Unless it is a crazy museum, this is an interesting piece of history, but not worth the 30K.

JEERS!

Yeah, pricy.

These come up in decent shape for about 1/3 the price, so I'd pass... but I do like the '67s.

Radical...the front end looks like it's been bent inward..

^ Bumper's been smacked at the lower center.

Jeers, tho I too like the P-67s.

No.....

Ideal for a Pontiac fan w/ a big family that doesn't want a 16 passenger van...

This should be sold to the Duggars, with 19 and counting they could use a vehicle like this.

Or a Mormon family here in the East Valley...

Interesting curiosity, but a jeers due to price.

A school where I grew up used Checkers for many years. Most were the standard cab version (in blue), but they also had an 8-door wagon. Wonder what happened to that thing.

I wonder how many other 8 door wonders were produced but never really brought to the attention of the public. I cannot imagen that only a few vehicles were built like this.

It is a nice job of cutting the car in two and stretching it for that time period.

I wonder what that tiangle thing is on the interior roof???

They probably were semi-common for a while around large airports....these are the predecssors of the shuttle vans in use at airports by hotels, etc today...

There is a '71 also on eBay...
