Not mine, but man, I'd love to go check this one out. I imagine these don't surface too often anymore, let alone in driving condition.

I love the ad itself. True salesman there!

Not the first time it has been for sale and with the same identical ad.

 

I drove a couple of these 'suicide machines', in Pontiac form, back in the early '70's around O'Hare!
Biggest problem, back then, was tire and brake technology - they flat wouldn't stop!
Had standard pass. car brakes + tires. When loaded with 15 people and luggage, you had to have another way out
Once, I had a woman panic stop on a yellow @ 50MPH - I had to hit the shoulder and go around her, as no way would it stop!
At least todays brakes and tires would make it closer!

 

Did he add a zero or did they really build 150 (!) of those things? I suppose it's possible if they were dispersed to (many) other markets, but this strikes me as a "specialty" item (think stretched Minis and Corvettes) that would be far more rare than the Cadillacs and Lincolns usually used, and as I see the same one(s) for sale all the time there aren't that many on the ground...
