I think i am in love with that beauty of yours. The 66 Pontiac full size has always been up there with some of the most beautiful cars ever but that Grande of yours has it all happening. The only thing missing is that big block and red line tires. Like Carl, i am accessory crazy and always prefer a loaded car. Your 66 has all the good stuff and to have black and red going on just keeps me mesmerized. Tom, continued good luck with your sweet 66 time machine. Cheers. George

I hope Tom is ok with me posting the link to the thread where I show pictures of the car when I bought it. Tom, if you don't like this link here to remind people how it looked, just say so and I will remove it.

No problem at all Carl, it's a great post, I enjoy the story behind the car, and seeing how the car evolved, and I'm sure others will too.

That car has come a long way in your hands. It may not be a major facelift like some, but it sure has changed.

Thanks to all the ground work you completed, and help from members of this site, the car is where it is today. I'm just carrying on with the torch you handed me.

Its been a blast getting this car on the road, and I still have a lot of plans for the car, all of which you will love!

Cheers,

The best plan of all is the big block plan! It will suit the car perfectly.

Congratulations,Tom! Couldn't have had a better pick for Car of the Month. Beautiful car! I love too ,the fact you are driving her as long as you can and not stuffing her away in a garage somewhere. Kind of like getting your picture on the Cover of the Rolling Stone, eh?

Thanks Fred, yep its very cool seeing it up there.

And if I make it into the Poncho calender, I'll buy 10 copies for my mother .

I got the car out this morning too while it was nice, the weather is miserable now though, probably the last time for the season (I keep saying that).

4SPEED427 · A Poncho Legend!

Enjoy it while you can, they salted here today so I'm done.

Oh well, I'm happy you're going to have a short storage season.

It's in the calendar (it's the December 2017 car). They should be arriving next week.
