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.

Jim's Favorite Race Car
1962 "Royal Pontiac" Catalina Super Duty "Hot Chief"
Royal
Pontiac fielded only one Super Stocker in 1962, a Super-Duty Catalina 2-DR
sedan, known affectionately as “The Hot Chief”. The 405 HP, dual quad 421 CID
Super Duty engine made the “Hot Chief” a winner right from the start, performing
near the NHRA Super Stock record almost every time out. Racing out of the famed
Detroit Dragway, Wangers and his big Pontiac held the track record for most of
the year with a 12:38 second ET at 116.32 mph.
A limited number of these great models are once again available. This 1:18 scale model is an exact recreation of this famous Super Duty "Hot Chief" racer...the very one that Jim Wangers drove for Royal Pontiac in 1962.
