After the '66 convertible was stolen a few months ago, I've been buying/selling and waiting for something else interesting
'something else' just popped up
1966 GTO, original Tripower 4spd (high output) with ram air package (rare) and special order paint code Tiger gold (factory order, rare, special charge...wait...etc)
Tiger gold cars are what pontiac made into the GeeToh tigers back in the day...factory sponsored racecars
$90 extra just for the paint...on a car that was less than 3,000 total
I have the original build sheet, window sticker, title...etc
Car has been a show car or drag car for all of its life: 15,000 original miles and rust free
Now sporting the whole race theme
Currently has a ram air IV motor in it, 400 pontiac
i have the original 389 sitting safely in the back of the garage...and several 455's to rebuild at some point (after i enjoy this for a while)
has an auto th350 in it with 3800 stahl and heavy shift kit at the moment...and shakes the ground (no exhaust)
Needs a lot of interior work...as it had a roll cage and was gutted. I'm working on that. Just got it running again.
The first time i got it fired up (hadn't been moving in a while), my feet were hanging outside the car. The pebbles in front of the headers hurt my bare feet from being pushed by the headers. It's wild/fun/cool
Hopefully i'll take it to Quaker Steak sometime soon

I'll store this one a bit more carefully...after the last experience
