I don't get my car out much at all. In fact, so little, many of my friends don't even know I have it. Sad really. LOL

Anyway, last week I spent the time to get it cleaned up including clay bar and polish. My daughter took this picture last Thursday after I was done. It hacked the original 1960's 421 ad. It turned out kinda cool.

Finished the great panel realignment of '24. After I fixed the door gap, I pretty much had to do realign the entire front end. I'm kind of limited with what I could do since the car is painted. I had to make a few compromises, but overall it's better.



We took the cars to a local show yesterday. My son took the day off from work so we could take both cars. Pretty good showing of Pontiacs at the show, but I didn't take any pics. I met a couple of forum members who recognized my car

Went out for a cruise and a kid down the street smacked my GTO with a damn basketball on the curve of the roof , it rippled it . It’s one of those hillbilly basket ball hoops that parents put in the driveway and fill with sand , why ? Use the gd courts in the park that we pay taxes for ! Not the first time that I’ve had to live by a neighbor with one of those trashy hoops .

Time to call the paintless dent removal expert in your area and hand the bill to your neighbor.

That's a pisser... sorry to hear that. Hope the neighbor helps you make it right and you can forgive the kid some day. It's hail season here so those paintless repair guys are more than busy.

Helped make room for Pontiacs-
Spent the weekend and today gathering 1,500 pounds of scrap metal- no Pontiac pieces though! Only got $134, sort of a bummer. Looks like about another 1,000 pounds or so to haul away tomorrow. My century-old farm barn's been collecting junk for the whole 67 years it's been in my family.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
