I am the original owner of my '69 Pontiac GTO HT. It was our daily grocery getter/street fun car for seven wonderful years.
Then came the gas crisis, and there went the goat. Fortunately the car stayed in the area and after eleven long years I received a phone call. I managed to bring our still original goat back home at a bit more than I paid for it new. Since then, it has received a complete frame off by "Kimberly Restorations," Bridport, VT. Yours truly tackling the rolling chassis and "Rock and Roll Engineering" completing a not so stock engine.

     Over the years this car has won numerous first and second place awards. But there are a few that I am most proud of; (1997 Adirondack Nationals - 1st Place Senior Division Winner), (1998 Pontiac/Oakland National Convention - Concourse deElegance 400x400 pts.), (1999 GTOAA National Convention - Gold Level Winner), (2000 Hemmings Muscle Car Calendar), (2001 Rhinebeck - Contemporary Classic Best of Show). Currently I have over 8000 miles on the resto. which never is trailered.
