— Open Blogger

Usual rules.....first correct answer gets a Platinum Membership with the optional ampersand utility.

Extra year of membership for the correct engine.

Lifetime membership if you name the Moron in the photo. (hint: it's not Vic)

The rule committee has agreed to a special prize for most elegant answer that may or may not be correct: One Get-Out-of-Barrel-Free card.

And the answer is: 1967 Pontiac Grand Prix. Yeah, not much detail.
So sue me.

21 It is a Pontiac Bonneville.

22 I can't believe after all the grief I got over a Maverick Grabber we get a tank as a muscle car!!! eleventy.

And we have "peddle pushers" instead of corduroys?

Has to be early early 60s.

Were they listening to the Ventures over the car radio?

23 4 Is it Vic? Posted by: Caesar Salad at March 15, 2013 10:35 AM (CZCbG) Vicki?

Posted by: J.J. Sefton at March 15, 2013 06:41 AM (XkWWK)

Oooh, this is tough! The question is, which is the Moron? The baby, the one holding the baby, or the one observing?

I'm going with ... Tami!

Unless the baby is not a baby, in which case I think the baby is AtC.

Posted by: MWR, Proud Tea(rrorist) Party Assault Hobbit [/s][/i][/u][/b] at March 15, 2013 06:42 AM (4df7R)

25 Actually, if it was a '66 impala, it would have the high-back Astro bucket seats. This could be a '65.

Posted by: AllenG (Dedicated Tenther) Channelling Breitbart at March 15, 2013 06:42 AM (4OvDk)

27 Yeah, it's definitely a Ponitac, probably Bonneville. The giveaway for me is the chassis half-covering the rear wheel.

Posted by: J.J. Sefton at March 15, 2013 06:42 AM (XkWWK)

28 Is that Ron Jeremy holding up the baby? Don't think I've ever seen him clean-shaven.

BCochran's mom.

If that's BCochran getting manhandled in the pic, then that means he should be in his 40's.

31 I'm no car gal. So, a Pontiac is about all I've got as a guess.

Posted by: no good deed at March 15, 2013 06:43 AM (mjR67)

32 I was going to say Bonneville at first, but the front bumper didn't look right. the 67 Grand Prix had that bumper

Posted by: kbdabear at March 15, 2013 06:43 AM (mCvL4)

33 That's one of those cars that after pressing the gas from a standstill the hood comes up so far you can't see the road. I miss that too.

BTW, that hair? Yeah, that was my hair through most of middle and high school. And yes, that was in the late 80s-early 90s.

No, it was not deliberate.

41 Well, it's not green, so it can't be a Ford Maverick...

Posted by: AllenG (Dedicated Tenther) Channelling Breitbart at March 15, 2013 06:44 AM (4OvDk)

42 It is some kind of Pontiac but without a front or rear view I can not tell.

Posted by: Vic at March 15, 2013 06:44 AM (53z96)

43 Hint that it's pre-1968;

No side reflectors or lights that became mandatory for cars sold in America in 1968

Posted by: kbdabear at March 15, 2013 06:44 AM (mCvL4)

67 Pontiac Bonneville, 400 ci, four-bolt main.

Mom had the 67 Catalina fastback, basically the same car, but a bit lower trim level.

Rode like a dream, steered like a barge, stopped like a supertanker. Wish I had it today.

I'm pretty sure, if my dad sees that picture, he'll say, "See that car? I had one just like it."

The number of random cars my father owned and subsequently trashed via crashing at insane speeds in his youth makes it a miracle I was ever born.

Now...the hard part is figuring out who the moron that was raised by a lesbian couple is.

Posted by: EC at March 15, 2013 06:53 AM (GQ8sn)

92 1964 Galaxy

The white car in the background is one of those, I think. The one we're supposed to guess looks like a Pontiac that's newer than I think the picture is. I can't tell Pontiacs apart.

It's a picture of really good hair.

That looks like a Northern State so if they were packing there would be a car with a bubble gum machine on top in the picture.

Posted by: Vic at March 15, 2013 06:54 AM (53z96)

99 Definitely a '67-68 GM. Not a Pontiac (no over-under headlights).

I'll go with an Impala Convertible. 357 ci engine.

The moron is the baby. Someone slightly younger than me - rules out OSP I think.

There have been some obviously wrong answers, but that... that just hurts me. Hurts me real bad.

My guess is Catalina, but whatever it is, it's quite a stretch to refer to it as muscle car.

Looks like a 55 or 56 Desoto, and the car parked in front of it looks like a Rambler from around 1960. Not sure on the year, but that's definitely a Rambler

My dad had a Desoto. My Brother and I....mostly my brother, managed to release the parking brake, and it rolled backward down the driveway, across the street, and into a ditch. Asses were belted that day.

Chevy didn't make a 327 in '55, the 327 didn't come out till '62. And it wasn't offered in the Bel Air with a four-barrel carb till '64. However, in 1964, the correct ignition timing would be four degrees before top-dead-center.

I read you're post there.

Interesting take.

They'll always throw out wild accusations for any pope who came from somewhere unstable (Ratzinger was a Nazi I tell you! He killed people with his bare hands.)

In any case, I'm sure the story is for more complicate than the smear factory would have it.

Plus I know more than a few of the Jesuits in that region were interested in taking up arms themselves. I'm not sure how that affects the calculus, but I'm sure it does. ("I can't protect you." is not the same as "I'm turning you over." One is a practical reality. The other is worse.)

Posted by: John House at March 15, 2013 07:11 AM (GS103)

157 Not a GTO - that was built from the Chevelle/Skylark/Tempest frame.

This is a 2 door version of one of GM's larger frames, which in the mid 60's included the Impala, Catalina, Olds 88, LeSabre, and a couple Cadillacs.

The center bump on the nose, barely visible, tells you this is a Pontiac - that was their signature for most of their existence. The 2 door convertible on the largest frame they made that year tells you it was the Grand Prix. This is a '67 model.

Engine options that year were either a 400 c.i. V8 or the 428. No special tags on the fender indicating the H.O. engine option, so I'll go with the 400.

Look up the Wiki page on the Grand Prix and about halfway through you'll find a picture of a red '67 Grand Prix, just like this one, on display at the Smithsonian Institution.

I don't know what the catholic moral theory would say either if the church as a whole were threatened because of the actions of those few Jesuits.

It gets really tricky if they weren't doing anything wrong per se (for example merely engaging in civil disobedience.)

I could see a convincing argument that if they're operating outside the moral boundaries of the church (i.e. arming people, etc.) that the obligation to protect them at the expense of others is severely weakened.

This is the Pope Pius problem all over again. Did he do enough during WWII? It's really hard to tell (doubly so since he was surrounded by Italy.)

I've read multiple variants of it that range from the "liberate your soul while accepting the crap on earth" (which really isn't right either) to "take up arms" which is in DIRECT CONFLICT WITH THE BIBLE. and everything in between.

Maybe we'll get lucky and this pope will finally squash it.

I once heard a theology heavily influence by liberation theology claiming that stealing equipment from Harvard and shipping it to poor countries clinics was "non-violent" because..uh..I guess physical violence is the only type of violence? Oh and also when Harvard threatened charges against the professor (it was $50,000 microscope) someone came through with the money to pay them back, so not stealing.

Her Co-panelist responded "I'm fairly certain the 10 commandments are clear on this one."

210 I just grabbed the photo and blew it up 200%. Looking at that tuck-in-roll interior reminds me of my grandfather's car. I am going to go with the 67 Pontiac Grand Prix convertible.

And who ever the Moron is is somewhere in the midwest and North. Perhaps Heatherradish?

1966 was the last year for the 389/421 engine, replaced with the 400/428 in '67.

Oops. If the moron fits, wear it.

I had one of those in the mid-70's. The back seat was the size of a football stadium. The kids could really play back there!

