Neat car. I too like the color. Nice job saving it. Looks like it runs as good as it looks.

Awesome car bruno. St James is an area in Winnipeg, always has been. Don't know why they say they say St James in the the docs instead of Winnipeg?? Where was the junk yard that it was almost crushed at??? Gimli raceway opened up years after the Bison/Keystone dragway closed in 77. Don't have any pics from Gimli just bison/keystone. Andrew.

Thanks for the compliments,Andrew.I was able to contact Dave Berrier(salesman at Birchwood Motors since '64)at the dealership and he confirmed Milt Schornacks story about the connectiom with Royal Pontiac.My car was the car Dave raced at Keystone. Trophies,awards and some pics were stolen from the showroom years ago but he was going to check at home to see if he had any pics from back in the day.He told me that the car ran in the mid 12's when it was new.I'll dig up some paperwork at the office tomorrow and see if I can tell you which wrecker had it.The guy who sold it to me worked for a truck dealership.Do you have any pics of my car from keystone?

Re: Bruno17's Cool 1969 GTO
 

I had the pleasure of meeting Denis Verrier(sorry about the spelling on my last post!)from Birchwood motors this past weekend at Performance World in Toronto.He raced my car when it was new in '69.What a gentleman he is!! Shared lots of stories with us about the car back in the day.He recalled the graphics on the trunk of the car......cartoon of german soldier holding a gun to his head with the caption "aim and fire". Guess it could have been an Arte johnson caricature of the "laugh in" character.
Guess no one has pics huh?
