Matador Red 1969 GTO hardtop owned by Shayne Baldwin from Lincoln, Nebraska. Shayne had this to share, "I have owned this GTO for over 20 years. It has the stock 400, automatic, A/C, power steering, and NO power brakes. My wife drove it to work in the summer and spring. It stays cozy in the garage now. It only comes out once in a
while. When we saved it from the junk yard, the spare was the Red-Line."CLICK->

Midnight Green 1969 GTO hardtop owned by Gunnar Olafsson from Mosfellsbaer, Iceland! Gunnar tells us about his purchase, "After almost 30 years of dreaming, I finaly own it. It has a Ram Air III 'NOM' Engine 9790071 1968 block, 1978 6X-4 Heads, Edelbrock Torker II manifold, and B&M shifter. I purchased this GTO last autumn from a gentleman in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania."CLICK->

Jonathan Adams is restoring his 1969 GTO hardtop. Jonathan tells us, "I started the frame-off in April of '05. I am changing the color to a 69 maroon. All numbers match, everything is original, and I am restoring it to look like it is on a 69 showroom floor. Every detail will be back to original with the exception of the exhaust and the wheels. I don't like the Rally wheels. This is a two-barrel with interesting options such as: front bench seat, auto on the column, air, 8-track, AM/RM, rear defogger, and hideaways. While some poke fun and call it 'grandma's car', this is one of only 1,246 made in '69. While all of you 4-bbl 4-speed guys - there were over 22,000 made. 4-bbl autos had over 32,000 made. EAT YOUR HEART OUT CLASSIC COLLECTORS! Oh yeah - thanks, grandma!"CLICK-> 
The body is stripped of its Verdoro Green paint.CLICK->
