It’s amazing how small our Pontiacs(especially birds) look today isn’t it. I was w my buddy in his 70 bird one day and we parked in a filled parking lot and it looked like a compact car . I guess I never park my 69 like that so I don’t notice normally .

On one hand I hear what you’re saying with respect to FBs, especially surrounded in a sea of pick up trucks and large SUVs, but on the other hand I was standing by my friends 66 GTO ‘vert and couldn’t get over how long and wide it appeared. These cars capture the imagination!

It's nuts. Even compact modern cars are big. The ones I was parked next to were just regular everyday vehicles, and the TA looked like a clown car lol

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.
