Absolutely. There were entire staffs of engineers and technicians dedicated to keeping it all going.

You have to meet FMVSS standards at both curb and GVW, in addition to any customer "pleasability" requirements, so the development and validation testing is nearly insurmountable.

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.
