Pontiac PIZAZZ!
Two Pontiac Greats Collaborate on a New Book

Starting in the late 50s throughout Pontiac’s glory days, two men who put indelible marks on this great period were Jim Wangers and Art Fitzpatrick. Jim Wangers, the “Godfather of the GTO” for his tireless marketing and promotion efforts. Art Fitzpatrick, who with his partner Van Kaufman (Fitz & Van), produced some of the greatest car art of all-time for Pontiac’s Wide-Track advertisements. Now, both in their 80s, Jim Wangers and Art Fitzpatrick have collaborated on a new book, Pontiac PIZAZZ! where they have assembled perhaps the best collection ever of GR-RRReat Pontiacs from those glory days.

This 12x12-inch coffee table book features narrative by Jim Wangers, who was right there running through the gears, accompanied by 15 new paintings by Art Fitzpatrick, along with his commentary on the cars as well.

Read about what went into the making of many of Pontiac's marketing triumphs like those of the '63 Grand Prix, the original '64 GTO and even the famed Monkeemobile. This book salutes the style and performance that made Pontiac the car to own then...and marvel over today!

With the foreword written by Paul Zazarine, Pontiac PIZAZZ! is being released as a numbered "Collector Edition" book with a padded cover as well as in a beautiful hardbound edition suitable for your coffee-table collection. Both version of this book will be personally autographed by the authors.

Cruisin' Woodward DVD
On this 30 minute DVD, Jim Wangers takes you on a ride, a “video cruise” down the infamous Woodward Avenue reminiscing about Pontiac’s glory days…the days you’d see such industry legends as George Hurst, Herb Adams, and of course John DeLorean all driving very well set up (some by the factories) musclecars.

From the Totem Pole to Ted’s Drive-In and a stop at the old Royal Pontiac, ride along with Jim as he shares his memories of Woodward Avenue, identifying the famous sites of the 60s.

Like they say, “a picture is worth a 1000 words.”  This DVD is packed with great video information and some really grrr-eat Pontiac music recorded from Jim’s collection of old vinyl 45 rpm Pontiac singles.
