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!

Here's a comment from a recent visitor...
Says Tom Harold (harold2.@iquest.net) - "This is the ONLY place to go for great GTO content! (And it's cool that it's based in my home state of Indiana. "There's more than corn" and all that stuff.)"
