'61 Pontiac Monte Carlo - For Sale!

[Mike999]

Not a typo!  Before the more famous Chevy model was born, the Monte Carlo was a 1961 Pontiac concept car; a very neat 2-seater roadster based on Tempest underpinnings.  Instead of being destroyed, like most concept cars, it became the personal ride of GM's Ed Cole and his son.

That's pretty cool, nice sporty look to it. I like Pontiac and I like Monte Carlos, best of both worlds!

and a hemi just for good measure!

I love it the way it is.

Would not be hard to duplicate in model form.

Way cool concept car I have never seen. I would lose the wire wheels though.

The front end made me think of a ‘67-‘69 Barracuda.?

There's something of the Corvair in there, at least from this angle. I like it a lot but I agree about the wires - they look wrong on most cars from the fifties and sixties onwards, except some sports cars.

Actually more like a 1970 Super Bee than a Barracuda
