First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... Not a lawyer, but could you imagine the bad PR if word got out that the soon-to-be-defunct Pontiac Motor Company was hassling a bunch of Firebird enthusiasts who were just trying to promote their Firebird car show? They (Pontiac) should be our biggest sponsor!!
Unless we get some REAL legal advice to the contrary, I vote we go for it based on the premise that A) it's easier to get forgiveness than permission, and B) they're shutting down the brand anyway, so why would they care if we use it? My two cents.
