Back the first of June I showed my 86 GT w/4.9 at he "Pontiacs in Pigeon Forge" car show in Tenn. The Velocity channel had a crew there to fil some of the show cars. Much to my surprise they picked my car as well as others to feature on their show. The show will air on July 25th at 9 am. I can't wait to watch it. I just hope I don't look like some redneck fcountry bumpkin on TV. But I was thrilled to death. Can't wait.

Congratulations, Jack. I grabbed the remote to program it to record the program, but I can only advance up to the 14th. I like to watch redneck country bumpkins on TV, having been one most of my life.

Met you and enjoyed looking at your car this spring at the Daytona Spring Turkey Run / Fiero Show. Very nice car. The program (Lokar) just ran this morning, around 8am. Great story. Congrats!

Jack, just watched the show tonight, a very nice interview! I am glad I got to meet you, and see the car in person at Daytona this year. I hope to see you and your wife back again next year!
Oh Jack, almost forgot, Sarah Palin says hello

Yes, that is Hulki's autograph. Met him at the 20th. That woman did look like Pallin don't you think?

Cool interview! I'm glad that Pat reposted it, since the Comcastards don't see fit to give us the Velocity channel.
