I'm down the road in Fresno, and haven't seen any of those cars before at the Madera and Clovis annual Pontiac/Olds shows (next weekend in Clovis!) Thanks for the post, and like the 'Day 2" look of your '69!

I've seen the 2+2 last year...nice car for sure, That's Ron Berglund. I met him yesterday as he was recruiting cars/people for next Saturday's POCC show. I signed up last week so I'll be taking the trip south. Trying to get my friend with a '70 RAIII TA to go, but not sure.

Thanks for the compliment Jeff, you going to be there?

I met Ron a few years ago at the Castle show right after he purchased the car. Beautiful ride. I'm attempting to be down at the show next week in Clovis. Keep an eye out for a 68 verdoro/ivy gold GTO.

Will do. You can see what I'm driving. Can't miss it...lol! When walking around, I'm usually packing a large camera/lens and a cane.

Me thinks the 60 Ventura looks pretty sweet along with a couple of others.

Quite a few years ago I almost bought a twin to this from a guy named Allen Fay (sp?) out of MA. The car had 95% of its original paint and I have regretted not buying it ever since. Thanks for the pics.

Didn't take a lot of pics. Just the Pontiacs and the older Mopars, since I own one. After the fact, I wish I would have taken more.

I recognize the '68 and the 3rd gen Firebirds. I've seen them at a couple shows in the Modesto area.

I'll be there, Mike. Driving my '67 GTO, but not entering it. Burgundy with a black top. I'll be hanging out with WillslowGTO, who's on this forum and has his '69 GTO entered, which is a survivor car he just got back on the road. If I run into you I'll be sure to say hello!

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world.

Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
