Car has been talked about here before. Not that nice in person and has been for sale for a while with some new owners. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif Just sold at Manheim around spring.

I think it needs more gauges! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif

Ive got plenty of those gauges sam!! You need some for the ZEE????? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

Re: awesome day 2 GTO
 

Trying to learn and just curious. I was surprised to see that this was a Candadian built car. McKeesport is very near Pittsburgh. Would it have been possible to get a Canadian built GTO delivered in the USA? Or would it have been possible for a dealer trade across the border?

Cool car - love ALL of the gauges. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Thanks!

The whitewalls are my favorite part.

To each his own, I guess but the whitewalls are killing me.
I had a '70 GTO convertible as a high school senior. Really nice piece. That's the one I still wish I had today. It had a 4 speed and the standard 400/350. That car ran REALLY well, especially considering it probably wasn't the lightest car on the road. The RA cars and the 455's must have been real beasts based on how well the 400 performed.

Yes, 35 years ago whitewalls would have been 100% UNCOOL. Today they seem to add to the sleeper look, especially in a sea of Rally-wheeled, redlined or white-lettered, cookie-cutter musclecars.

Abe,

What a great ride to have had as a senior! Do you think Sharon and her sisters would remember your car? I'll bet your goat didn't escape Bernard's attention. He has always appreciated fine motor cars. I'll bet you had the baddest ride on Park Avenue https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif !
