Have you considered just the 8 lug "look"? Using the 8 lugs to cover either regular drum or disc brakes. You would have to have your axles and drums redrilled to 5 on 5 but that wouldn't be hard.

That is the 2nd cheapest 1968-9 GTO on ebay. It may not be a great car but it is in the ball park for cars that are for sale out there. They are all over priced as far as I'm concerned.

You can't buy any GTO in half way decent condition for $20K. If it is what you want buy it as long as it's reasonably solid.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
