Neat car in good colors - sounds like the paint quality leaves something to be desired. IMO this one would look mint in stock trim - don't much care for the 17" wheels on a car that was so well designed out of the gate.

I am no Pontiac expert but, does this car have a lower valance panel for a 1973 Firebird?

----My outlook; 17 inch wheels are OK if they have tall enough tires for the car. This owner chose the wrong height tires. You have to fill up the wheel wells or the rubber band tires just don't look right!..….Bill S
