Notes From the Chief

Rick Mihm

Season Greetings Pontiaddicts!

I can’t believe the holidays are on

us already! I hope you all had a

great Thanksgiving! With

Christmas rounding the turn and

heading down the home stretch, I

hope you all have a Merry, Pontiac

Christmas and a safe Happy New

Year celebration!

For me, the holidays bring a bitter

sweet end to a wonderful, exciting

year as the club’s president. At the

last meeting I announced I was

trying to sell my house and move to

Idaho where my two grandsons are.

As of right now, I have two houses

in escrow, the one I am selling and

the one I’m buying in Idaho. I am

currently in an inspection period

and I am doing my due diligence. I

am 99% sure this deal is going to

happen around the 20th of

December. At that time, I will have

to step down as the club’s

president.

If I may, I would like to reflect on

the great things that happened in

this club this year. First off, I want

to thank our VP, Tom Diot, for

getting me through the first couple

of months. Also with Tom’s

awesome newsletter, along with

two San Diego Pontiac Club

members showcasing their cars on

nationwide television show, Wrench

Wars, put our club back on the

map, which by the way will air on

the 9th of December on MAVTV at 8

PM PST. Second, the club

organized 5 cruises this year; an

Easter Cruise, a cruise to Jim

Wangers, a cruise to the Julian

Mines, a Cops & Rodders Cruise and

finally a cruise to Josie’s Hideout

which all were successful. We also

had a record breaking 17 participants

at our annual Highway Cleanup

where Chaz and I found $20 each.

We had a couple of great turnouts at

STP Restaurant for Pontiac &

Burgers. Thank you Tina and Shane

(just kidding Shannon)!

Furthermore, I witnessed our club

meeting participation go from 10 to

over 20, sometimes almost 30

members. With new members came

a new logo with shirts, hats, and

stickers! A special thanks to Serge

for donating 20 shirts to offer to new

joining members. To conclude, I went

to a lot of car shows and cruise nights

passing out flyers with Bill, Geoff,

and JC in hopes of growing our car

show. I want to thank Stan for

donating a ton of stuff for our car

show goody bags.

Honestly, I felt I ran this club this

year like I was drag racing… pedal to

the metal! I know I still had a lot to

learn, but my goal was to “Make

Pontiac Great Again!” I am sure

going miss everyone. I will continue

to follow the club on Facebook.

Thanks for a great year! Merry

Christmas and have a Happy New

Year.

Rick Mihm,

President

LUNCH WITH JIM WANGERS!

Jim Wangers’ 1965 GTO was bought by Jordan

“Joker” Smith. Jordan did a fully documented

complete restoration on the GTO. Recently,

J.C. Dumas and “Old Man” Jim Taylor had lunch

with Jim Wangers. It was a good day! While we were

there, OM Jim brought out the restoration book

that Jordan Smith made of the GTO for Jim

Wangers to sign. "Joker" has really fixed up the

beautiful GTO documenting it with two binders full

of photos. Jim was delighted to see his “old” car

again!

SDPOCI SHIPS GIFTS TO THE TROOPS!

By Tom Diot

On Veteran’s Day, my Wife and I packed up two “goodie” boxes to send to US

Military Service Members. One box is going to South Korea and the other is

headed for Bahrain. We filled the boxes with all of your generous donations:

Smoke Signals magazines, sunflower seeds, pens, pads greeting cards,

batteries, wipes, Chap Stick, cookies, crackers, toothbrushes, toothpaste,

puzzle books, coffee, candy and more! We shipped them thru the US Post

Office for safe delivery. On November 27th, we received a notice that one of

the packages has been delivered to an agent for final delivery!! When we

receive a communication from the recipients, we will share it with the Club.

Thank you to all the Patriots who donated to this great cause. Please keep

bringing your donations to our monthly meeting as I already have another

Service Member’s address who is deployed on the USS Abraham Lincoln.

DECEMBER 2019

The San Diego Chapter of the Pontiac Oakland Club Inter-

national (POCI) was founded in 1989. We are a club dedi-

cated to the preservation and enjoyment of all models of

Pontiacs of all years. We drive ‘em, work on ‘em, polish

‘em, restore ‘em, break ‘em, put ‘em back together again

and have great fun doing it! We are individuals, couples,

and families that enjoy getting together for a variety of ac-

tivities. We host an annual Fall Pow-Wow car show every

summer, and participate as a club in other local and re-

gional shows. We hold annual pool and Christmas parties,

participate in many of the San Diego cruise nights, organ-

ize automotive factory, speed shop and museum tours, and
