We picked this Pontiac Can Am as it is one of those cars which is off most people’s radar and proves that you don’t have to spend the kids college funds to get a vintage piece of muscle.
This example will need some work, but is in good enough condition to be a regular driver.
This one isn’t the most prized of the Pontiac line, but it is a rarity in itself and with matching numbers and will be one of those vehicles that will slowly increase in value.
Why not go for something a bit out of the ordinary?
‘Less than 1,400 were ever produced and it is estimated that less than 300 remain in existence today.’
‘A one-owner car.’
‘The original owner purchased the vehicle new in Great Falls, Montana in 1977 where he was serving in the US Air Force at Malstrom AFB (car still has a department of defense access sticker on the front bumper used to get onto base), from there the original owner moved to Kentucky, and then finally to Arizona where the vehicle has resided for the past 3 years. This car was used mostly as a toy and only driven occasionally throughout the decades, it has 77,100 original miles.’
‘At some point the car was rear-ended and the original owner had to replace the trunk and spoiler. He got the spoiler from a donor Can Am but I believe the trunk came from a regular Le Mans. Wanting to get the most out of the Pontiac 400, the original owner did some performance upgrades. The original W72 6X heads were replaced with RAM AIR III heads from a 68 GTO, the rear end gears were changed to 3.73 and he also added headers and dual exhaust system. In 2012 the now elderly original owner moved from Kentucky to Arizona and then transferred the title to his son who had grown up with the vehicle and had a deep connection to it. The son had some general maintenance done on the vehicle and used it very sparingly for the next 3 years. He only put around 250 miles on the car – mostly driving to and from local car shows.’
