Well, let me jump in on this Pontiac forum. My first two cars were both Pontiacs - 60 Parisienne four door hardtop and then a 63 Parisienne convertible. When I got back in the hobby in the 1990's I again went the Pontiac route. Here's some pics of the ones I had during those years.

One of my favourite cars of all time is a 61 Ventura bubbletop.

Our 1975 Firebird Espirt that my Gramma Rose bought new at Ruckle Pontiac in Yonkers, NY in Sept 1975. It has 79,000 miles on it now. Unrestored other than the paint job I had done back in 1990. My 10-year old son just rebuilt the original 350 engine last month:

There's a twin to the 67 2+2 428 4 speed blue car in CT.
Always thought that was a nice combo.

The 70-73 Birds just look so cool from every angle. It's incredible they built a car like that in 1970. When you see one coming down the road, they seem to fill up the entire lane. Coolest spoilers in the industry. A bonafide road racer and stoplight drag racer all in one. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
