Default Rare Sighting During Morning Commute

Hello all.....just wanted to share a rare sighting with the rest of you. On the way to work, in North Fresno, CA this morning at around 7:30 am, I sighted a very clean, original looking Regimental Red '67 GTO driving on Bullard Ave. eastbound. Car was very clean looking, but dirty from our recent weather. Driver didn't notice me, as I was in my '83 Toyota pickup heading the other way. First time I've seen another '67 GTO on the road (besides mine) on the way to work since 1986. These cars sure ain't Mustangs or Camaros!!

There's a guy in the Minneapolis area who commutes in a '68 GTO, at least during the summer months. I see him fairly regularly during my commute. It appears to be an original car with some rust here and there, but still in pretty decent shape. It does stand out, in a crowd of silver and grey Camrys.

I thought this rare sighting was going to be someone using their turn signal!

I had to stop in the middle of down town yesterday to let four wild Turkeys cross the road. ��
