----If this "Bill Yakkel" ran at 42 then I saw it run. I rarely missed a weekend there as it was only about 20 minutes from my Dads house. Very cool old Poncho......Bill S

----Don,,,That is one seriously cool old GTO. I cant seem to remember it at "42" but if you saw the birthday announcements you can probably figure out that my memory isnt what it once was. Wish I could pull it out of whats left of my brain as Ill bet it was a ball to watch......Bill S

Just noticed the car does not have the wood grain on the IP cluster. We are starting to see some number of documented '65 GTOs that were built that way (three or so).

Also diggin' the redundant tach, and underdash mounted gages - like these:



Those have been in that same spot for 47 years or so (our car was built without the tach, even though it was ordered with it)
