Not a Datsun but quite a surprise for the seller. The opening bid was $500. Rusty old car, no engine or transmission, evidence of a racing history. Pretty cool story this car almost went to scrap metal. 1 of 6 ultra rare Pontiac SD Tempest cars in 1963. Be sure to login to eBay (if you have an account) to see all 38 questions from the buyers.

Yeah, I saw that on Bring A Trailer last week. Incredible story, and quite a find. The selling price is all the more amazing since the seller had no clue what he had.

Wow! what a great story...
