Thanks so much... I love to see pic of my car back then. I sure thank you for them.

I have finally got my hands on a GTO emblem that is the last piece of the puzzle on this car. I think I have enough to go ahead with the letter to Joel now. He must have cut the connecting bar close to the letters and used the G & T along with a SS427 Impalla emblem to make the letters on the back. It is easy to see that they fit to the holes that have been filled in on the back exactly. I was starting to sweat that I was on the wrong track till I got a GTO emblem and saw that it would only have one pin to hold on each letter. I had 5 holes that had been filled in(3 are filled by the SS427) and was looking for where the other two must have been when I realized that the GTO emblem solved that question.

I noticed your hood scoop is closed in front while the scoop on the car in Cars mag had an horizontal opening. Does it look like your scoop was fiberglass shut at one time? Or was your hood replaced?

It has just been filled in - whoever it was, did a great job. even finished the underside too.

Where the SS427 GT emblem holes were filled in on the back of the car was a first class job also. There was no sign of srinkage and I never saw any sign they had been there till I stripped the paint off. Black usually will show up any previous body work in the right sunlight. This one didn't.
