  3. Lol here ya go Fitzy my old man and me at the POCI Of long island car show.
  4. She already had the paint job done when i bought her. That’s actually another cool story.. this car blows my mind in many ways. If you don’t believe in fate, sit back and let me show you how it works.. Timeline- April 16, 2019 i bought my car And started posting my story on all the pontiac pages on facebook and it started to draw attention. At the time I was still an addict and struggling in an abusive relationship and suicidal. One guy seen my story and messaged me offering me support and advice. At the time i had lost all trust for men and didn’t really pey attention to what he was telling me. Over time he won my trust and became my friend and go-to for odd questions about my car and life/relationship advice. By February 28, 2020 came he and I had become close. He’s an older gentleman i now call my adopted Dad. The day my world came to a spiraling halt. My now ex had busted my face open. That’s also the last time I used drugs. The older gentleman and I were now talking daily on the phone he helped me keep a level head. Skip ahead to 2021, that older gentleman i now call my adopted dad and I trailered my car to his house in long island. Strangely enough is where the listing that i found my car through when i bought her said she was from. Father’s day weekend we took our cars( he has a 65’ grand prix) to a fathers day car show on long island where we ended up meeting one of his friends. His friend and i started talking and i told him my story of how i found my car and such and he proceeded to tell me he knows my car. Shocked isn’t even the word. He explained to me that his son was the one who painted my car in 2001 for his friend who owned her at the time. My car was the first car he had ever done flames on. He also said he called his son and told him my car was there and that his son was on his way to meet me and see the car again. He hadn’t seen her in 20 years. I got to meet the son, later he sent me all the pictures of the process of painting her. I then got invited to a party he was having at his house for all his car friends where in turn i got to meet the guy who owned my car when it was painted. Another strange coincidence- i still live in Pennsylvania.. before my car i had never been to long island or knew anyone from there. Come to find out the guy i met while at work one day here in Pennsylvania and started dating, now almost at our one year anniversary mark is also from Long island. i keep saying i found this car… but in all honesty, i believe she found me for a reason. I think she was meant to be mine. She saved my life in so many ways. Its still so hard to believe everything that’s happened since i bought her. People tell me i need to write a book. 😂 Will do!
  5. Most of it i have. Had help putting in the rad support, also the shocks i had help. I can’t take all the credit though. No matter where I go someone wants to get their hands on her lol my adopted dad surprised me one day by putting in a new steering wheel and fixing the carpet. This summer I have to weld in a new trunk pan. Should be interesting, i bought a mig welder before i could weld. But i cant mess the trunk up anymore then it is right? 😂
  6. So I don’t know how to upload pics to posts yet but i made an album lol
