Don, do you have any indication of which remaining stories are in and which ones are out? I'm hoping the SSJ feature Chris, Steve, Casey, and I worked on gets in under the wire...

I can only speak for my own stories but I will call Chris to see what he knows about the articles being discussed here. Hope for the best but don't expect it.

So, what do you guys think of me finishing off the GTO history in Smoke Signals? I was working on the '74 edition when the call came. It was never submitted to HPP so I can do whatever I want with it.

Plus, we have a '74 feature that Scott Scheel wrote for the November issue that he graciously offered to us to use in Smoke Signals. So some of HPP's spirit will live on in Smoke Signals.

Great idea Don. Put the '74 edition in SS. Speaking of living on...ever thought of doing something like a Pavement Pounders Shootout for Smokes? I, along with many others, thought that was a cool part of HPP.

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.
