Kenny Pascoe's 1967 GTO!

[Xplantdad]

I WAS WALKING THRU SPRING CARLISLE THIS PAST APRIL WONDERING WHERE ALL THE GOOD CARS ARE HIDING THESE DAYS. I WALKED THE ENTIRE FAIRGROUNDS AND WITHIN A STONE THROW AWAY FROM MY CAR CORRAL SPOT WAS THIS 67 GTO PICTURED BELOW.

I WALKED AROUND THE CAR AND WAS IMPRESSED WITH THE CONDITION OF THIS VEHICLE. TEXAS RUST FREE ORIGINAL SHEET METAL, FULL #'S MATCHING DRIVE TRAIN, OPTIONS INCLUDE 400 4 BBL, P/S, FACTORY COLD A/C, 4 SPEED, RALLY GAUGES, WOOD WHEEL, CONSOLE, AM/FM RADIO, F+R SPEAKER, AND RALLY WHEELS.

CAR WAS SOLD NEW OUT OF LEO JARNAGIN PONTIAC IN FORT WORTH TEXAS. I SAID TO MYSELF THIS WOULD BE AN AWESOME CAR TO ENJOY FOR THE SUMMER. I PURCHASED THE CAR AND DROVE IT TO MY CAR CORRAL SPOT. I AM WIPING THE CAR DOWN AND AM GETTING BOMBARDED WITH QUESTIONS, HOW MUCH, WHERE WAS THIS CAR HIDING, ETC... I WAS TELLING PEOPLE I BOUGHT IT TO BRING HOME. A FRIEND OF MINE COMES UP TO ME AND PULLS ME ASIDE AND TELLS ME HE WANTS THE CAR. HE MAKES ME AN OFFER AND I ACCEPTED WITH THE UNDERSTANDING I CAN HAVE 1ST SHOT AT BUYING IT BACK. NEEDLESS TO SAY I OWNED THE CAR FOR 20 MINUTES.

2 MONTHS GO BY AND ANOTHER FRIEND OF MINE CONS ME INTO SELLING HIM MY LOW MILEAGE 69 Z/28 THAT I WAS USING FOR THE SUMMER. { I GOT SOME FRIENDS HUH ??} ONCE THAT LEFT I NEEDED A CAR FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE SUMMER. I CALL UP MY FRIEND AND TOLD HIM I WOULD LIKE TO BUY THE GTO BACK AS I WANTED A DRIVER FOR THE SUMMER LIKE I INTENDED. HE SAID I CAUGHT HIM AT A GOOD TIME AS HE NEEDED SOME SPACE IN THE GARAGE.

THE CAR IS AWESOME IN EVERY WAY, EVERYTHING WORKS, THE A/C IS ICE COLD AND IS A PLEASURE TO DRIVE. THANKS TO GEORGE LYONS FOR INITIALLY SELLING ME THE CAR AND TO JIM FROM MWCLASSIC FOR THE AWESOME PICS BELOW. ENJOY!!
