Judi and I ran to the NHRA National Hot Rod Reunion this year with a couple of cool Pontiacs from our area. Bill Muck owns a rare '63 Tempest - 1 of 1 Black with factory tan interior. The original owner was an engineer who worked closely with GM. He took delivery of the car and also a "crate" 421 and did an immediate swap for the 326. The car has a factory 2 speed rear/transaxle, 3 deuces, stainless headers, and A/C. Old friend Bert Turley rode with Bill. Pete Hanway owns the '64 Grand Prix running a 2 four Pontiac 455 and was recently featured on the cover of Hi Performance Pontiac magazine. Pete did all the work on the car - it's one slick ride. Pete's friend Darryl, his son Mike, and grandson Ashton rode with him. The NHRR has got to be one of, if not the best, car event going. It has everything - nostalgia drags all weekend (with covered grandstands), rods, customs, muscle cars, a great location, and the NHRA does a great job making the participants feel very welcome. Enjoy
