Warning--I'm not following the rules! sorry
This a picture from last month of my 4 year old in my old Beatnik Halloween costume from 1963 or 1964. For some reason, I kept it and the box too. It has not been worn since the 60's. I always took care of my stuff as you can see. (Yes, I am an old guy with a wife that is 12+ years younger.) My 8 year old refused to wear it--can you blame him? No, I did not make the little guy wear this trick or treating. Cool............lol. I had to post this dang picture somewhere and didn't want to start a thread for it......................

Third pic, cleaning and gapping a plug.
Any guess on what the second girl is doing under the car? I just hope they're not staged.

my first new car, I was 16 years old...
...68 GTO conv. 4-spd...punished it for 18K miles...traded it 10 months later for a new 69 Chevelle conv SS 396/375 4-spd ...the GTO was tired when I traded it in...it was on it's 3rd set of tires, it had a bent hood, 2nd engine, 2nd rear end, 2 clutches, trans problems, 2 badly bent wheels, torn top(it did that twice), and a bullet hole in the rear quarter...had a lot of fun with that GTO pix 1-4...the GTO, me and my girlfriend pix 5......the Chevelle SS 396/375 4-spd I replaced it with...drove it 80K miles in 18 months...it also needed an 2nd engine, a clutch, trans, and several sets of GoodYear Polyglass tires...this car beat everything the GTO lost to |

...this magazine started my obsession for a 68 GTO...I carried this magazine to school daily, read it over and over again...in the springtime I ordered a new 68 GTO conv and waited 6 weeks for it to be delivered to Wells Pontiac in Richmond In.
...I still have the magazine too |

Hey, thanks all for sharing on this thread. It is turning out to be a fun thread to look up. Some of the comments about new and low mile GTOs going through tires and engines, etc is actually very typical of most all musclecars of the day. Funny how today, everything is 'numbers matching' and all pampered.
Keep them coming everyone. Old pics of just about anything, personal or otherwise. Just interesting stuff to look at. Adding some text to the pic, when possible, just makes it all the better.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
