The classic Pontiac collection belonging to a veteran member of the Navy and also a former member of the U.S. Post Office is now available for auction.




The individual identified as the late Bernie Larson, and understood having been very fond of the Pontiac Trans Am. Prior to his death, the late Pontiac enthusiast had amassed a collection of nearly 20 classic Pontiacs.




All the collections are now said to be auctioned at VanDerBrink Auctions.

According to the auction event, after retiring from the postal service, Larson looked for cars and spare parts to buy.

After passing away last year, his family sold the entire collection of classic cars.

The classic car collection consists of the 1971 Pontiac Firebird, 1973 Pontiac Firebird, and 1973 Pontiac Firebird.

In addition to that, there are also Pontiac Trans Am 1975, Pontiac Trans Am 1977, Pontiac Trans Am 1981, two Pontiac Trans Am 1974, four Pontiac Trans Am 1978, and four Pontiac Trans Am 1979.





Most of the cars displayed at the auction event require an overhaul process to return them to their original condition. Online bidding is now open, while a collection of spare parts can be purchased on June 12th.

Among the spare parts for sale are the classic Pontiac engine, intake, carburettor, and various body panels, including bumpers.
