About bencar’s Garage

 

About me and my passion for cars

I grew up in a household headed up by a Mechanical Engineer, from the time I was old enough to know what's what, I was surrounded by machinery, people who talked about mechanical devices, and of course cars. I've been active in the hob by for over 32 years, restord 2 cars, run a Car Club, write for the Pontiac-Oakland Club International (http://www.poci.org), and PontiacRegistry.com (http://www.pontiacregistry.com). I also belong to the National Firebird & Trans Am Club, and the National Street Machine Club.
