Model and year of this early Pontiac:

Man IDK but the crank start handle is long reaching the engine under the seat. The flex in that thing must be tremendous. The thinking in those days! Maybe a kick starter operated from the driving position so as not to be run over would've worked

I've seen numerous crank holes for under-seat engines on the side panel... but a steel rod should not flex all that much here, IMO. It's certainly possible to have it sleeved...

Year must be '07.

It's actually a 1908 Pontiac Buggy Runabout.

Showing that cab forward design was not a new idea when Chrysler did it in the '90s. So this is some kind of early Oakland? And the engine must be in the middle or back, so it's the Fiero's ancestor.
