Cool, it looks like that car was sponsored by Larry Hopkins Pontiac. They were in Sunnyvale CA for a long time. I served my apprenticeship next door at the Lincoln Mercury Dealer.

That's kind of an unwritten rule among the guys I hang out with. Rather than wearing a T shirt with our own name or graphics we wear shirt's emblazoned with our buddies' (or competitors) cars and logos.

Yes, The M/T Pontiac script is now gone. Back then to us Pontiac people that was blasphemy. Think of it turning a Pontiac into a Mopar. About equal to a sex change!!!

A early shot when it was a REAL Pontiac;

this is my uncle after he bought my dad's '67 GTO 'vert, 4 speed in linden green/black/black. never had the chance to get it myself, unfortunately. i used to sit in it all the time when it sat in my grandparent's driveway. pic is likely '71-72 time frame. i still remember every little detail about that car.
