Nunzi Romano Not Gone
Edit: Happy to report that this is a false alarm. It did seem a little off to me that it was reported on the HAMB but no mention here...
Sorry Folks! I have not seen anything here but saw it on the HAMB. https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...ssing.1227764/

Maybe someone has the time to put together a little Bio? I certainly know of his rep but am a little fuzzy on the details...

Good to hear he is still around, nice guy. I met him once when I brought my 70 Judge there to get the rear main seal fixed. When I still lived in Brooklyn. He told me he did not want to do it because it was like a $5 dollar part and it would be all labor. I think I was about 21 at the time. He said it might start leaking after he changed it. He was very up front and honest. Then he gave me one of his catalogs. Which I probably still have around somewhere. Like I said nice guy. Marc

I used to have dinner with Nunzi, Tommy, and Michael at Norwalk at least one night, each year, when they were racing at the track. We all stayed at the track and cooked on the grounds. Really enjoyed that courtesy by the Romano family.
One year, at Christmas, Nunzi sent me some of his home made wine. Really good people. Tom V.

Crazy. This is exactly why I never look at the rip posts that people can’t wait to post when someone dies.

In the days of Walter Cronkite and Huntley and Brinkley, the news you heard or read about was something you could take to the bank as Gospel.
Today 90 % of what you read in the news is fake news spread by websites like Facebook. And yet people are so naive that they actually believe this crap posted on the web. Tom Vaught

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.
