Sounds like someone watched the endless Camaro resto-mods go across the block at BJ for that kind of coin and thought he could do the same with a GTO.

If he was going to build it to sell it, he would have been better off building it original.

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.
