It took me a while to get it. I can just imagine what they look like judging from his use of the dictionary/spelling guides.

That's an austrailian made tempest, they took the right hand drive to the extreme and swapped everything... It's actually called a TSEPMET.

Everything in all the pictures is backward, look real close. Alarm sign, Pontiac on the gas door, license plate numbers etc.

I missed that the first time! Should've just used rope.

I see tons of GTOs at shows using the old "gravity" method. I bolted mine down, then spun the car 2 days later. Good timing.

Interesting that the price in Chicago is over 10% higher than that in OH.

Lotta work, looks like a nice car, but way over the top for my tastes.

Ugh - the "more pictures" make it look way worse. Did that diamond plate ever look good? I just can't imagine someone saying "I want my dashboard to look like a '70s truck bumper." I notice he's coming down on the price.

At least he didn't kill a GTO.
If you ditched the gawdy hood & tunnel ram, it would be a decent looking ride. But then you'd have to spend untold $$$$ to quiet down that interior. Looks like a pimpified Peterbuilt.
