Cool! I saw this car on eBay. Yeah, the "hobby" can get you down at times so something off the wall like this can bring back the fun!

Yep, sometimes I am so close to getting a car done, but can't make it happen. Then, I start thinking about getting rid of everything. But I hang in there. This car had a lot going for it, I felt. It was a good bodystyle, a plus. A convertible, plus. Ex drag, plus, at least to guys like us. Untouched time capsule, plus and did not take much to get it going (lucky?). Pontiacs had a killer reputation during this timeframe, especially in North East Ohio. I hope to make it to its 1st show October 1st.

I love it Bentley! I bet it was a blast to discuss the car with folks at the show. Glad that it put the fun back in the hobby for you.

Uh no, I wasn't inferring a possible award, unless an award for the car with the best vIbE!!!!!!! Glad you had a good time. What sort of reactions to your car did you get?

Yeah, I never had so many, show so much interest. I arrived Friday morn. Parked with some long time Camaro buddies out in the backlot. The next morning, I am greeted at my car by some guys who insisted the car got moved to a better site were it could be showcased with other vintage race tin. They saw the car enter the show on Friday and hunted it down (approx, 3000 cars). They found it after I had left for the day. These 2 guys told me they crawled under the car and all around it and determined it was gold. I was immediately moved to prime real estate, amongst the upper crusts of the show. I was put on the corner, on pavement, as seen, across from the gas pump island display (Most of the grounds are gravel or grass and it was very dusty). Yep, I moved from Baltic Place to Park Place in an instant. I had to bring down the SUV to haul my ego home! I was stoked! ![]()

Got Dang wild as hell Love It Probably wind up in Hollywood making a movie with this beast in it. Thanks for letting me know you had a thread for it on here Bentley. Would put out an All Points Bulletin for an old Knafel Pontiac-Akron Ohio die cast dealer emblem to put on it. Pontiac Folks in your neck of the woods would all be doing back-flips and cart-wheels around the car. Even the old old old guys. I had a picture of one from eBay years ago. Cant find the pic now. The "K" 's are usually backwards - on purpose. I think they still reproduce these decals. Could "age-enhance" some patina on them if you can find them - probably on eBay. A lot of us are big big fans of Knafel and the Tin Indians . |
