My love for GTO's began in 1973 when my buddy Joey got his 1965 GTO. It was bad! Green, 4 speed, 389HT, Cragers, sweet. In 1974 my friend Brian shows up with a 1969 GTO 4 speed and I told myself someday I will have a goat. I could only dream. In 1979 I found myself in the Mojave, a hot, dry and broke 20 year old staying with my uncle. I had a KZ 500, two stroke, three cylinder, the suicide bike. I met a girl (she is still my wife to this day and mother of my 3 great kids) anyway she tells me she cannot go out with me on the bike. Her mom says no way. OK then,  I sell the bike & look for a car to buy. I find a 1968 GTO convertible 4 speed in the paper for 400.00  That can't be right. I call, yes that's correct. I go up to get the car and the owner tells me he changed his mind, no sale. I offer him 50.00 more, let him keep the battery and the car is mine. I'm thrilled! No top, faded yellow, one headlight, bald tires, I got a flat on the way back. Now here it is over 25 years later and I'm still building this car. Right now I am putting the interior in it. It's almost ready for the road. Well not the everyday road, my 69 GTO is for that, but that's another 520HP story.
