Pontiac was pretty proud of their new engineering feat

Hagerty did an article on the history of the SBC. I scanned it to see if they credited Pontiac Engineering with the idea for the rocker arm on a stud arrangement. They did.

That would make for a nice poster on the garage wall.

Or a T Shirt..................

15 years ago, (2005), when I first started Indianhead Acres Pontiac Tees, I would have used that for a T shirt if I had known about it. I did have a StratoStreak shirt I designed:

Nice Brad! I saw one of these in an antique shop about a year ago, but didn’t buy it.

That would be an easy one to make a retro metal sign out of. Would add it to my garage wall for sure.

So you wouldn't wear it on a shirt Mike, only on a metal sign?

A lot more people see it on a shirt as opposed to a sign hanging in a garage, Look at thre R.I.P. shirt, you wore that one out.............LOL

The shirt is great too. I wear Pontiac related T-shirts all the time. I bet that Pontiac Coffin shirt has been washed 400 times! I have various vintage signs all over my shop too. They are all re-pops, I can afford original ones. They still look neat.

X2. Not exactly sure WHY I'd prefer over a poster though.
