You may want to re-think that idea since your car runs better at 115 than 70.

I spoke quickly late this afternoon with the President of our "Alberta Iron Indians Pontiac Club".  He said we had about 15 members present, and there were about 1300 cars.  It was a beautiful fall day here in Southern Alberta, 13C and clear skies.  Hopefully someone posts photos.

I have some pics I will try to get up later tonight. It was an Awesome show, and it turned into a Beautiful day, kinda chilly this mornin heading there though.
On the way I had to stop in Okotoks, I answered an ad looking to buy some hotrod mags...Turned out that an 11 year old,has just bought his first car, and wanted some mags to get some ideas. I dropped them off to him and his mom before the show, since it was on my way.
I gave him the website and hopefully he'll sign up(maybe be the youngest member) as the car he got is a 75 Firebird, Formula400 I believe it was.(didn't get a chance to see it though)
I didn't charge anything for the mags, I figure hes a future hot rodder, and remember trying to get enough cash to buy them mags when you were young....

Show was awesome, today!

Sixtywagon always has great pictures, so I won't steal his thunder.  However, here's a teaser (not CP's, but two of my favorites).

That's right....I have those high dollar Sport Deluxe emblems now instead of plastic Pontiac emblems on the fenders. She's a Poncho wannabe!

Thx for sharing. Love the old Pontiac "Nomad".
Any idea what the 66 Beau SD rag had in it for an engine?

No idea. It is the first time I have seen that car and I was rushing to see all the cars in 3hrs.
