Great video!! I recognized that fella in yellow. Isn't that Gordon Laster? I've bracket raced with him lots over the years. Heck of a guy.

Love the car too. My dad had a black backhalved 70 GTO with a 535 IA2 he sold (gave away pretty much) about 2 years ago... to a guy on this board no-less.

Good job, nice car, enjoyed the vid.

I have the oddest question.....I'd like some info on the bus with "pop up" center section. Got any idea how I could find that?
