Default Re: Wild "Day Two" 1967 GTO 4 Spd-You Gotta See Th

Jim,

I wasn't alive in the year where any meaningful "before" pics could have been taken

There has been no (as in zero/none) paint or interior work done, other than complete disassembly to clean everything and put it back together. When the engine was rebuilt we did our best to make the new paint on it have patina,

and I replaced the awful 1980's M/T valve covers

with original 67 GTO chrome ones, and also a "seasoned" Cal Custom air cleaner as you can see.

Other than a good bath nothing has been done to the paint in over 20 years. I'm sure waxing it would make it nice and shiny, but it looks so cool like this I left it alone.

Hope this answers your question.

Colin

the "awful" M/T valve covers are as much of the "charm" of this car as is the paint, 8 track, wheels and fuzzy arm rests, *I* would have left them on ...
