Jennifer Murphy owns this Candyapple Brandywine 1966 GTO hardtop. Jennifer tells us more, "It was originally a Candlelite Cream, Tri-Power, 4-speed car. It was repainted back in the 70's in a Candyapple Brandywine with custom scallops. The car was an ISCA show car through the 1970's. A mild 400 resides in the engine bay now along with the 4-speed and a 4.11 12-bolt. The car is PHS documented. I bought the car two years ago and am bringing it back to it's glory years (ie. 70's style custom paint, etc.). It still runs great. I cruise it during the week and race it on weekends." CLICK->

Red 1966 GTO hardtop owned by Ben Schwipps from Osgood, Indiana. Ben tells us how he got it, "I bought this car from a friend of mine who decided he didn't want to take on a project (he wanted to buy one done instead). I gladly bought this car for $2500 in December of '04, and just got it home to my garage where as you can see it awaits a restoration. The car was originally Nightwatch Blue with a Parchment interior. This car was found under an army tarp in a closed up automotive garage. The owner died many years ago, and the son covered it up hoping to get to it someday." CLICK->
Another shot of Ben's project 1966 GTO. Ben tells us about his plan, "Currently, the interior is out of the car, and there is no motor or transmission in it. Where once sat a 389 4-bbl 3-speed drivetrain, a very healthy 400 4-speed will reside. It came with a tri-power setup, but one for a 65. Since it wasn't original to the car, it will not be installed. This car is a couple of days away from being stripped to the shell and taken to a sandblaster for a complete stripping. All rust will be dealt with accordingly and new metal installed. My goal is for completion next summer (May '06)." CLICK->
