This car reminds me of the little adverting diddy: "Get that great GM feeling with genuine GM parts!"

This is an oddly optioned road hawg with manual 60/40 seat and windows. Nice enough example.

 

Hope that bug shield hasn't left any visible mounting holes on the hood. Another one of those things I never liked and in truth never saw much point in. Keep the leading edge of the hood waxed and bugs don't stick, and with this silly thing you STILL have to scrub bugs off it.

 I believe the idea was to divert the air flow , and therefore the bugs,  over the windshield.  Did it work?  Not very.

I am happy to have one for my 1971 Ambulance.  I don’t worry about the hood, it keeps bugs and rocks away from the $2000 commercial chassis only windshield!  
Mine mounts to the lower edge of the hood, no holes or damage in visible areas.

Wow, that interior looks impeccable. And I kind of like the bug shield. You don't see that often!

This is an example of a model that collectors

overlook, so very few have been preserved.

The 1975-1976 full-size Pontiacs look much the

same, and of all the models and body styles--

Catalina, Bonneville, Grand Ville 2-doors, 4-door

sedans, 4-door hardtops, and convertibles--

only the 1975 Grand Ville convertible is readily available.

 

This green 4-door hardtop looks excellent.

It survived only by chance, and it deserves a good home.

I remember that color; it was pretty popular at the time.  Nice example of a upper-middle family car.  First year for "UNLEADED FUEL ONLY" catalytic converter equipped cars.  An improvement over the stifling emission control systems used until 1974.
