A Horse With No Name

The sad thing is that in the midwest you seemingly never see either variant of GP (69-72 or 62-68). The 69-72 cars were awesome. Make mine an SSJ. Chris

Sorry to hear about the Bonnie being injured. Someone ran into the wife's car at Columbus State the other week and drove off without leaving a note. People are idiots. Chris

Agreed. Chris

One can only hope. Chris

I've actually heard that German girls give it up quite easily. The Routan is my least fav. VW product by far...it's a running joke amoung the VW faithful as well, from the old air cooled guys to the young ricers to the TDI crowd. Chris

...or that those of us who are liberal granola asswipes might prefer a small car like a Solstice, MINI, Cobalt SS, Volvo C30, Honda Fit, Miata, etc. Or even a Kia Soul or a Hyundai Accent for that matter. I wish that Ford would indeed have a Euro Focus on the showroom floor. An SVT version of that would be HOT! A G3 would be a great donor vehicle...for a beer can. Chris

God I'd love to own a Firehawk. Chris

Just tell her its better than a seemingly endless turnover of mistresses. Chris

Believe it or not, when I was 17, back in 1993, I was working at a summer camp in Indianapolis. There was a bright red 74 SD T/A, one owner, sitting for cheap on a downtown used car lot. I almost bought it, but didn't feel like giving up my 70 Chevelle that I was then driving. Voting for Reagan in '84 and not buying that car that July afternoon are the two things I regret most from my teenage years. I can still remember that car 26 years later...it had a Tan interior. How many 74 SD TA's came red with a tan interior? It may have been the only one. God what a car...I can remember the rumble of the V8 through the seat of my pants even today. Chris

The really seductive GP's were those of the sixites. 67 GP Ragtop anyone? ...and I'm still a holdout for the 70's RWD cars, and the 80's Aerocoupes. Chris

It was a very touching, emotional post for those of us who love(D) Pontiac and what it stood for. This is one of the best things I've read all week, and I agree 100 percent. Chris

Nice work, Camino! Chris

The Intrepid is about eleventy billion times better looking than the TL and the TSX also.... Keep US POSTED! Chris

Take that 06 GTO to a dragstrip or an autocross and you'll love it even more. Great car! Chris

...and BTW I had a friend in College that had a two door version of that car in maroon. That was a NICE car. Chris

Maybe that one owner is Marty McFly, and he has been hauling Doc Brown around in it. Perhaps it is the only one of its kind with gullwing doors? Chris

Ohh....my....god..... I LOVE the 3.5, wonderful motor. Methinks I'll be jealous of the finished project, DF. And the pics in your sig look good! Chris

I think they destroyed more F-body cars with Rockford than they did with Smokey and the Bandit. Seems to me like I remember one going off of a cliff IIRC. Also remember Eric Estrada had an early 70's Firebird in a similar color destroyed in an episode of "CHIPS" IIRC they put the Forks of all all-terrain forklift through it, amoung other things. Chris

There was NO better looking car in the 1960's, IMHO. It's been 45 years since some of these cars were produced and I still have the hair stand up on my arms when I see one. Which is why I get depressed...even with the G8, the good days of Pontiac are gone forever. I really wish I could have had a 69-77 Grand Prix new off of the showroom floor. That would be wunderful! Chris

+1 The rumors of VW as the worlds number one automaker may alas not be a cool-aide dream after all. The Camaro will probably be dead before I can get one...a sad day in mudville indeed. Chris

Actually I'm paying off one car and trying to pay off the other. But hopefully if things get better I'll go 20K in debt and buy a nice Solstice GXP. Chris
