Oh, and by the way Brew, I did drive my "trailer queen" Sunday! I put Stabil in the tank, filled her up with gas and aired up the tires as I put her down for the winter. I put about 12 miles on her and it was...nice!

As we do with most photo's, I think it needs to be picked a little. I noticed that one sock is higher than the other, and it's not a clear picture, but I think the left shoelace is a repo. Congratulations, ting ting.

Hmmmmm, I see Woodards car in the back ground and I have my 2005 Gathering of the Birds Shirt on but dont recall where it was taken. Thinking Norwalk ?
Notice this car is my automatic car that has NOT been restored so not sure why its on this article? Nice socks huh there Greg, one leg was broken really bad thus doesnt hold up a sock like the original. Can you tell the restored leg? 12 miles WOW DICK, thats impressive! I'll be playing with mine next week and placing her into hibernation after a complete rub down. Might even run her a mile or two in order to blow out the exhaust system. Who knows maybe I'll get lost and have to drive it further????? Enjoy and I'll have to go out and buy that mag, Brewster |

Brew:
I agree with you that the picture is from Norwalk. I remember that we parked back to back with the tent in between the cars. That is where you won Editors Choice award and got to stroll down the drag strip. Nice socks BTW!

Kudos to you for driving your car...and walking 12 miles at a flea market. Speaking of trailer queens, hey Brew, did you find that magazine?

Dick
just busting balls. I can't say for sure what I would do if I had a trailer queen as I haven't owned one. One day, maybe. I agree with you regarding those green cars. |

Hey, Hey, Hey, lets stop picking on the green cars already!
Everyone cant (or want to)own an arrest me red cruiser. Heck, If I was driving a red car that cop would have thrown me and EV in jail for dragging in his town. Sh!ti I have not seen the mag yet but hope to latter this week when I head south for biz. Also going to work on my TQ car Wednesday at the Evboco and look forward in driving it a couple miles. Twelve seems a little much down in the flat lands with all those dum-@sses running around. It would be just my luck as to have some van full of out of towners crash into my green car. Time for Hibernation, Brew |

Urban Legend?
Has anyone ever seen an actual factory installation of the "K" cam (RAIV grind) in a SD Bird? I've been reading through old magazine articles and saw that some authors mentioning 12 or so early production cars slipping out with the "K" cam. I've personally never seen one and didn't delivery of the SD's start in late May, well after the mid-year emmissions compliance fiasco? I'm sure this is all myth, but????

I asked this question of John Sawruk (RIP) a few years back. He checked with his sources and the answer was no, none were ever sold to the public with the "K" cam. I may even have that email someplace... I can also remember reading somewhere that none of the '73's ever got out with the "K" cam but I don't think I could put my hands on it. Anyone else have any info?

Will be packing my tool pouch in case a tooth needs pulling. Look forward in seeing you bros and Craig I have the WHITE COOLER!
I heard of rumors of some early cars that had the cam and paint different before the feds pulled the plug but I have never seen them. Rumors are rumors and non might have been sold to the public originally but what about gm executive cars floating around? its possible but doubtful. Brew |

F & S, Bring the screaming LS5 by and will get those dentures back in.
Brew, I guess you will be the first to test the new lift out for detailing duty. I agree with rwinkles, I thought the K cam car myth was debunked in a Pontiac rag a few years ago but I don't remember which one or what issue. Doors open at EvBoCo for test, tune and detail about 3:30 this afternoon. Local Py'ers welcome to join. Norwood, got any beer for that White Cooler?????? I'll see you boys there. Later on brothers..... SDD

Brewster called you out with the White Cooler. He just never stated that there would actually be beer in the Cooler, but I think I got that covered if Bill and Paul did not clean out the beer fridge.  SDD / EvBo / Dave

there was a guy in the dayton trans am club Bob Blair.he was an old racer that had pontiac contacts who held nhra records for a 69 428 GP.anyway when i joined the club Bob and i kind of hit it off and talked alot about his car.when the SD came out he ordered it from the factory to replace his 69GP.it was a very early striped car that he was planning on racing.when he saw how few were built he kept it stock and bought a 74 SD for his son which is another story.back in the mid to late 80's muscle car review did a feature on his car with it on the cover(red trans am).i didn't see it,but he told me he once pulled the front cover off to check the cam and it was the bigger K cam.he had no reason to lie as no one cared back then,he just wondered what it had,as i remember he ran high 13's to low 14's with street tires.got to ride in it once and fell in love with the 455's.
not swearing this is right ,just swearing this is what i remember.

Sad Day in Texas!
Lloyd sold the SD car to a fellow PY member. Sorry to hear that his slow business forced him to sell the car before he really had a chance to enjoy it.
The buyers name is being withheld so that he can announce the purchase on his own time. I wonder who it could be..................

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.
