[Spridgets] Not LBC......Both the Pontiac & Saturn end December 2009 .....I'm in mourning

[Mark]

In the late fall of 59 I went to the Indianapolis car show with my Dad to 
see what was new.  There on the floor was a beautiful 1960 white Pontiac 
Bonneville Convertible, 389 Tri-Power, and blue striped leather interior.  I 
was only a month or two away from getting my license and thought this would 
be a really nice car for "me".  At the time my Mother had a baby blue County 
Squire wagon which she hated.  Dad bought it on the spot and had it 
delivered to Mother right after the car show.  I did get to drive it some 
and really liked that car but my main transportation was a $300 52 Ford 
convertible that I bought with my paper route money.  I too hate to see 
Pontiac go but in the last 25 years it has just not had the good stuff that 
made them special.

RD, if I'm not mistaken, Pontiac had a 326 until 1967 and that was opened up
to a 350 in 68 -- unless the 327 was a transplant.
