Smile Introduction

Been lurking here for several years and the time finally came to jump in the tank! I have recently become a Pontiac owner via a pretty cool dude by the name of Dad or I think you guys call him "Wheelspin". I plan on beating on this ole girl at our local & regional tracks soon. Also will be seeing everyone next July in Ft Worth at the national!

Wow nice ride!! You're a lucky man to have a cool Dad with a car like that. He is also lucky to have a kid that wants to enjoy a car like that! Pretty sure my son would sell mine if I gave it to him.

No worries about these two guys cashing in on their new classic Pontiacs. Both of them have listened to my and my victories while building these cars over the past 15 years . Even if they determine that it's necessary to sell them due to future need-they are their cars and that would be their decision .

Mike (GTO TEX) to the finest Pontiac Forum on the internet. Fasten your seat belt, sit back, and immerse yourself in all things Pontiac.

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.
