It was really raining today and I didnt spend as much time outside today as I did on Tuesday looking at the other cars. It was nice to see all the second gen Pontiac T/A's all bringing good money. It would be nice someday to see one 2nd gen's make it into the inside big dollar tent someday.
Some of the earlier '71s still received the chrome dash bezel rings. My 71 is a 12C VN car had has them. My buddy has January built Norwood car and his had them as well.
