Whatever happened to that car ?

Charley

In my opinion it went on to become the most recognizable 69 GTO in the history of Pontiac.

I was asking about the Firebird.. I know where Ritas car is... I hid something in it at SCR7

Well I was wondering why you asked that question, it didn't make much sense to the Blue car. I figured you were leading me into something. Just what did you hide in it?

The Firebird is painted black with a IV hidden in a garage some where, so I was told. Several people have contacted me in private in effort to acquire it, which was interesting to me because I don't know where it is.

But yeah I would think that would be one sweet car to own.

Schornack might know where that car is.

I think Milt still owns the '71 'Bird that he raced for Pontiac in 1971.
Now THAT car has a history that will NOT be revealed until my Schornack book comes out!

(It will drive Steved beyond the point of insanity when he reads it!)

Watch for the Schornack biography to be released around Thanksgiving.

In the meantime, you can read the FIRST EVER fiction about Woodward Avenue. This novel is a throwback to 1970 Detroit.
It was read by Jim Wangers and Milt Schornack before it went to the printer.
I co-wrote it and it is a really fun trip back in time!
Woodward Avenue: The Novel
Enjoy!

I've heard a little bit about Milt's post Royal days, the Pontiac Engineers continued to shuffle performance parts for him to test and what not. Heard a teaser on the Firebird, it all sounds cool to me.

You should have never hinted Milt knows where the Bird is, you will now have all the people that contacted me after you.

I love 350 HO Firebirds, and that alone makes it a great car in my book. I love the paint scheme and the daul hood tach air feeds. I just wish there were more color pics of all these cars, and some video would be nice. I can't believe no one shot some film of all this stuff back in the 60's

Bill just got back from tearing the interior out of his Bobcat to see what you hid in it

WOW!

THANKS CHARLEY!

That is COOL!

Rita

Have you and or Bill ever noticed the WY sticker photo, if you have what is your take on it?

Steve_Hoog · #**119** 10-13-2005, 04:42 AM

Let me re phrase that, obviously you have at least seen it now since I posted it.

Had you taken notice of it before this thread?

And what is your take on it, regardless of when you first saw it?

Bill currently owns the 70 1/2 ROYAL Formula. He purchased it from Milt almost 15 years ago.

Here's the model that MPC did of this NHRA record setting Firebird:

BTW...I also know where the '69 ROYAL Firebird is, but out of respect for the owner, I will not disclose it on here. (sorry
