  5. I've only owned one Pontiac, a 79 T/A S/E WS6. I bought it back a while ago, but haven't told the wife yet... I'm not even sure I'm gonna keep it.
    One things for sure, that thing flat MOVES! :)

    Not to be picky, but that's a 66, not a 67.

    Back in 1971 I have a 62 Pontiac Catalina and that was a damn good cruising car . Put a 389 in it and it ran great ! Nice and big with plenty of room to "Neck in & .....well you get the idea " ! :D
    Shame to see the great classics going by the way side ! :( DAMN SAD !

    Sorry I dont have a picture of it. But a guy I work with has the 66 GTO that he came home from the hospital in when he was born. Now I thnk that is really cool. Black on black 389 auto car.
     
  14. hey guys. Pontiac didn't die this week...or next year. Pontiac died in 1981. that was the last year of the Pontiac V-8. With the motor gone, so went its identity. After 1981, a Pontiac was a chebby with its chebby motor.
    Pontiac and GM deserves what it got. They built one ugly piece of crap after another. They could not get anything right. This is the last nail in the coffin and it should have happened over 20 years back.
    After building up a few generations of Pontiac loyalists, PMD and GM pissed on them. dropped our favorite motor. then even scrapped out the tooling for any future parts. I say piss on Pontiac and piss on GM.
    after 1981, it was all 'corporate nonsense'.
    in 1981 I promised myself to NEVER , Ever buy a new GM car because of this 'corporate nonsense'.
    Screw GM, screw todays Pontiac

    I am very glad it is finally over, it is well deserved. i am sorry for those who will loose their jobs though.

    I support and promote REAL Pontiacs only.

    What a damm shame those SOBs killing off my motor in '81. fortunately, the aftermarket has made the Pontiac V-8 better than Pontiac ever did.
    and more trick parts are on the way too! AMEN.
    No, the Pontiac V-8 motor is not dead, it is alive and well! the Pontiac 'badge' in dead on the assembly line. who gives a crap about the junk they built over the last few decades anyway? some do but, not the real Pontiac guys.

    As for me, I'll continue to drive and build and race nothing but REAL Pontiacs for as long as I live. I don't need no freakin' late model.

    This really sucks! I've had a bunch of 'em & grew up with Pontiacs. At least one has been in the garage since the day I was born.

    '63 GP
    '69 GP SJ
    '69 Judge
    '72 GP J
    '71 GP SJ
    '79 TA
    '67 400/4spd 'Bird
    '68 400/4spd 'Bird
    (2) '69 400/Auto 'Birds
    '69 400/4spd 'Bird
    & my current '64 GTO 455/tri-power/4spd

    They were THE performance division for GM! Why the hell would they keep two truck lines that are virtually identical (GMC/Chevy) & ditch Pontiac! Unreal!

    Whoa, word. one thing about sums that up - Aztec. But, enjoying this thread and all the good stuff they did make. My first car was a '74 T/A with a 455. Loved that car. You could seriously just about see the gas needle move going down the highway.

    This one isn't mine, but same color and everything (minus primer) and this video reminds me of the car almost exactly except mine did run a little better - at least in my memory anyway.

    We had lots of pontiacs in my family. My dad had a 64 Catalina (we came to CA in it 1964 via rte 66) a 68 Executive and a 71 Lemans. Sister had a 70 Firebird W/6cyl traded it in for a 71 Firebird Formula 400. I had a 50 Chieftan, a 50 Sedan Delivery and 56 Safari. All were great cars wish they were stiil around:mad:. Pics of a couple of mine.
