I used to live near a German guy that had a pristine, red GT parked in his garage. He would bring it out on sunny days.

Obviously a labor of love. I would prefer it without the yellow accents in the interior.
 
A nice piece of work, but all things considered, I would rather have a Miata.

Yes he did a good job, but I doubt he could get more than $20,000 for it.

The 1958 Pontiac high desert survivor is great!

"Great" is not a word I would use for any 1958 model from the Big 3. "Slobmobile" works for me.

Nice color combo on that '58 Pontiac. One styling feature that always bugged me about the '58 Pontiac is how the quad headlight assembly seemed to jut out. It's not as bad as the bug-eyed look of a '57 Ford, but I think it would look better if it was a bit more recessed.
 
Still, compared to a '58 Buick or Olds, I think the Pontiac was the best looking of that trio. Heck, if I had money to burn, I'd take it! Seems like it sold for a fairly reasonable price, too.
 
I know '58 is considered a low point for Detroit styling, but in the GM lineup, I think the only real offenders are Olds and Buick. The Pontiac seems reasonable to me, and I find the '58 Chevy and Cadillac to be attractive.
