The oil cans at the Pontiac Museum are or were the collection of Tim Dye. He was very active in this hobby plus he was also a Pontiac collector. He was so active in Pontiacs that he became the creator of the Pontiac Museum In Pontiac, Illinois.
Tim was a writer for 'Check the Oil" and a very good friend of Ed Love, they worked together with Ed's publications the "Tiger Rag" and "Tiger Royal" both publication about this hobby. For a short time Tim had his own magazine called "Tiger Highest."
I believe Tim was from Tulsa, OK and sponsored a swap meet in Tulsa for a few years.
A nicer guy you will never meet.
