I used to work with a guy that bought a new T/A in 76. Watched it on the highway in his vending truck as it went to the Flint dealership. Funny art is that he was so cheap he would pay the $44(I think) for the screaming chicken hood decal. HE drove for a couple of years with the 400 PONTIAC and then swapped that for a 462 Oldsmobile built by a local drag racer. It had an experimental aluminum intake and exhaust manifolds.
It's been few years since I saw him but he still had it at that time. We put a Flowmaster exhaust system on it at one point. Last time I talked to him it had about 40000 miles on the car. The original engine was in his shed with about 10000 miles if I remember correctly.
It was like a time warp back to 76/77. He still had the 8 track unit he had installed right after delivery. I always told he should talk to a Pontiac magazine to do an article on it but he never did.
