Default Re: Your new musclecar

I Ioved Pontiacs and drooled over GTO's when they came out. I never had the money in those days but recall going to a dealer that I wound up working at years later as a "flatrater" and negotiated for a new '66 GTO that sat on the showroom floor. It was red with a vinyl top and was a Tri-Power 4-speed....price was $2950. I begged my father to co-sign a loan for that car but he said no and that was the right decision since I was just a dumb kid at the time. I priced many new cars and worked on and drove some that would be worth a fortune today from Z-28's to a 396/375 Camaro, a 289/271 Mustang GT and many GTO's and included a Yenko Deuce and Boss 302 Mustang........I did buy a real nice used '67 GTO that I wish I owned today as it had many options and was a great driver for my then wife.......I sold it to a NY Yankee's picther......Damn I wish I had that car today!
