Miller Mystery Firebird and Detroit Autorama
 

Incredible weekend at the Autorama. Hundreds of beautiful cars and even more nice people.

Went with a good friend who grew up there. Just recently finished his car so we may bring it back next year.

Ran across this lovely gem sitting there, a piece of lost racing history I had never seen before…

Would like to say thank you to Tony Karew and his partner for spending a good 20 minutes sharing background info on the car. They were super cordial and the car is really a time capsule to see.

So if you get by the Pontiac Transportation Museum be sure to find Tony, and look for this car.

Thanks for sharing it with us . Cool Bird

Man anytime!

Lots of Mopar stuff there, and I have to say, I guess I’m used to being at home where there’s only 1 or 2 Pontiacs ever around.

There were quite a few Pontiacs represented (some 12 or so) and all of em were really nice.

Definitely going back next year.

Was this car for sale in NJ?

Boy, what about the Lincoln Continental group there? I have never seen so many in one place. Downstairs had a bunch of cool station wagons. It was great.

I believe they did buy the car from out of Jersey, but I do not know that for sure.

There were in fact at least 20+ Lincoln’s there! I’ve never seen that many in one place either, except maybe a factory photo outside the plant.

Quite a few really nice G.T.O’s there. There was a pretty blue 64 that caught my eye, it was nice!

As far as old race cars go I did leave a fellow out, with a nice 60 Pontiac Ventura. Since I recently came across a 62 wagon, it was nice to see this in its livery, with a really old pair of piecrust Firestone slicks.
