.
