Went with my friend Abe to pick up a 2010 Frontier, the guy selling it had a 1962 Impala as a screen saver, so I showed him a picture of the 63. He took us out to his garage and this is what was in there when he opened the garage doors. Both mint and perfect, the GTO is a post car and he says has the original 389 and automatic. He also had a 409 on an engine stand out of a fire truck, he was told it had 17,000 miles on it.

Cool cars! I see the GTO has a couple of neat options. Power antenna but the really cool one, the most beautiful optional steering wheel ever made, the 64 US Pontiac model sport/wood wheel.

Unfortunately yes, it is an L79. Was a drag car from day 1. Went through many incarnations and was tubbed back in the eighties.

He sold a S10 to someone out west, maybe Winnipeg, 550hp, said it was a wild ride, street legal. He was born in the house next door, bought the house he lives in in 1971.
