Condition
#1 Concours
World-class. Could compete in the world’s best Concours d'Elegance events.
Restored by Scott Tiemann and previously from the Allan Gartzman collection. One of 16 1962 Grand Prix Super Duties. Excellent paint and panel fit. The brightwork is spotless as well. The engine compartment is immaculate and shows almost no run time. The underbody is phenomenal and the interior shows as new. First restored in 1992, and recently restored again. A better than showroom quality example of a rare Super Duty Pontiac.
Market commentary
Sold at the RM Milton Robson collection sale in 2010 for $181,500, a good value for the car's performance and rarity. The result here is in a different ballpark, and we can only assume that there wasn't real money at the reported high bid because if there had been it could have been sold with some gratitude.
