Exterior
The car wears a high-quality Metallic Red two-tone finish that accentuates the Handyman’s long, clean body lines. Chrome bumpers, restored brightwork, and classic Pontiac badging remain intact, giving the wagon a show-ready presentation. The split tailgate, wraparound rear glass, and low roofline create a distinctive silhouette. It rides on period-inspired polished alloy wheels wrapped in modern radial tires. The paint and body show beautifully, with excellent panel alignment and consistent gaps throughout.Interior
