Some Forgotten one or two year wonders from the '70's that might be cool...

There's a lot of cars that only had a model year or two for whatever reason, but some of them can be great bargains today. Some of these from the '70's are largely overlooked, but are great performers. # 1. 1973-75 Pontiac Grand Am. Based on the "A" body LeMans chassis these were touted to have the performance of a Trans Am and the luxury of a Gran Prix. Unfortuneately-luxury buyers bought GPs and performance buyers bought T/As. However-their a great deal if you can find one, front disc brakes, wrist-thick front and rear sway bars, and 400 cubes standard with 455 optional. And any suspension or brake upgrades that fit a Chevelle fit these cars. # 2. 1972-73 Mercury Montego GT. Based on the Ford Torino platform these fastback coupes are great looking-David Pearson won a  bunch of Nascar races in one. Most will have 351C motivation, but there are a few 429 models. Dynamite if you can find one. # 3. 1974-76 AMC Matador coupe. These swoopy fastbacks had moderate success in Nascar-and most had 360 or 401 cubes under the hood. Not as sexy as a Javelin, but way cheaper. # 4. 1974 Pontiac GTO. Based on the "X" body Ventura-these are often called the best Nova ever built. Front disc brakes, front and rear sway bars, a Trans-Am style "Shaker" hood scoop and a 350 Pontiac backed by a 4-speed or a TH350. A 400 or 455 is a bolt-in swap. 7,058 were built, so there's some around. #5. 1975 Plymouth Road Runner. Plymouth put a "Beep-Beep" horn and Road Runner emblems on a 2 dr Sport Fury. 318 models are dogs, but the 400 versions can be made to really run. Rougly 6,000 were built, and Mopar Freaks snub them like the plague so you should be able to buy one cheap. Mastermind
