I had this car in a 1:18 scale model and later used Red Baron as my CB handle. Cool memories

I like how the 62 Bonny sticks out but the Chevy wagon is tucked behind the Firebird

Not a Cobra carrier, but still very cool. Other guy needs no introduction. Is that an 8 lug wheel on the trailer?:

" Cool custom "....the Cook Pontiac. Remember it being in a magazine way back. Sort of a candy lemon yellow color. I think it had a sunken hood scoop in the article I had. Had a tripower 60 - 389 and 4 speed if I remember correctly.
