Pontiac is gone :cry:

Man I loved the Pontiac of the 60's and 70's. A true muscle car, GTO, Grand Prix , Some of my favorite cars I owned were Pontiac's. But then came front wheel drive down sizing they won't the same. I hated to see this line die.

I'm a fan of those old cars, though where I live in BC, new laws can make a big dent in the pocket book if caught speeding, they take away your car for a few weeks and a triple whammy fine, I can't blame the cops, though people who were reckless before are the same, just punishes the good drivers along with the drunks.

Every so often I see them at the car shows and wish I still had it. Had and expanding family and had 3 kids at the time so traded it for a nice Olds, Vista Cruiser with the glass roof....

I worked there. I helped assemble a lot of them.

My brother Gary had a 66 Goat with tri-power and four on the floor. It was a convertible. That was the fastest car I have ever driven and I owned a 58 Vette. That Goat would fly!!

I had a Lemans when in high school, 1966 closes I could get to Goat. Then bought a 1969 Vette when I got out of high school, it was one of those cars I dumped money into with someone always doing something to my dream car. I have never got a hot rod again after the money I spent on it. I sold it, then bought a Harley Low Rider my next dream machine, then a lady run a stop sign one day there went my bike. Seems every time I get a toy someone else will destroy it for me.
