Well I won't be there without the racing but I'm glad to hear it's rescheduled for Feb.
Does Feb include racing? We like to race and show the cars. Providing it's not snowing up here, I can do Feb. |

I was planning on making this event, for weeks now. Got a call Friday and it seems that now I'm headed out to bring a drillship from Trinidad into the Gulf of Mexico. Leaving this Friday and won't likely be home in time. My '67 GP is ready. Damn. Going to have to wait for the February event. Thanks for all your hard work putting this together Steve.

I have it scheduled. I also have a pile of parts I should bring along. Excited about swap stuff. I remember the old PH events at Speedworld had an awesome parts swap area.

However, those laws/rules have been rescinded so, we can not sell used parts at my swap meet without a permit/license! This is great news but, it will take some time to get the word out. Last years' event weekend was the first time I was able to run the events under the new policy and we had a dozen or so vendors. For the Feb event weekend, am expecting it to grow further. For this Sunday, people can bring out some parts to sell and also get to enjoy the day. Looking forward to seeing everyone and the weather looks nice for it. Also, am expecting the autocross to grow this Sunday as well. Last years got off to a good start and Chris Hall is in charge of running it so, we know it will be a good time.

I posted something wrong and misleading here that needs to be clarified.
Somehow, I posted the word "not" when, I intended to post "Now". So, to clarify, and to correct my prior post that I cannot edit- However, those laws/rules have been rescinded so, we can now sell used parts at my swap meet without a permit/license! This is great news but, it will take some time to get the word out. any questions, best to email me direct or call steve@pontiacheaven.org 480-899-7873 sorry about this. Quote:

Do you live in Jerome?
That's a stone throw from me, I'm just on the other side of Mingus by the old Yavapai Fairgrounds. I swing over to Jerome fairly often. Matter of fact, took the off road way in a couple weeks ago to grab lunch at the Haunted Hamburger. |

Sounds great! I don't have a running car to show, but I'll be there as a spectator.

Best Western Called.....
Steve, you may want to give Best Western Hotel by Firebird a call. They just called me to tell me that your event was cancelled and moved to February. I corrected the person and told her that this weekend was indeed a go. I had made a reservation for Saturday night and she thought I was coming tonite for 3 nights.
I told her that indeed there is a Pontiac Heaven event this weekend but it would probably be worth a call to their manager to straighten them out. Hunter

What a Great Time!
Steve, thanks again for all you hard work putting together this meet. Beautiful day, LOTS of wonderful Pontiacs, great folks and, not sure how you did it, but the military jet flyover was a big bonus ;^)
Wanted to mention that, we talked about my car running hot, detonation, timing, etc. Before we left the meet, I pulled out my toolbag and popped my hood to retard the timing in my GP and the gent with the red '70 GTO convert (Dale?) came straight over to ask me if I had everything I needed. Never met the guy before, but he stayed there and discussed the same topic while I moved the distributor a tad. That's the kind of people one runs into at these Pontiac shows. BIG thanks again. See you in February! Hunter

A big thank you to Steve for putting on another great Pontiac Heaven show! My car is still mostly in pieces and I couldn't bring it, but it was great to check out the Pontiacs of others. The weather was great, everyone was friendly and it looked like a great turnout! I brought my dad with me and he really enjoyed it too.
