Default Bought Me A 66 GTO Today

Search is over. Flew to Chicago and made a deal on a ‘66. Currently painted Nightwatch Blue. Running the original block and heads, which were rebuilt, and a little more cam added. Topped with a ‘66 tripower. Motor sounds good, and runs strong. Ralley dash, 4 spd, console, non ac car. Trans rebuilt, centerforce clutch, quicker ratio power steering, disc brakes up front. The original 3:55 rear was all refurbished and new bushings, but he sourced a 2:93 rear and installed that. 3:55 comes with car. Also, frame was removed, cleaned, painted, and all new suspension and bushings. Now, to get it home.

There is one issue that I need to dig into though. The passenger door will not open by the exterior handle. Inner handle works fine.
