Default GTOAA review...is this funny or sad??

Can't seem to decide, you be the Judge (pun intended). Love the reaction of the '69 convertible owner...

Embarrassing. She should have enlisted somebody to be her "guide". She did manage to correctly identify "4-speed" and "convertible", so she's got that going for her.

Eh, it's just someone out having fun. Doesn't bother me.

Don’t be too hard on her. Never seen a 69 ‘GTO’ without the quarter panel side marker lamps. One of the coolest distinguishing features, IMO.

The only sad thing was I found myself looking for the AARP booth in the background

First off the SVGTO show is fantastic! I have met Pam at a couple of shows. I know she has filmed the BPOC in West Chester as well. She is a great person with a love for cars. Her descriptions may not be spot on but she goes to as many shows as she can. She has some kind of web site/news letter that promotes them. I dont think I have ever seen one of her videos though as the only time I see utube is when someone on a forum posts a link.

I will add the green 69? Gto which she pointed out the correct quarter panel lights belongs to someone that peruses this forum once in awhile and is a friend of mine. It is an absolutely stunning car!!

I like looking at the cars, but found her difficult to listen to, so I turned off the volume and just watched for a while.

I guess I figured the person filming was from either from the sponsor chapter or a Pontiac fanatic, given then were attending a GTOAA event.

Was a little surprised about the inaccuracies (e.g., mistaking a '69 for a '67) and some comments (e.g., '70 original interior as 'fantastic', when a bit of a mess).
