Best would be :

1997 Mustang 6 cylinder my wife had when we got married. I put Cobra wheels on it, kept it waxed and until 2005 the only thing it ever needed was a brake caliper.

1970 LeMans 350 2bbl. My dad bought this in ‘75 before I was born. It was their daily growing up, then my high school car. I couldn’t tell you how many times that car was hit. It was run over by a U Haul, crushed by a tree, jumped over rail road tracks and still started all the time. As it sits that car has 208,000 miles on it and the motor, Trans and rear have never been overhauled.


Worst:

Without a doubt our 1957 Pontiac Chieftain. We bought it with a Tri Power on it when I was 15. I can count on one hand how many times I’ve driven that car without an issue in the past 30 years. It was always the Tri Power, then I converted to a 4 bbl and it ran hot. After I got it to run cool the brakes went to crap. Sat for several years and the fuel turned to varnish. Got the tank cleaned out, flushed lines and finally got it to run right.... wheel cylinders go out. It’s currently sitting in my dads shop and gets cussed out every time I see it.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world.
