1988 Pontiac 6000 LE Safari driven by Claude Rains.
2 barks and woofs on “DSCN6671”
Is that a 1989-91 era Chrysler TC that would have been beside your Pontiac?
I have my dad’s TC out in the garage. I’m thinking of getting it out for a fall colors tour later this week. No current inspection sticker, but I know a guy, if you know what I mean. They guys who keep it on the road for me can get a sticker on it in 15 minutes, and really inspect it.
Not really very sporty, but comfortable cockpit, nothing you can touch that isn’t leather or wood. 29,500 on the odometer.
Close but not quite. It is a 1993 Cadillac Allante, much in the same vein as the Chrysler TC. Both cars were considered to be outliers; both employed Italian talent in design, both were sold at a great loss, and they even looked alike. While Cadillac had the bodies designed and built by Pinninfarina and flown to Detroit in a modified 747 for final assembly, Chrysler worked with Maserati on both design and manufacturing (the “TC” stood for Two Companies.”) I don’t know how much Chrysler lost on their venture, but GM is rumored to have sunk $24 billion into the Allante. It’s a nice car but not worth that much.
