What an incredible story and what a ride!!! Pontiac Enthusiast magazine too, I used to get that and High Performance Pontiac magazine in the mail as well! Great video!
@@242bleek the story is, Mac in his old age, gave engine to a guy to rebuild for him. The guy had it forever, until Mac died. The rebuilder guy deadbeats out and keeps motor. Then he also dies. Then recently another benevolent person, buys car and motor from the 2 different owners surviving family members, and is now restoring it, reuniting body with OHC 421 V8 motor.

@@tunnelportterror Wow what a shame. Such a legendary car and engine ended up in the hands of a crook. Hopefully the resto is going well. Is there a way to follow it?

You can see a picture of Mac with the 63 GP and SOHC motor on floor of his garage, in Pete McCarthy's 2nd Pontiac book
How long ago was this filmed? That car is AWESOME, and boy is that engine incredibly rare. Wow.
Very long time ago, Mac has been dead a while
Where did this car end up? I literally cant find a single thing on the internet about this actual car. Only the engine.
