Somebody please talk me out of the above!! LOL
Get her running, might just be what you need to keep going. A P-Dude motor to terrorize the ford and dodge boys will be worth the wait. Drop top GTO's are as good as it gets and yours is an A-1 example.

Yep, get it running and you'll change your mind. Either that or a bunch of us will paying you a visit to change your mind. LOL

BTW... there's only one thing better than a 67 droptop. And that's a 66 droptop.

Well I did get to hear her run and see her move under her own power last Saturday. I must say that P-Dude built 535 sounds pretty sweet through 3" exhaust!!!

That alone will keep you going. There's nothing like the sound of that Tiger under the hood purrring. And it's growl is pretty cool too.

Going over today to see the paint job and start bringing some of the left over parts home! Hopefully in the next week or two I'll bring the car home. As stated above once home the interior and glass still needs to be installed. I'll try to snap a few pictures and post for your enjoyment later today!! LOL
