I'm gonna guess '71.

I believe 70's (for the most part, as well as 68/69) had round parking lights; '71 is clear lens amber bulb, '72 is amber lens clear bulb, '73 had the rubber front bumper.

Close it is a 70 350/350 car. All origanal. You are right with the round head lights on the 68/69 but changed in 70 with the clear lense and egg crate grill and sides and stayed the same with 71 and changed again with 72 to the amber. Thanks for the comments..

Default Over the top Poncho garage/warehouse

OK Guys this is a big place with alot of cars & lifts almost everything in the pics are owned by username pontiaccollector. There are many Ram Air cars 67-70 I, II, III & IV. This is a collection that started very small & evolved into this great collection stored & maintained in this Garage/Warehouse. There Are 8 drive on portable lifts & 2 Twin post service lifts. Most of the cars are nice & there are a few project cars.

Did I mention that I maintain all of these vehicles, it is a full time job repairing & maintaning these vehicles. Before anyone gets jealous or envious think about it its monday you start working on a car & then another & another & another & another down the line then something happens to disrupt your MOJO & it all starts over again. Hey that one over there is leaking tranny fliud, uh oh this one over here has bad seals on the caliper & has destroyed the original paint on the wheel. Oh NO there is gasoline dripping out of the air cleaner. On & On & On I am not complaining it is just the nature of the beast's, especially with this many.

Thanks for sharing Moegoat. I - and many others here I'm sure - would be happy to assist you in removing those unsightly Pontiacs from that pristine warehouse.

It's a real beauch that you have to put up with all of that Pontiac trash laying around that otherwise spotless real estate!

Could you please post more detailed photos of that 60's Funny car so we can be accurate and sure to mark it for removal as a nuisance!?

In all seriousness; thanks for sharing the pics and the realities of the upkeep and maintenance of ALL car collections.

Here's our "warehouse".

Well...all I can say is that think I would have died and gone to Pontiac heaven if I was able to have a fleet of Pontiacs like that!!! Tell us more about the lifts. I see that the twin post lifts are "Rotary Lifts" ...what make are the 4 post lifts...are they "Backyard Buddy"? Seeing that you are keeping up the cars for the owner, tell us the plus and minus of using the 2 post versus 4 post lift. Also how well do you like the Rotary Lifts and the 4 post lifts in terms of quality and features that they have? Thanks!

The 4 post lifts are from Superlifts (so so cust service). They are generic Chinese manufactured lifts that alot of companies are selling & putting their name on (you get what you pay for). If Rob & I did it all over again he would have spent the extra money on the Backyard buddy lift which is much safer & more stable, super high quality. FYI the 4 post lifts were primarily bought for storage only. The 4 post being a drive on has its pro's & cons. If you are over 5 1/2 feet tall you should work with a hard hat. The jack trays are bulky & heavy & hard to use at the front of the car, the rear is fine. There are solid deck available but not good if you work on your car. There are aluminum panels that are not weight bearing & also just plastic drip trays that fit between the platforms.

The Rotary twin post lift's are the standard of the industry. Go into a dealer or independent shop & ask anyone most people will tell you they are the best. The advantage is it is totally clear under the car, tires & suspension hanging for ease of service. Not good for storage, you should allways have the suspension sitting at ride height when stored for long periods. If not you can damage bushings & shock seals among other things when the suspension is at full extended travel. You can still park a car under it but no provisions for a drip pan, you would have to put somthing on the car underneath.

I personally have 3 twin post lifts (not rotary, purchased with my business) & 1 in ground X lift at my shop, no drive on at all, remember these are in a auto repair shop & used on a daily basis for general service & repairs.

I hope this helps everybody

Glad you posted. It is a good reminder that I need to get out and see Rob's building. Norm (westech) did the same thing to me when he showed me some pics this summer. I have to get on the horn this winter and come see you guys, I know I missed some post Mecum gatherings but I will settle for my own afternoon of Pontiac pleasure. I keep telling Rob I am gonna get there; now I am on a mission.

Regards,

JOHN
