I was so busy laughing at the car, I didn't notice that huge and very hazardous service pit in his garage. "Safety? Just lay a door across it."

The shop door appears to be from a submarine. So he found a submarine, cut off the door, and installed it on his shop. Now, what to do with the old wooden door?

About Us

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.
