Let's see....
All I need is an engine, a transmission, some wheels, some tires, a title, some interior pieces, a headliner, some wiring, a radio,...........

 

This dude is smoking BAD crack.

 

That ad has been around for at least two years! From the ads I've seen this person has many other wagons and cars in storage for sale. I keep seeing the same ones over and over must be awfully firm? on the prices. Most look like parts cars, as someone has already noticed,(Krash) they all have many hard to find parts missing. The person says in one of the descriptions if they part it out it would be more valuable than the asking price ugh! I hate that!

 

That guy is a character (understatement of the century) who deals almost exclusively in Pontiacs and has been clearing his collection out for years. He's the one who sold that red '75 no-option Catalina a few years back that in turn got flipped by another buyer on eBay for like 3X the price. I've conversed back and forth with him a half dozen times over the last 10-ish years. His prices aren't completely stupid as they are based on the value of the parts as a whole plus the overall rarity of the car, doesn't mean they're necessarily prices anyone wants to pay unfortunately.

 

Engine shouldn't be a problem, I could be wrong but I seem to remember reading somewhere that 326cuin. to 455cuin pontiac engines share the same external dimensions. I'm not sure what transmission was used in 1962 pontiac. Body-wise and interior to some extent don't look that bad at all.

I've personally applied for and recieved bonded titles from the DMV at a cost of around $300.oo.
It could be a driver for not too bad of time and money.

I can't remember the last time I seen one in any condition.
