2 owner car which I purchased from a local dealership in the summer of 1979 after I graduated high school and the car was less than a year old and like new. The car originally was a Solar Gold Limited Edition model, I rebuilt the engine in 1984 the block was bored .30 over with forged pistons a crane cam, Edelbrock Perfomer aluminum intake with a Holley Street Avenger carburetor, the Turbo 350 automatic trans has a B&M Transpack and 2500 stall speed converter newly rebuilt with less than 300 miles, 10 bolt positraction rear diff with 3.73 gears, new Flowtec aluminum headers , new exhaust with Flowmaster Super 40's, new power steering pump, hoses and gear box, new ft brake calipers, new chrome alternator and valve covers, new suspension bushings, ball joints and shocks, the BF Goodrich Radial T/.A's have low mileage. The interior is new right down to the steering wheel and carpet, the only improvement would be to replace the dash and front seat belts.
I customized the body by molding in the flares to the fenders and quarters, added window etching and changed the color to a midnight blue metallic paint from BASF in 2011 this car runs great and handles like new, its going to be very hard for me  but I feel its time to let go, it seems ashamed to let it just sit in the garage, I only drive it  to car shows in the fall and put less than 100 miles on it a year. the car is not flawless, but  is extremely nice with a mirror finish!

Wanted: 1967 Pontiac GTO for a special Father's Day

Thu, 07 Jun 2012

Jim Sharp of Elkhorn, Wisconsin needs a red 1967 Pontiac GTO to make his dad's Father's Day, possibly his last one, something extra special.
Back in the '60s, Jim's dad, Ken, drove a cherry red 1967 GTO to California for a job. He met a girl, got married and decided his wife's 1965 Ford Mustang was more fuel efficient than the Goat and the GTO was sold. As the story almost always goes, Ken has had seller's regret ever since.
Jim always meant to find a 1967 GTO and, with his dad's help, restore it. But life got in the way, time slipped by and Ken was recently diagnosed with esophageal cancer and given about three months to live.
