Check out this photo, which I blew up. The pit guy isn't even wearing a helmet, just fashionable hat! I also wonder what that elbow pipe is next to him? Looks like an exhaust elbow, but perhaps a fuel filler?

Pecan block flooring. Almost completely gone now in modern factories. My plant recently tore up the last remaining aisle that was pecan. Those blocks would eject themselves out of the floor when wet.

They are slippery when wet, and greasy, too.

I used to take my shoes off and set them in the pickup box before I would get in my truck at the end of each workday (...and it had vinyl flooring).

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.
