Before my Dad made the switch from FORD to a Pontiac w a '62 Pontiac Catalina (that would eventually morph into a B/MP Drag car) and '67 GP tow car,
I followed the Ford drag team as we had a brand new 1968 Torino GT Big Block...below is from April 1969 Car Craft which I - as a 9 going on to 10 yr old
then - owned a copy when magazine was published new in '69...

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.
