About

Purchased on August 24, 2008; I drove this well-executed street rod from just southeast of Wichita, KS to Dallas, TX without incident.

Originally a in-line six cylinder, this all steel (except the running boards) Pontiac has been modified to take advantage of modern technology and conveniences. It has been painted a 1970 GTO color (Orbit Orange) and is very close to the way I would have built a street rod from scratch had I been given the opportunity to do so.
