Re: Best Pontiac Powered Stockers
That Knafel car reminded me of the other quick Knafel cars. In fact, the writing on the side said that Knafel had the " World's Fastest Pontiacs".
One of their '66 GTO's won lots of races. I've already posted a pic, but I'll try to post it again here. I accidentally discovered that I can crop a pic a little & change the title, and post it here, even if I've posted the same pic before. Good to know.
There were several big Pontiac dealers that fielded lots of drag Pontiacs, during the '60's & early '70's. I'll be mentioning many of these, in this thread. There were also probably lots of smaller Pontiac dealers that fielded one or maybe just a few drag cars. And, some dealers probably just let an independent racer put their dealer name on the car, for advertisement. Although we won quite a few races, I was never able to even get any sponsorship help from any Pontiac dealer. By the time we began racing, area dealers were just not interested in racing.
Royal Pontiac had quite a few quick Pontiacs. Here's a Royal '66. I assume they ran the last version of the Pontiac Tri-Power/389.
Knafel even ran a couple of OHC Six powered cars. One was a 'vert.
