Ahhh. Now you want me to dig up those artilces too.

But first for the same reason Jim was told to stop appearing in the magazines he had to first and foremost promote Pontiac on behave of all of the dealers around the country. Jim had many hats but he worked for the ad agency. Very few dealership wanted to even get near performance. They just wanted to sell sedans.

Remeber at first Royal Pontiac was only a testing ground to see there was an interest in dealerships handling performance equiptment. From there Royal Pontiac really became the high performance distrbutorship to the other dealers around the country.

Give a little time and I'll get you those.
