1970's Appx 1978-ish.

I Had Breakfast with Fred last Tuesday and we had a great Chuckle about this. It was a simpler time and many Risks to Life were taken by all.

His Mom Bought the Car in Feb 1966 & he still has it Today.

I thought it was Starlight Black or a Nightwatch Blue before, but I agree that Marina Turquoise is a gorgeous color.

Yes, He had it painted Black in the 80's then restored to its Orig hue.

His Family drove the Car to the PNW from Conn. in the late 60's as his father left Electric Boat for Puget sound Naval shipyard (*Work)

Fred Cruzed the Car & is thankful they saved the car all those years, Storage was hard on it but He got it Done.

Have a seat young man and tell me the GTO you would like to buy.

Thank you, I’m here to purchase a 1965 Teal Turquoise hardtop with parchment interior.
The powertrain needs to be Tri-Power, 4 spd. with a 3.55 posi. and Aluminum front drums.
Also Rally gauges, wood steering wheel, AM radio and power antenna.
A couple other items I would like is …. Rally Wheels and Splitters.

Do you have anything close to this car on the lot, or should I submit an order.

I have Cash $$$$.
