I don't like that paint color at all, but it is clean enough to be legit.

 

Am I correct that Pontiac did not offer a third-seat option in any of its wagons for '78?

He does not have a buy-it-now. I wonder what he hopes to get for it.

 

Sure, the third-seat was optional on the full size Pontiacs in the late '70s. It became standard some time in the '80s.

 

Thanks. I thought so. But one source I was looking at showed only 2-seat versions available for '78, which did seem odd.

The wagon in this thread IS a two-seater, I believe.

 

It think so, too. The low options likely will lower the appeal of this one.

 

I will say it appears to be like new.

 

I don't mind the exterior color, but on the interior, it looks horrendous IMHO.

 

Strange look, it's like the second generation Caravans my parents were driving just months ago. There's some blue in there but I wonder if it's faded.

 

That interior looks very original to me. That's GM factory baby blue.

 

Yup, the light blue that you can see on the kick panel is how it originally looked new, but it faded to that light blue\grey color extremely fast. Vintage 1978-1980 GM color there, I personally cannot stand it and never liked it.

 

elB I agree with you, cars in nice condition but that color combo! No thanks

 

Bid to $5700 reserve not met with just under 24 hours left.

 

Bidding ended at $5900. It's back with a BIN of $7800. If it were better optioned, he might get it, but othwerise I don't see it happening.
