Took my 74 Bonne, 72 GT & 67 Wagon out for a nice ride today each. I dunno, maybe 100 miles total?
The Wagon needed the ignition switch replaced (kept having to jumper across to start), so that was swapped followed by the obligatory test drive. Fixed! ![]() The GT needed the rear brakes checked (maybe later this weekend), but ya' gotta drive it to listen, "are they really squeaking, or can I just stand on the throttle a little more to drown out that sound?" ![]() Meanwhile, Bonne went to my shop and up on stands so I can work on the Speedo drive gear in the tail housing which has popped loose. I'll have her back on the road again next week. ![]() Of course I forgot the action shots, but ya' know, just another day in Pontiac paradise!

Spray-bombed my hood - was a Marimba Red one but my car is Starlight Black. I shoulda kept the original, but swapped it many years ago for this perfect-condition one.

A buddy bought his smoke machine over tonight. My ‘63 LeMans started dying at idle, seems like a vacuum leak. No leaks found. On to plan B. What plan B is, I don’t know yet.
