Vintage Pontiac photos

[69L78Post]

A nice 69 Judge, picture taken in Moncton NB 1970. The car doesn't look like it's been beat on too much yet!

Someone put trim rings on it back then. Didnt like the trimless wheels I guess.

No headrests either.

[68 Vert]

No Ram Air decals on the hood.

Man, even the factory couldn't get things right back then...I bet there's even a Ford &quot;CAUTION FAN&quot; sticker on the radiator shroud, too. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Is that the plant in Belgium, that assembled cars for Europe?

My understanding is that in Canada, headrests didn't become mandatory until January 1, 1969.

No - that's Lordstown.

Most &quot;Pontiac&quot; plants assembled multiple GM Brands (the exception being the &quot;home&quot; plant in Pontiac Michigan).

It is still done that way today (that is, multiple GM brands and models going down the same line).

Correction: that's the Van Nuys plant, according to Jim Mattison.

My apologies (I was going from memory, which is a dangerous thing to do).
