White 1966 4-door Tempest hardtop, left rear view. These pictures must have been taken while Ken and Greg were in Arizona back in 1988. Its a hardtop because there is no post between the front and rear door windows. When both windows are rolled down, it has one big opening. CLICK->
White 1966 4-door Tempest, left front view. The Tempest had a vinyl body side moulding runing down the length of the car, but up real high. It must have been more of a decoration, as they'd be too high to protect the car from parking lot door dings. CLICK->

Barrier Blue 1966 GTO hardtop that was owned by Brian Catania before he restored it. Brian comments, "I bought this 1966 PHS documented GTO off eBay from a guy in Kansas for $4000 at the end of Feb '04. I restored it and sold it June 2nd of this year (2004). The car was not running and had a non original 400 engine date coded 1968. You can see from the before photos it was pretty rough, but I got to work and brought it back close to original. I put in a correct manifold, carb, and air cleaner and when we fired it up, it looked to be the first time running on the new rebuild. The car originally had a four speed, but previous owner had switched it out for a three speed with stall converter. It looks like the funds ran out on making this a drag car." CLICK->
