Re: Pontiac Farago
its basically a concept car..
"The car was designed by Frank Campanale's uncle Paul Farago in 1969 as a styling exercise and prototype for the establishment of Farago's Coggiola coach building company. Hence the "CF" for Coggiola Farago. Paul Farago was a Chrysler Engineer and had supervised the construction of the Chrysler Ghia cars in the 1950's and 60's. He also helped design the Maserati Ghibli, which is similar in appearance to the long hood short deck design of the Farago Pontiac CF 428."

Re: Pontiac Farago
I've seen that car many times at the Woodward Dream Cruise, and I'm sure I have a magazine article about it in MotorTrend when it was first built. But without going thru dozens of magazines, I really don't remember much about it. But Pontiac GP does ring a bell.
I think Rayth nailed it.
