 The 230 is a Chevy motor, right?  Nice price on that car. It looks good.

Thanks.  I would put this up as an example of my good bodywork.

The whole Chassis is Chevy Biscayne, even the wheelbase and trackwidth is wrong (for a real P ontiac).

Yeah I thought so.  Ad referred to it as a Pontiac motor.  Amazing what lengths GM went to, as I recall the body panels won't actually swap directly on to a US Catalina, which is insane.

It did say P ontiac 230 on it at one time. Chevy 396 is a ‘turbo jet’ Poncho 396 was ‘astro-flash’ 283 was ‘ econo-flame’.   Top engine option for this car is chevy 409.

I figured.  I believe US Pontiac also had a 230, which was different.

My dad loves Biscaynes so I sent this to him as a troll.

Car looks beautiful, by the way. Nice work!
