If that's all it reqires to be cool, you should buy the truck, install a Pontiac engine, then give that crappy Olds 455 to me.

Came off of a 1966 "400" Pontiac, will also fit a 389 or a Chevy 396.

As long as you guys realize the car's limited to 65-mph. Above that, the front wheels won't steer because the spoiler's mounted at such a steep angle that the front end lifts like you have a couple of tons loaded behind the rear wheels.

Spoiler would probably crush the roof soon after the front wheels got lite. Safety feature. That and the yellow paint.

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.
