Re: Vintage Pontiac Pics
Awesome pictures Grant, they really are. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
I have tons of vintage Oldsmobile and Buick photos too. We may have to start a thread in the other section(s).
Some more from 1969:
1) Another shot of the yellow 1969 Firebird from the same Detroit Auto Show.
2 & 3) Two photos of the Royal Racing Team's 1969 Firebird. Note that this was not Royal Pontiac anymore, it was "Leader Engineering". Leader Automotive was owned by George DeLorean (John Z's brother). After Royal Pontiac decided to get away from the high perf conversions business and focus on regular Pontiac sales, chief mechanic Milt Schornack left Royal Pontiac, and hooked up with Leader Automotive. Milt was allowed to keep the Royal trademark though, as he was responsible for the Royal Pontiac Racing Club. Ace Wilson Jr. of Royal Pontiac had no interest in the Bobcat conversions after Jim Wangers left to work for George Hurst.
3) An original Judge jacket, still in the package.
