Mike I remember that pic of the 71 from years ago but its really a 70 T/A. I think pontiac doctored the photo for the press. Note the Lowback bucket seats in it. I never heard of a 71 with red interior.Your right there are a few 69's and 70's running around that have been sold. The 72 Black car is awesome.

Don, yes, that actually IS a 70! Typical of a manufacturer to add plates, or change a few items, for publicity photos. There's a lot of them! I should have tagged that as a 70 used for 71 publicity photos.

I'm actually in the process of putting together a webpage about factory promo photo errors. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Keith, thanks for the heads up. BTW, did you get my message about your 1963 Drag Racing video is back on YouTube?

Yes - thank you; although I forgot to follow up. I'll do that shortly.

Wanted to keep this thread rolling...

1) Anyone remember &quot;Tons A Fun&quot;? This wagon with the T41 Endura schnoz was a fan favorite for many many years, and always lifted that left front on launch...

2) Very rare 72 GTO post coupe.

3) Fantastic photo of the men behind the 1970 GTO (courtesy HPP). On the right is William Mitchell, Vice President in charge of styling, and next to him is James McDonald, the General Manager of Pontiac Motor Division. The man standing just over the roof line (in the gray suit) is Bill Porter, Chief Designer.
