There is only one image of the interior and it is of little value. The finish, trim, and body panels present without concern. It’s not loud or brash but is stylistically serious. The Cameo Ivory finish, topped off with a black vinyl top and held up by red-stripe encircled Rally II wheels projects an image of refined purposefulness. It certainly did Pontiac well, keeping them in third place in the ’65 domestic production race with 802K units. It’s wearing Fisher Body’s 1965 Coke-Bottle styling, a new and major redesign that Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, and Buick all utilized to some extent that year. This is a long one, seventeen feet ten inches of wide-track wonder, riding on a 121-inch wheelbase. The listing is light on details and the images are only fair at best.

This was the beginning of his tyre import business. His travels, especially across America, put Valentin in contact with those few manufacturers that still made classic tyre sizes.
