One bucket list item checked off
I drove the Lemans from Port Charlotte Florida to Boone NC last week for the Boone Bike Rally.
No major issues there and back, I did have to stop once because of heat boiling off fuel. I just grabbed a meal, let the engine cool down then back on the road. Great group of people there to have some adult fun, no kids, no dogs, no colors, no trouble. I don't ride motorcycles anymore but everyone at the rally thought I was crazy but cool to drive the Lemans to the rally. Sitting in those vinyl seats for 12 hours each way was not the most comfortable so I will be driving local from now on.

That's what it's all about! Knocking down miles in a classic is something that cant be beat, and I wish more people did it. I'm always floored when someone has an awesome car and say they only drive it a few times a year.

Thanks, it was an awesome trip. I will post some more pics. Some I can't due to the adult themes and respect for the gals who decided to precipitate but probably don't want their wares all over the net.
I used to be the one who only drove the car every so often but since it's not a show queen or professionally restored, I decided that after all the time and money that was put into it, I will drive it as much as possible. It looks nice in the garage but better through the windshield.

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.
