OMT,
I was thrilled to see the 109.75 mph. I usually ran 105-106, but on this run, there was a tailwind and everything else was "just right." With 7" M&H slicks and the 3.90 gears & wide ratio, it got off the line really good and ran 5500 rpm through the traps. In 1965, my '64 had three-tube Doug's headers and a '61 big Pontiac Tripower (flat manifold). As part of the sponsorship, the dealer put the headers on and installed the 068 cam. I pulled the heads and milled them .035" and installed Isky Polylocks. Since this was my only car, I usually washed off the Phil Tolkan lettering on Sunday nights so I could drive the car to work Monday morning without too much police attention. I re-applied poster paint Saturday.

Could very possibly be in storage at Wright Patterson AFB for the Air Force Museum and waiting to be restored or prepared for an exhibit - or at the Smithsonian in DC, waiting for the same thing.

So many GREAT pics on this thread!
A few that bring back fond memories for me as a kid in the late 50's / early 60's. Wanted Dead or Alive with one of Hollywoods best ever - Steve McQueen. Last two pics are my cap guns still in the original box.

Here are a few more. Steve - note the hitch on the '66! The apparition in the 2nd one proves that in fact the location is the Pearly Gates.

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.
