    Beautiful work. Beautiful car. It must be an experience just driving around in it.

    What`s it got under the hood. If I`m not mistake, I think the hot engine was the 383.

    Nice looking car, and it`s a convertible. Definitely a keeper.

    Thanks, my dad went with a 400 w/ 3.55 and a 4 speed, as my dad said it is a man eater.

    Sounds like a nice setup. I had a 67 Camaro with a 350, 3.90 gears and a M21 4 speed. The car could smoke the tires down the 1/4 mile. Your dad`s car is sweeter, but I really miss that car.

    Beautiful car. My first car was a 66 GTO. Bought it for $300. More car than a 15 year old should have. I loved this car even if it was broken more then it ran. What great memories.

    Beautiful car. Hope my final detailing comes out that good on my 69 GTO Judge. Just about done with it. I still have to apply the wax and then take the pictures. )

    What products did you or your dad use for detailing your GTO?

    I had a 67 Goat with a 400 with the slap stick tranmission. NOw a real fast car off the line but at 50 you could bark the tires. I miss that car!

    Nice work on the car lots of good summer crusing
