PONTIAC GRAND PRIX HARDTOP

-

Holden dealers in major cities ran a lucrative sideline during the 1960s, importing and converting cars from the USA and marketing them as a step beyond the locally built Chevrolets and Pontiacs. This Grand Prix with its wheel on the right-hand side of the cabin would have been one such car; offering frills such as power windows and seat and almost certainly air-conditioni­ng. The mighty did fall a long way however and $10,500 asked for an old dinosaur in a depressed market was probably $3k too much. Today though, these cars are back in fashion and prices have climbed.
