Firebird/Trans Am show in Pontiac, IL

The weather was threatening all day but that didn't stop some hardy 'bird owners from trekking out...

Re: Firebird/Trans Am show in Pontiac, IL















Coming into Pontiac, IL, I found several Formulas that looked to be for sale. Also, because Pontiac is part of the Route 66 tourism road, there is a giant Route 66 sign that you can pull your car in front of for pics...
The Pontiac Oakland museum has may be more than a hundred cars in its collection and if you arrange a group tour in advance, they will bus you around to the various warehouses to see the cars that aren't being displayed at the museum(they rotate the cars on a regular basis). The museum has a nice bunch of literature and stuff for the Pontiac enthusiast but is shy of 3rd Gen memorabilia...
