Pro Touring GTO '66 (story)

[GvEman]

Well many years ago I bought an old GTO from an old man who had own it sins it was new. And after al those years with rain and snow it had been a wrack. But I did not have the time and money to recondition it. So it has been in my garage for several years.
For seven or eight mounts ago I was talking to my friend about cars and then this idea popped up in my head.
A Pro Touring GTO with black and red paint and huge wheels.
So I went to the bank and borrowed money so I could start recondition it, and after six months I have come as far as this. The painter ad I decided that I would do the work between paint and clearcoat so that’s what I am doing at the moment. The wheels belongs to my friend, and I am going to order a set of them in a while.

Sorry for the bad pictures.. I have no good light in my garage.
