Latest 67 2+2 built ? 9 Years, 9 Months ago

The 67 2+2 basket case I am picking has P304288 as the later part of VIN. Wondering with SN 304288 it would be one of the last ..any thoughts?

I'm no expert, but if the production date was late June, that would seem to be about the end of the model year run.
You might try contracting PHS to ask Jim Mattison if he knows the last 1967 production date.
Keep us informed if you find out anything, please.

I have had some messages with Jim but it will be hard to validate. Also I have since received the PHS for the car that was done in 2011. The body cowl tag may be June but the dealer invoice from Pontiac is much later , very late its August 9 1967 !
Also an odd note, so far the engine parts have January dates so it seems the late build car was put together with what was left? Perhaps this early engine was previously in the back and the inventory was not successfully ran thru (FIFO) first in first out and and the older less common WG stick motor sat 6 months ...? Its getting more interesting for sure. I also would like help if the actual dealer it sold at could be identified. All I know is Zone 13 (KC,Mo) Dealer code 437 either in KS or MO .. Thanks

Thanks to Jim Mattison for providing the missing dealer info on this late Aug 9th 1967 invoice 2+2
Zone 13 Dealer 437 is...
A.L. Short Motors, Inc. 400 N. Summit, Arkansas City, KS
Interesting they sold Buicks, Pontiacs and Ramblers ..LOL at least back in 1963.
Also the college mascot is the Tigers and Ark City later hosted the Injun Uprising Pontiac car shows and races in recent years.
I feel even more cool connections with this car now, I will have to get it on the track and take it up there to race !
Looks like the building is no more at 400 N Summit but the name of the street, well that means Summit Racing to me.. another sign !

Great stuff. Some things seem too strange to be true.
