New Ride:
 

Its been a while so I thought I'd share a little of my story.

The car started its life as a zone car down by Milwaukee. Wilde Pontiac which had many cool cars go through their show room.
It was sold and used for a few years before being traded in at a Buick dealership in Green Bay (I have not learned the name of that owner or how the car was used).That is where Mikes soon to be father-in-law worked and new it was something rare. He called Mike and told him to get down to the dealership and buy this car.
The car was used as a family cruiser from grocery runs to cruise nights. They really only used the car for a five years before Mike parking it up at their cabin in the north woods. That is where it sat for 43 years until I found it.
Never thought Id be an A-body owner but finding a rare ride only a few miles away from my house was like it was destiny. Let alone becoming great friends with Mike and his family.

Im trying to learn this new model and collect some parts to get her back on the road. Bare with me please since these A-bodies are nothing like an F-Body.
Will post some more pictures and phs soon. For now here is the Fisher Tag and couple before and after interior shots. Cheers

NICE!

Column shift automatic, cool.
Are the side pipes hooked to headers?


:)

Thanks, no headers. Side pipes are staying and so is the trailer hitch. Owner doesnt remember what he used the trailer hitch for but I think its kinda cool.

Congratulations!

Cool car - Pontiac GTO.
Nice story - In your neck-of-the-woods.
Have fun - because it’s a GTO with character.

Very Nice!

You might want to look at the trailer hitch as the one on my car had Grand Prix on it behind where the ball mounts. I took it off and sold it .

Love it...congrats!

I really like that car. Color(s). Vert. I also like your side pipe decision. Please post pics regularly!

Brewster, love the limelight green ,great car.
Post the PHS and any other docs you may have.
Thanks

Here are a few more pictures. The interior cleaned up very nice including carpet.

very nice Brewster. did the guy you got it from know what he had?

Oh yes and he really didnt want to let her go either. It was part of their family and still kinda is in my book. Im going to be sharing the build and fun times with Mike who has turned out to be a great friend.

Very cool, Nice score!

I really like the side pipes. did he have some big meats on it at one time? unusual to see the side pipes without some sort of mags and jacked up rear. I always wanted to put a set of hooker showtubes on my trans am but just didn't have the money to do it back in the 70's.

The car was stored on blocks and there were only rally II's under the it. Mike told me he had Craiger's on it back in the day with bigger tires in the rear. I havent found any signs of a lift kit and appears to retain its stock suspension.
I do have the chrome side pipe protectors which need to be put back on.

Does this car still retain it's original paint, interior and top?

Thanks for posting PHS, cool that it a factory hood tach.

The interior and top are original. Unfortunately the top had gotten cut or car broken into before storage but nothing was taken. I will have to replace the top or have one ugly patch made.
Not sure on the paint 100% but looks like some has been repainted for sure. Need to have my paint guy review that since I dont have a good eye for that stuff. Age...

I’m with the others. Love this car and the story. The side pipes and patina are badass. Great find Brew. Congrats.

Thanks Bob, Hope you had a good birthday all weekend long.

Make it safe to drive and leave it just as it is!!!!!! That's what I would do, only org once!

Nice find!!
