just got a great phone call,
I had restored a couple of Pontiacs over the last year for a customer (he owns all/most of the Burger Kings in Az.)
1) 1966 Pontiac Bonneville Brougham
2) 1970 GTO convertible
both outstanding cars to start with but needed some TLC on the paint jobs, interior and the motor compartments looked like drivers, I pulled both cars engine compartments completly apart, did my research as to what was supose to be what color and what stampings, lables etc. and resored them by the book.

The boss just called and said..THANK YOU!!! both cars took multiple trophys at the Pontiac Nationals this weekend :jumpie
I am so happy for the both of us right now, because I know how hard it is to win a (brand) National event, I was able to do it with my Falcon at the Falcon Nationals in July 2000 and never thought I would be able to repeat like that again.

anyways enough Jabber check outThe cars
and click on the Rancheros, your not seeing double they are Twins, I just finished the automatic and I am off to do the 9k mi stick one after!!!!! Desert Storm :D

hell I don't know it's chevy stuff :rainbow .....your asking the wrong guy :D ...where is that Malibuken dude he knows all about that :rainbow stuff :rotflmao

could be a 72, I have not got my hands on this one yet, it may be they sold the "wagon" in the old version till they had the wagon toolled, I do see a change in the grill if compared to a 72, actually I really don't remember wagons in 74/75, I do remember the change of Malibu,Impala,Caprice wagons in 76, my parents had a 77 caprice wagon...

Definatly a '72 wagon. I don't remember them having an SS but that is the correct SS grill and corner marker lights. Here is a '73....
