This is a partial liquidation of his collection.

My friend Bill, is the restorer and maintainer of this collection and he introduced me to collector Chuck and I had the pleasure of visiting this awesome collection last month while passing through IL. All of these cars are immaculate, I mean if there is such thing as "perfect", these are!!! Bill will sometimes get the comment about these cars being '"over-restored" and his response is "well as much time and money being spent on this restoration I am not going to do over-spray and orange peel!" .

This link is a video of them and in it is a quote of Chuck's that really drove a reality to me, "we are never owners of a car, only care givers for awhile". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZijWKBDqcVM

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.
