Default Pro touring?

This was listed by a local dealer (who sells hot rods and muscle cars and should know better)

Does it look like a PT car to you? I am thinking the skinny front and drag radial rear tires might be tough on an auto X course. It has a 400, 4sp and stock suspension and brakes.
Asking price is 27k.

And this one was listed as restored.......for only 12k.

What got me going on this was the "9 second PT cars" thread. I get that there are different opinions. But to call this one restored, and the previous one a PT car is just stupid.

So your point is... your looking for a new build, a car that runs nines?

I can't tell if the orange one is restored or not from the pics? That body restored could be worth 12k (maybe)? The first car, is that the new nine PT look...

Thumbs up

I laugh when I see some people put pro-touring in the title of their cars. I look at it, then read the description and say to myself, "Ok?!? So, what's pro-touring about it?!?"

Exactly, I am looking for a nine second PT car.

The body of any late 70's camaro worth 12k?

I just think if you are selling a car you should know what it is for one thing and for another understand what the difference is between "restored" and "hot rodded".
