1994 - a 17 year old guy decides it is a good idea to repair the rust holes in the body with sheet aluminum (Humm..easier to bend than steel and wont rust)
and pop rivits, covered with bondo, and thouroughly weather proofed with cheap undercoat.


2011 - a 35 year old guy starts to "restore" the car he drove in highschool back in 1994 and finds the dumb 17 year old did not understand that
aluminum & steel corrode and the bondo & undercoat trap water and help speed up the process.

I'd rather have a time machine than a MIG welder right now.

About Us

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.
