Cool, where did you find that?

Looks like an owner had a one off hood made. If there is enough demand it seems, more will be made for sale.

Looks real good!!! The owner is also going to make it functional. I don't know how, but that' what is said.

Also like the stripe down the side of the GTO.

Looking good! http://forums.performanceyears.com/g...on_biggrin.gif

This one has some serious meats on the car.

Getting closer...Nick, could you post a pic when the hood get's painted? http://forums.performanceyears.com/g...icon_smile.gif

What!! Is Mr. Goathead interested. http://forums.performanceyears.com/g...on_biggrin.gif The car is supposed to get the hood painted in the next few days. I want to also see it painted.

Nick, you know my only problem with rebadging the car that is is butt ugly, but improvments are helping. http://forums.performanceyears.com/g...s/icon_eek.gif

hoods OK, but it also needs the damn grill pushed back, that is the worst part of the car in my opinion, I just hate that, I really hope the 05's have the autoX front.

GTO_2004 03-25-2004 03:28 AM

Thats it , thats the ONE !!!! that hood looks BADASS !!!

and the rear shot, without the wing and nice rims, cool.

i don't like the pinstripe on the side from what i can see.

but i repeat the hood scoops kick ASS!!!

GTO_2004 03-25-2004 03:58 AM

ok this is what would do -

1. remove spoiler and put some nice rims.

2. hood as above with scoops

3. recessed grill

4. splitter pipes on both sides

what do you think ? http://forums.performanceyears.com/g.../icon_wink.gif

Need to see it painted but I like it, not sure about the wider center treatment... Every time I see new rims, I like the stock rims better, they just need to be 18's and chrome.

This takes it back to looking even more like a ricer . http://forums.performanceyears.com/g...n_rolleyes.gif

Hmmm... I disagree with that Goathead. I see nothing ricer about the car. The wheels? Those are some big tires out back and tall 27". I really think with the hood scoop on the hood and those wheels, plus no spoiler really would give it a more "retro" GTO look. Plus the removal of the rear spoiler makes the car look longer IMO.

Goathead 03-25-2004 11:28 AM

Nick, to me, no spoiler and that hugh rear end looks funky.... http://forums.performanceyears.com/g...n_rolleyes.gif

I love the 68-70 styled hood!! I would want the washboard section wider, but that's just my preference.
I wish Pontiac would just use the Monaro's 18" wheels (they look just like modern Rally II's- really a sweet looking rim), and it's rear spoiler. The spoiler is sooooo much cleaner looking than what Pontiac tacked on it.

At this point, gimme that hood, an Autocross Front end, ditch the 5.7 emblem on the trunk, put the GTO emblem on the RIGHT side of the trunk, M6, black interior, and Barbadous (I don't know the sp?? You know the color, light blue). I've been talking my wife's ear off on this. I realllllyyyy want a new GTO w/ this combo!!
