I’ve got one. It’s got 6 lug wheels, 2" lift and slightly bigger tires. I bought it basically for looks but I do a lot of ‘lite’ trail driving hauling motorcycles and it works great. Bigger brakes too - I never replace the pads or tires, they last forever since the truck is so light (single cab manual 4 cylinder) and

The 80's have a lot to answer for.

Literally seven words. One of them is a misspelling of the actual product he wants to sell, and another is a grammatical error that should have been stamped out in fifth grade. Beautiful.

OMFG! The 2 tiny, blurry pictures icing on the cake!

That is an objectively excellent headline.

NO LOW BALLERS DONT WASTE MY TIME SERIUS BUYERS ONLY

I'M SLIM SHADY YES I'M THE REAL SHADY ALL YOU OTHER SLIM SHADYS ARE JUST IMITATING!

I am pretty pissed the “duct tape Metro” was a Mk3 rather than the Mk4 they sent down in the FiberFix. I could have used those parts.

It didn’t have the wood trim, but that was my first car! Well, it was a Caprice Classic in two tone gray and a bit older since it didn’t have a CHMSL, but it’s definitely one of my prior cars that I’d love to drive again.

My friend’s parents bought that Z24 brand new. The digital dash was buggy- in that it would just cut out completely and you’d have no readout on how fast you were going, how much fuel you had, etc. It was great! Also, the brakes eventually stopped working, but that was after nearly 20 yrs.

I used to work with a guy that built the same idea out of a Regal wagon. Jammed a boosted GN turbo V6 under the hood. He would drive it to Epping, race on the whitewalls, kick the crap out of the stunned competition, and drive home. It was a beast, until the boost controller stuck closed, went over 20psi, and popped.

Good lord, that thing is glorious. Tell us it has a stick shift and Jalopnik has a new perfect physical ideal...

Hey being a teen in the eighties those cars were badass (except for the Sunbird), and that ad was was awesome. But with thirty years of hindsight you realize what a dumbass you were as a teenager.

I performed a similar trek to VB last summer, only difference is that it was a single toddler + the inlaws in the vehicle.

Real actors. Not people.

I’d forgotten about the “Get on your Pontiac and ride!” campaign.

One of the best SNL commercials of all time.

My mom had one, and we called the A/C button the turbo button because it would get a little more power when you turned it off.

As much as I hated those things, they were super light and shitty enough you wouldn't cry too hard if you destroyed it. On another note, was doing the "drive slow car fast" thing one night and caught the attention of the local police... they were none too pleased that they couldn't catch me until I hit a straight

an under appreciated virtue. We thrashed around in a friend’s for great, stupid fun.
