I ask myself this question all the time. It's why I prefer the old Pontiacs. The older ones have more character and fun built in.

I would say that the 455 HO decal on the Formula engines is the best engine decal Pontiac or any car maker ever produced.

There was a 71 or 72 Formula 455HO high option car if I remember correctly in one of the Pontiac mags a few years ago, like a light lime green, no rear spoiler, that was really a nice car.

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.
