1969 GTO convertible from Jeff Homewood.It is in the process of being restored to original Crystal Turquoise with white top and Parchment interior. Also: factory 4 speed, 3:55 Safe-T-Track, non-air, WT engine, etc. Jeff has owned the car from High school through college and they both survived. Jeff says he got 13 tickets in the first 7 years. When he bought it in 1981, it was Carousel Red with white interior. Maybe that was because he lived in
Knoxville, Tenn - Home of the Big Orange & White Tennessee Volunteers. He now lives way up in New Hampshire and is planning to show the car in the New England Area when finished. Jeff says he'll send in a copy of his first ticket since resto. His wife thinks he'll have one within the first week! Jeff says the NH & MA State Troopers aren't as forgiving as the TN boys!
