Our Cars Birthday- Born Date

[Keith Seymore]

Finally! September! I've been waiting for this!

We'll start here -

This one was ordered through Dick Jesse at Royal Pontiac specifically for my dad to race. 389 tripower, 4 speed, 3.90 gear, metallic brakes.

Built September 18th in Pontiac Michigan; instead of going to the hospital to see my new baby sister Dad and I went down to Royal to pick the car up.

I had it out over the weekend and I think it now has around 5170 miles on it. Original unrestored condition (born with powertrain, paint and interior); Never been in the snow, never sat outside over night, only been in the rain a couple times and, other than the stint at the Gilmore Museum, never been out of our direct control.

This car was the NHRA B/Stock national record holder in 1965 and best ET is 12.23 @118mph in B/MP trim (headers, '67 heads and '66 tripower, 9" slick).
