Congratulations, stunning car with performance to match.
I saw the thread here where your son Formula Jones was doing the paint job, he definitely does fine work. Love your original owner 571-inch GTO!

It's refreshing to see that bodystyle in something other than ORANGE..

100% best car there. Would you mind elaborating on the tire and rim size combo? front and back looks perfect. Is that a L88 air filtration system or V setup? Thank you in advance.
P.S. i’d be afraid to park your beauty next to the car with the door that looks like it’s just about to fall off. |

That's a great car and deserves all the praise. I too followed your son's posts on the work he did to it. Really impressive to me was this cold air induction setup he designed and built for it. Congratulations!

Ram Air is an L88 corvette air box my son an I cut and modified to fit what we wanted to do (his idea) and fiberglass it to a Glasstek fiberglass hood that is raised 2" in the center for more clearance and we used a corvette 2" drop base on the EFI Holley super sniper. Turned out real good and works perfect. Last edited by GTO JONES; 04-21-2021 at 07:30 PM. |

I'm glad you asked about the L88 similarity, because I wondered the same thing when I saw the drop base. GTO Jones, you son is a craftsman. The car looks excellent! Congratulations on owning such a fine car, and for having a fine and talented son who built it for you. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
