New guy to the PY forum. Got directed here by gtojohn while I was at his shop, picking his brain!

My car is a 1972 GTO. Originally a 400, but had a '74 455 in it when I bought it in July. Also has a TH350 3 speed with a 4.10 12 bolt posi rear end. (Looking to swap in an overdrive this winter). The color of my car is original and pretty unique. It was special ordered so the trim tag shows a couple dashes for the paint code. I've been searching for the actual color and the closes GM color I have found is a Kimberly Blue I found in a Pontiac color palette from 1962. I don't know what it is exactly, but I like it because it's different.

Happy to join another GTO community. I'm always researching something to death, so now I've found more resources.

Here's a little movie trailer I put together with video of my car.
