I was 15 years old. I would turn 16 in the fall of '74, and was looking for a car to buy with the paper route money I had saved. A GTO, 2+2 or Grand Prix would have been my top picks, but I ended up with a '61 Ford Sunliner convertible that was offered to me at a great price by a friend of the family. Once I had the Ford, I actually liked it a lot.

February 1976
Wow, 50 years ago. I was in college , wrestling in Delhi New York at our regional tournament. There I lost to the national champ by a couple points and that ended my tournament.
I got into Cars (Trans Ams) soon after that. It’s always been high school , college and international-wrestling first and then Cars. |

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.
