Almost out of Pontiacs...
After giving away my '03 SSEi and '98 GTP to family members in the last year, yesterday I sold my '79 TATA. That leaves me without a T/A for only the second time in 35 years.
 I'm left with the '67 GP convertible in my signature, and a couple of 455s with associated parts. I'm feeling adrift without a nice Poncho to drive!

Sometimes you reach a point in life where you have other, bigger priorities.
The only reason I’m keeping my Camaro and TA is sentimental.

Good point, Brad. The silver T/A just never did anything for me; my first several were all black and gold. I have more sentimental attachment to the '67 Cutlass convertible my dad and I built together, and I get a bigger grin from my daily driver CT6-V. I've always loved the Pontiacs, though - I don't know if I'm ready to let go completely (even though the '67 GP would be a massive project).

As someone who has cars stashed everywhere, I can certainly appreciate the freedom that comes with going down to one or two cars- even if they are projects

I agree with your sentiment, but the problem is trying to figure out which ones to get rid of.

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.
