Ok Gang! Please read the note we received below from Hemmings Classic Car magazine looking for young hobbyists (in our case, of course, Pontiac hobbyists).
This would be a great chance for PontiacRegistry.com to get some publicity also out of this deal. If any of our members know of a younger Pontiac hobbyist who might be interested in persuing this, I would be happy to help with fixing-up a short story or working on photos for them to submit. If you know of a young Pontiac hobbyist who would do this, but is not a member of Pontiacregistry.com, I will give them a free membership just for participating in the Hemmings offer.
Read below and contact me at: larry.kummer@pontiacregistry.com if you want any help.
Thanks!


Greetings fellow car enthusiasts!

My name is Jeff Koch, and I‚m a writer for Hemmings Classic Car magazine. I'm hoping that you can help us with a project we're doing.

If you've read the magazine, you‚ll know we do a monthly page called "Next Generation" it's about the under-25 crowd and their commitment to driving/fixing/enjoying old cars and the hobby.

We are currently searching for a group of Under 25s who own and/or repair their own car (preferably 1960s-era or earlier, though 70s are OK) to a stock, or semi-stock, format. (No hot rods please!) The cars do not have to be in like-new condition, they can be "drivable dream" quality. Putting your grandchild in front of your car and claiming it's his or hers isn't going to work.

This letter is an open invitation to any licensed driver/owner under the age of 25 in this club who fits this criteria to contact me directly about who they are, what they drive and why. To get started, we really only need a little bit of information: name, age, hometown, what the car is, and a few words on how they got into old cars and why they like to own and drive them. (one-line emails like "I have a nice old Ford pls put me in the mag thx" will not be considered.) Photos of car and owner are a bonus also. As for the rest, we will take it from there. And I'm sure any club member we find will be happy to give your club a plug in our monthly 100,000+ circulation magazine.

Anyone who fits the above criteria is welcome to contact me directly at jkoch@hemmings.com. Feel free to post this on a website message board, print in a newsletter/club magazine, or put it anywhere you think it will generate the most interest! If you are not the right person to receive this message, please send it to the proper authorities.I look forward to meeting the next generation of classic car enthusiasts!

Sincerely,
Jeff Koch