Looks to be a67 Pontiac, lack of side trim says Catalina, probably 389 2bbl.

230 My guess is HR also - the landscape looks quite a lot like suburban Milwaukee circa late sixties. Looks like a freeway overpass in the distance, too. Seems likely the view is to the west.

231 Peugeot 403 convertible, like Det. Colombo used to drive.

233

Holy Shit!

This was my first car! (not a convertible, though)

1967 Pontiac Catalina with the small block 400 with the turbo hydromatic 400 automatic transmission.

No BS, I used to put 4 friends into the trunk and sneak 'em into the drive-in. this along with 5 inside with room to spare. And the back seat? It was the size of a double bed. The perfect car for a guy in high school, if you know what I mean.

As Jim said above, I sure wish I had it back.

Posted by: Gunslinger at March 15, 2013 08:28 AM (4S7hN)

234 '69 catalina, 389, note the lack of a "400" emblem

Posted by: me at March 15, 2013 08:39 AM (m02pB)

235 Knowing the Horde heritage/inheritance, it's most likely a stripper Tempest with the much-unloved OHC Six. They sure get big fast. The Tempests, not the kids.

Posted by: bob in houston at March 15, 2013 09:22 AM (fJoZd)

238 67 Pontiac Catalina convertible or 67 Grand Prix convertible, but my guess is Catalina due to lack of running board trim (Grand Prix a far fancier model). My father had a 67 Pontiac Catalina convertible identical to that in the picture (complete with fender skirts). He let me drive it while I was in high school and I had the time of my life destroying his beautiful car. P.S. Pontiacs had 400's in them in 67, last year for 389's was 66.

Posted by: Bill Carson at March 15, 2013 09:35 AM (QMCps)

239 Complete answer: 67 Pontiac Catalina convertible with premium fuel 400 and 2bbl carb (290 HP).

Posted by: Bill Carson at March 15, 2013 09:51 AM (QMCps)

240 Definitely 67 Pontiac, looks long enough to be a Bonneville, probably the 400 that most Bonnies and Catalina's came with that year, but it could be a 428.

Posted by: Ross at March 15, 2013 09:52 AM (DU9hE)

241 definitely NOT a Grand Prix.

Posted by: Ross at March 15, 2013 09:53 AM (DU9hE)

242

Grand Prixs, Catalinas, and Bonnevilles were all of different length from wheel-to-wheel that year; Grand Prix shortest, Catalina in the middle, Bonneville the longest.

Posted by: Ross at March 15, 2013 09:57 AM (DU9hE)

243 Hmmm...

'69 Pontiac Bonneville, I'm guessing a small-block eight - 327-2bl w/ 3sp auto on the wheel. The big blocks probably had the badge on the front fender. Bonneys had the rear wheel skirt option. Not a lot of chrome on this puppy, so I'm guessing "entry level."

Posted by: Ran Hay at March 15, 2013 09:59 AM (Ew1ke)

244 I would say, from the most recent comments, that you can bet it is a Pontiac of some sort. So, I got part of it correct! My late father would be proud, as he taught me my cars when I was a little Christy to keep me from asking if we were there yet on car trips.

Posted by: ChristyBlinky at March 15, 2013 10:02 AM (baL2B)

245 So who is the 'ette?

Posted by: EC at March 15, 2013 10:32 AM (GQ8sn)

246 correct and it's a convertible. Ching.
Ted Kennedy preferred those other '67 GM lead sleds. I'll bet a convertible would've helped him at some time or another. Maybe not....

after all...it's Teddy.

Posted by: Tim at March 15, 2013 10:57 AM (4fQHh)

247 Actually, it looks like the chrome has been stripped off.

Posted by: Ross at March 15, 2013 11:13 AM (DU9hE)

248 I got the year and Pontiac correct but called it a GTO. So, just missed. Darn.

Posted by: ChristyBlinky at March 15, 2013 11:26 AM (baL2B)
