White Pearl 1969 LeMans convertible owned by Gary Ames from Malden, Massachusetts. Gary tells us, "I purchased car in 1993, drove as-is for a couple of years, put under construction for 8 years, and finished it in 2006. It now has a rebuilt 350, 4bbl, HEI ignition, high torque starter, sport mirrors, 69 Judge stripe, original parchment seats from a parts car, and a 69 GTO hood."CLICK->

Here is Gary Sawyer in his green 1969 GTO convertible. Gary purchased the car in rough shape back in 2001. Options include: automatic transmission, air conditioning, power steering, power brakes, hideaway headlights, console, bucket seats, 3.23 Saf-T-Track rear, AM/FM radio with rear speaker and tinted glass. It may look rough - but it runs! Ahh, and someone painted it "PaintSale Green"! As a little kid, I lived in a house that was painted dark "PaintSale Green". Then as a teenager, I constructed a clubhouse on the property. We went to the local paint store to get some paint to paint my new clubhouse. Guess what shade I got? They had gallons of the same shade as my house in the "Clearance" section for ONE dollar a gallon. The clubhouse was painted very cheaply the exact same shade as my house - dark "PaintSale Green". Fuh real! CLICK-> 
Nice flag. Gary starts the restoration by stripping the paint to see what he has to work with. The back quarterpanel is going to be the biggest problem. There might be more filler than metal present there? Gary adds, "The car is currently undergoing a full frame-on restoration. The interior and top were shot and will be replaced with a white top and complete parchment interior. When the body work is completed, the car will receive a rear spoiler and hood tach and will be painted Carousel Red."CLICK-> 
It is easy to work in the engine compartment when the hood is removed.CLICK-> 
Ahh! Some creative patching is in progress. The inside of the trunk lid is already sprayed the new color, Carousel Red.CLICK->
