I’d lengthen the wheelbase a few inches to make the proportions look a little more natural. Maybe start with a D-Body Fleetwood chassis. Otherwise, dig the concept.

I agree the doors are to short. I've seen finished projects where they've lengthened the doors. One was a 2dr wagon.

You coul start with a D-Body Fleetwood Flower Car and you might be 90% there.

It would have looked way better had they used the 95-96 door/mirror and rear quarterwindow set up instead of that triangulated sh*t.

Had they ever produced it, that would have been cool. To start and end the name as a full size.

They just should've brought the Holden Utes to the US, like they did with the SS, GTO and G8.

Not sure why they didn't, since they were importing anyway. Maybe it was a crash safety thing. I kind of doubt they would have been hot sellers. The SS, GTO, and G8 didn't really post big sales numbers -- the Pontiacs, for obvious reasons.

Just before the bankruptcy, they showed the Pontiac G8 ST, which was basically a rebadged Holden Maloo. They even announced that it would go into production and be for sale in the U.S. Then all the $#!+ hit the fan, as we’re all aware.
