Sometimes a mechanical restoration makes more sense than trying to fix every rusted panel and restore the car to perfection.

Make it roadworthy and don’t sweat the small stuff.

Crank it until it starts.

Don’t crank it so long that you overheat the starter, do it in a few steps.

What’s the big deal, it’s only been a few months and nothing special needs to be done.

You mention putting the car cover on if you stop.

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.
