looks nice! good green. Green interior is much and i can say that as mine it tooo blue. blue inside and out... want to go with white seat/door panels to break it up.

your would look good with black carpets or just the way it is. sweet ride and i always liked the thrust wheels...

Everyone to the green bean, my father is trading it for a 1966 GTO convertible this coming Sunday. I will be sad to see it go, I've truly enjoyed this car over the years. (both driving it and working on it)

The GTO is dark blue with a white top and interior. 389 4bbl, 3 speed manual. It is a real "242" VIN car. I'll be sure to post some pictures by Monday.

It is hard to see a part of the family go. But there are always new adventures to be had.

Today was the day...

A teaser of the "new" GTO



And a final goodbye to an old friend.

I guess I am just biased, but I think given a choice between the two, I would still take the Chevelle. Not to say the Goat isn't nice and it certainly would grow on me!

I really will miss the Chevelle, had lots of good times with that car. My father got a little choked up today explaining how much this GTO means to him. In his own words, he remembers being sixteen in 1966... drooling over brand new GTOs. And, "Not having a pot to piss in" - let alone enough money to afford one. Now, nearly 50 years later... he owns one.
