WOW! It's about time that we Pontiac enthusiast had a good forum!
I look forward to exchanging ideas, and stories with all of you.

My name is Dwayne. I am a PC tech for the US DoD (civilian), and live in Oklahoma. I own 2 vehicles: a 2005 Dodge Ram Daytona (my daily driver) and a 1977 Trans Am that is about 75% restored (modified).
I just had the entire drive train rebuilt and beefed up a little. It has a 1975 455, bored .060 over (469 CID) that produces about 600HP (not dyno'd yet).
The TH400 tranny was rebuilt by Bennie Gadsten, and beefed up to handle 800+HP with no problem. That guy does some incredible work.

I am modifying the interior to modernize it a little - adding 2002 T/A seats, or aftermarket seats, covering the ABS plastic interior trim pieces with vinyl, and removing the rear seat to install four 15" subs.

Anyway, good to see a nice forum for Pontiacs!

Take care, and see you around.
 
Hi Dwayne! Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up! I'm glad you feel the same way I do about Pontiac enthusiast sites!! Where the HECK are they?! Well, that's why I started this one.. I've been drooling over the GTO and as I get more and more involved with looking at Pontiacs, I just can't figure out why there's not more of a following online. Let's show the world that we feel the same way about Pontiac as everyone else feels about Lexus, Volkswagen, Honda - and all the rest of those companies with huge online communities...
 
Thanks Sal!

Here's a picture of my baby... :D
The side pipes have been Photoshop'd in, but they will be added next month.

Nice job with the Photoshop! And I must say - if I owned that car, I'd be afraid to drive it. I mean - you must be a little paranoid. Right? That thing looks precious!
