I got a little crazy with the pumpkin carving this year.
It's not a Pontiac, but I figure you guys wouldn't mind a little nostalgia (or a laugh). That, and who can resist the evil glow coming from behind a '58 Fury ?...
great pumpkin! Any tips would be appreciated! I do that type of carving for mine as well. The neihbours get upset if i dont do one every year!! I dident have time this year so i did a quick one and forgot to put the lightbulb in it
Thats just way too cool zig'! Pity you can't preserve it somehow...but I guess thats the fleeting beauty of it. Could you whip 10 or so off next year, 60-70 big Canadian Pontiacs, take some shots?

Pete, I was considering buying that pink/white one for parts. It's a rust free Texas car. I could use the floors! If you ever see it for sale, let me know.

Is this it?
I don't think so, the one I saw didn't have the hood or trunk lid open, I'll check it out this week & see if it's the same car Pete

@ dualquadpete: Now THATs an car that would look sinister on a pumpkin. I love how it has the look that look that makes you wanna get out of the way if it ever raced up behind you.
@ cdnpont: I don't know about whipping out 10 of them, but if you have a nice clean dead-on shot of the front of a few favorites, I'll consider it!
@ 59poncho: Sorry, don't really have any tips. I sorta take on pumpkin carving like I take on repairs: I grab some tools that I think might do the job and whack at it until it works.
As for preserving it, nothing really works that well (not even clear coat). Hence the web page - preserved forever! A few days after the carving, it kinda looked like Christine at the end of the movie before it hit the crusher.
