Welcome
I am so excited! The DVD that was professionally produced is done. My son, Tim, has his own business doing web design and multi-media. He did all the background work. The DVD was filmed in my shop, with Tim and a professional photographer. It is nearly 90 minutes of video, covering many aspects of dealing with Pontiac and Oldsmobile tripowers. I have been answering questions on these units for nearly 20 years. Now, you get this information in video form with my narration. The DVD has an index, so you can click to the area you want to view. You can see a list of the topics in one of the pictures below.
Purchase this DVD in the shopping cart. Click here... http://www.pontiactripower.com/shop/Tripower_DVD/
To see a second clip off the DVD, please visit the product page.
I want this page to offer all the parts needed to restore your tripower, including the small detail parts no one else bothers to sell. If you check my items available from the shopping cart, you will see I offer more parts than any other supplier. I may have small parts and even used original "hard to find " parts available that are not in the shopping cart. Feel free to e-mail me if you need something you cannot find.
In the PARTS FOR SALE section, you will find that I have many small parts that are not available elsewhere. I also carry parts that other suppliers carry. However, I supply pictures of each part, and hints about installation.
In the SERVICES section, I describe services I offer for repair and/or restoration of your tripower.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS is just that. Over the last several years, I have found myself answering the same questions over and over. This section address many of those areas. Please read through it before e-mailing me. When you click on this section above, you will see three more sections, described below. Once in the FAQ area, you can click on these for more content.
- The ID YOUR TRIPOWER section gives intake part numbers as well as pictures. People pick up tripowers at swap meets, garage sales, or from friends. This section should help you identify what you have.
- TRIPOWER MYTHS is just that and it is, essentially, my old webpage that my son and I put up in 1996. It is still relevant
- Lets Communicate More Effectively section has an illustration of a Rochester 2 bbl carb with parts labeled.
In the PHOTOS section, I plan to do several things. If one of you needs a photo of a tripower related part, or has one to share, let me know. I may post them here with a search function for others to use. However, I am asking my customers (and others) to send me pictures of your cars. If you want me to give your name, or any interesting details about the car, let me know.
In the NEWS section, I plan to communicate any interesting facts, stories, or hints related primarily to the hobby in general, or specifically to tripowers. Just my way of keeping in touch and getting you to come back from time to time. If you have a something you think would be an appropriate, send me an e-mail, and I may include it.
The NEWSLETER section is, essentially a way to get on my mailing list. I will not share your e-mail addresses with anyone else. I have been getting hundreds (and more) of e-mails and I have never shared this information. What I will do it inform you of any new products related to the tripower. Or, any information relative to new developments in the hobby. As soon as I get 25 or so enrolled, I will send out a newsletter regarding an important topic...OIL ADDITIVES REQUIRED FOR FLAT TAPPET CAMS....
Hope the information on the site helps you to keep your car looking good. Here in Illinois, we have Winter. Think of this. First nice Spring day, say 65 degrees, fat air. You roll down the windows, back out of the drive and take a short ride. With the engine warmed up and running like it should, you get to kick all three carbs open!!!!! Tires scream, carbs howl....life is good!
