Hope, how do you like the torque from that 400? one of my favorite ford motors.

i had a 70' with a 400.



I had 2 '72 j's and a '71 j. Cool cars, and one of Pontiac's most underrated coupes, overshadowed by the firebird and of course, the GTO.

Ok...i gotta bite on this.....

First up is my project truck which is a 1985 Chevy S10 Blazer 4x4 that i just recently got ahold of a donor truck to rebuild it from.
This is what it looked like when i made the mistake of selling it...got it back though fortunately...



How it started when i first got it...ok...yea i went and did a bit of muddin with it the second day i owned it lol...come on..its a 4X4! Of course im gonna go find mud!



The Street ride is my 94 Acura Integra RS. Picked up in may...




        Good to see you HERE to "Take a bite" on this Chris! Looking forward to see what all you do with the Lil' Blazer. ;)

All my 40 chevy and firebird pics are on paper, I'll have to get the kids to scan them for me. The cars are in storage, the bird is waiting it's turn for a restoration in my car trailer, the coupe is in the garage of the owner of the 68 chevelle I'm working on.

        looking forward to seeing them too, Don! ;)

  I don't know that much about the newer ones, but I DO know that the older Pontiacs were to be respected. :)

    I kinda go along with bucky, exceptI'd be wanting a 62 Gran Prix, a 71 Trans Am w/SD455 OR (how many have heard of the) Cam AM Pontiac? I believe it was built only in 1977. I'll have to double check that.

I think that Can Am was the car a group of pontiac engineers went nascar racing with. they had enough money for one shot, built it, went with a hired driver and ran really well but they used aluminum wheels and they flexed so much it rubbed off the brake bleeders. I think nascar outlawed aluminum wheels after that.
