[QUOTE=marxjunk;4042434]I like this pic..black and white makes it cool..post car..notice the lanyards look like they go between the hood and header...not sure about that....could be a tribute..look how high the 400 embs are..who knows....look at the w/o moldings too..although it breaks the car up..i see factory literature with the lanyard between too..maybe my car is wrong.

marxjunk,
The top black and white pic is a factory photo. Don't really know why they have the lanyard going between the hood and header. Maybe that photo is originally of a Tempest and they air brushed in the GT-37 hood pins, lanyard, 400 emblems, etc. John Sawruck once did a presentation at one of the POCI conventions that I attended and he showed pictures of a gold '71 GT-37 in which one half of the car was a T-37 and the other half was a GT-37. They did all kinds of stuff to get photos out.

I've attached a pic of an original owner '70 GT-37 that I took at one our local shows. This car has the lanyards going thru the grill.

UPC-WU2,
You might want to add these two pics of this white '70 GT-37 to your wonderful website. I'm hoping to run into to the owner of this car again and get some better pictures.
