OOPS I meant to say I was going to put some of the interview in this thread, here is the set up:

The interview was conducted at the home ofMr. Carl Papke on December 28,1991.

Were you always into Pontiacs?
When I was a kid in high school I liked Dodges, because' 62 Dodges were the state police cars. They were already starting to get a reputation. I don't remember knowing about' 62 421 Pontiacs at the time. I knew about state police cars. I wasn't aware of Pontiacs until I was 17 years old. I got into a '63 421 Super Duty Catalina that was owned by a guy by the name of Joe Fercowitz. He's dead now. He got killed in that car. Right over here west of Silverwood, went off the road do in 'over a hundred miles an hour and it killed him. His brother John still runs the farm over there. But Joe gave me a ride in his Super Duty Pontiac. The most God-awful thing [ ever rode in in my life. We went north out of Clifford goin' out towards the power plant. There was a substation out there. il was probably a quarter mile flat stretch, and we were well up to a hundred miles an hour and stoppin' by the time we go down on the comer, which was a half a mile. That thing had tri-power on it, it was just screamin' and haulin' ass. II was a real car. I never thought about Dodges again after that.
