This was my daily driver when my wife and I were first married in the early 80's, 283 2bbl with a power glide. This was the first car I ever painted, I believe the color was called butternut yellow. All the time I had my 67SD asleep in the garage, this car kept my pontiac juices flowing. Sold it a few years later as the family grew.
That looks very similar to the one that went at BJ (Las Vegas?) a year or so ago. It too, was a 283 PG car. I'm sure it can be found in the BJ archives (or in a BJ thread on this site.)

283cid with Powerglide transmission, bucket seats, Pontiac Motor Division wheels and BFGoodrich tires. This little sports car will get a lot of attention when you drive down the road. Very few in the U.S.
Details:
This Canadian built 1966 Pontiac Beaumont sports coupe is a car-lover's dream and an absolute head-turner. This deluxe 2 door hardtop, yellow exterior with black vinyl top is highly detailed inside and out. Under the hood it sports a 283cid engine. Inside you will find the amazing detailing continues. Bucket seats, Powerglide automatic on the floor and AM radio are just some of the interior restoration features. Outside, this beauty sits on four new BFGoodrich radial tires on Pontiac Motor Division wheels.

Could very well be-the one at the auction once belonged to Bill-he got it in Ontario via e-bay-it had come from out west-good car with somewhat low mileage and an amatuer repaint
If I recall, the buyer was from Texas. They had a little segment where the seller was talking to the buyer saying "I wouldn't hesitate to drive this back there"...

Sorry to let ya guys know that I don't believe that was my 66SD at the auction. When I sold it years ago, the young guy put a 350 TH400 in and proceeded to drive the car into the wrecking yard. I don't have any pics of the cowl tag, but I still have a registration for it with the serial number on it.

I like the BJ happily everafter story better than the reality show version...
