So It Starts - 1970 GTO Resto Pics
Well, picked this up 3 yrs ago, knowing it was pieced together poorly. (even under that snazzy paint) Originally Baja Gold/Brown Top- Sandlewood Interior.
Had an idea since it was 100% NON original in the first place- to do it how I liked. And collected parts and pieces the past 3 years..... End Goal: Polar White, Black Interior (which came with the car) Poverty Caps (and maybe a back up set of rally 2's) With "GTO 455HO" Decals. Nothing overly flashy Went from a 400 - now a fresh 469. Replaced a Drivers side Repro fender with Original. Lower patch on Original Pass side fender. New front Valance. Original Spoiler replaced an aftermarket One. Great deal on an NOS rear bumper. Luckily, a local gentleman I have known for a long time...who usually does NHRA Pro Stock Cars, Hot Rods and the like took a shine to the car and is doing the bodywork and paint - I am going to tackle the interior. July 1 the body work got started and he's come a long way so far. My Goal- to have it 100% done by July 4 2015. And the first people to drive it when done will be my 80 Yr old dad and 77 yr Old mom who BOTH are Pontiac Lovers. Owning everything from Star Chiefs, Catalinas, Lemans, GTO's since 1955. May look like a mess to some- but it's looking good to me ! Enjoy... will add some more pics.. |
