Some of you guys know that I have recently found my 1966 GTO Convertible and have pulled the trigger to re-purchase that great car. Consequently, my 1966 GTO Hardtop is now for sale.
The idea of building this car was first laid out on a napkin in a Pizza Joint in Bend, Oregon at Tiger Run by Pig, Kennedy and myself about a dozen years ago. It was built in my former shop in Redmond and Kennedy's shop by several club members including Reed Racing, Brad, Mark, Stefan amd several other Budweiser mechanics.
The car took on all challengers and beat them all at the legendary Thurday night tuning sessions at Tiger Run. I had the car in Canada for several years and had a lot of fun with it at Mission Raceways as well as on the street. I relocated to California last year.
Brad brought it down to California for me, so if you want it you will have to have it shipped back to the great Northwest.
It has been a fantastic car to own and race and drive.
Pictures are on my profile.
