Pontiac Day in Sweden

[jannes_z-28]

Yesterday there was "All Pontiac Day" at a castle outside of Stockholm. Weather was perfect and some 125 Pontiacs showed up and a 100 "other cars" that had to park in a special area.

We have a lot of nicelly restored cars, mostly GTO's and Firebirds from the Musclecar years but also some really nice ones from pre '65 years.

One of many 2gen Trans Am's, they were really popular back in the late seventies and got called "Pizza Racers". That was because every owner of a pizzastore in Stockholm got one. Sadly nobody else wanted them because of that at that time.

A 1965 GTO sold new in Sweden with TriPower setup. Lots of options on this one.

Back then the GTO's and many other US-cars was considered luxury and they consequently was heavy optioned.
