Chat with Art Fitzpatrick!
I am very excited to announce that the great Art "Fitz" Fitzpatrick has agreed to let me interview him for my GTO blog! For those few not familiar with his name, he and the late Van Kaufman did those fantastic Pontiac illustrations from 1959-1971. It was those ads that turned me into a Pontiac fan as a kid. Well, I had an idea. Why not open this up to you guys, and let you ask Fitz questions about his work. So have at it! I can't promise to include them all in the interview (the man is busy as a bee and I don't want to take too much of his time).
I will let you all know when the post is on my site, probably in a few weeks. In the meantime, here is his website, if you want to check out that cool artwork: http://www.fitz-art.com

Fitz is an amazing artist and a very interesting person. We are fortunate to have him in the SoCal area. He and Jim Wangers have come to several of our SDPOCI Christmas parties. Attached is a picture of him yesterday at Jim Wangers' birthday party. Fitz will be 94 in November.

Great pic OMT. Nice to see you around (I remember you from that other Pontiac site years ago when I was more of a regular) Who is the third guy at the table?

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.
