But the little bronze plaque is still pasted to the dash in the mild-custom '64 Ranchero my wife and I drove there (oh- and my first-born son, although he wasn't born until Jan '73). My son still has the car, which I gave to him as a high school graduation present. It's still very driveable, although it needs a repaint (the eight coats of rainbow-flake epoxy enamel is very cracked). Next time it's out of storage, I need to take a photo of the plaque.

These photos are from '72- before leaving, and halfway to Memphis.
[Its only "Pontiac connection" is the '62 Tempest front bumper]

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world.

Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
