Right now, one big check will take everything but the cars I inherited (I can't sell something left to me) including both my SC & the Carrera.

Hot damn! Nice!

I want your mirrors and wheels...

rjp

You really want my motor its a 462 stroker 525hp 450 at the wheels 575lbs of torque does 11s in the 1/4 mile the wheels are from wheel vintiques was able to cram 50s under there.

yep, you got a nice car. I'm using ported 5c heads and a UD 288/296 hyd cam with .485/.507 lift in mine- not sure if I can hit those HP #'s but its torquey as hell and even with stock gearing it drives well.- It can break the back end loose if I hit it hard at 35MPH..

I'm going for wheel setup like yours after the interior is put back together..

Mark, check your PM -

72 4 door - great looking Goat!

Thanks mark saw the thread on goats and couldnt resist showing it, i spent 5 years rebuilding it. just finished it last may. As far as daily drivers go,at 8 miles to the gallon it would ad up quick although you would get there quickly!and with a big ole smile.

Very nice GTO! 70 is my 2nd favorite year--would love to have a 70 Judge in orbit orange w/ a black vinyl roof.

(the 69 w/hideaways is my fave year)

I have a 69 GTO in my garage right now. My dad ordered it brand new when he got back from Vietnam and it served as our family car intil I turned 16. My dad had a 911 and my mother had a 68 XKE so the GTO was the only car we had that could really seat four. I will never sell it and sitting in it takes me back in time. Trips with the family as a kid, dates with girls and the weekend street races against friends.

It has factory air, factory 8-track and the required 4-speed transmission. It doesnt have power steering or power brakes, so driving it is like working out.

I also did a restomod on a 69 GTO conv several years ago that turned out very nice. Wish I still had that car. I sold it and bought my first 911

Pictures of both pleez...:D

Great looking 70. I really like how they modded those ralley II wheels. I had some made about ten years ago by a local company. Who did your motor work? sounds like it runs pretty hard.

I will have to dig up some of the hardtop. Don't have any on the computer of that one. Heres one of the Convertible at a car show several years ago.

Nice! And the ride height is just right. :)

The motor was built by a local speed shop it has e heads ported and polished bored 30 over with a stroker kit has over 500 lift w/ 1.65 roller rockers, the cam is a crower with over 520 lift. has a quadrajet 800 carb built by cliff ruggles have the ram air manifolds and 2 1/2 inch pipes into a set of goerlichs mufflers. the rear is a 9" with a detroit locker 350 gears. she runs mid 11s its a kick.

You guys keep this up...I may find myself wanting to be a goat herder again.
Michael..I heard the story before, but it touches me..you keeping your dad's '69. :)

Sweet... What did you do to suspension to get it lower? How was it as a driver afterwards? Could you have been comfortable with it as a DD? thx

How was Cliff to work with? He's got like a 1 year backlog for orders. You happy with his work? Also - what did you use for a fuel pump? I have 2 qjets I'm thinking about sending down - presently my car has Holley DP 750.

Reason I ask is that I had real problems using a brand new in box Edelbrock 1910 (Purchased from Greg Merrick in Longmont CO. the expensive one) and numerous fuel pumps (didn't want to regulate since I didn't want the extra plumbing and mess) - even at 6PSI output pressure it would puke out of the bowl vents and flood out the engine. I swapped for the DP 750 and no problems.

At the moment that Edelbrock is just a really expensive paperweight. Might send it down to him to figure it out.

Man, that is a really, really nice car.

And those Ponchos make big power w/ really big torque.
