Palladium Silver 1969 GTO hardtop, right front view. Scott Mcgillivray switched out his white lettered tires for a set of Redline tires. He has also swapped out the stock chrome mirrors for some that match the car's paint and match the shape of the hood tach better.

Black 1969 GTO hardtop owned by Roger Kral from Harrison City, Pennsylvania. Roger had this to share, "I used this site to learn about the GTOs before I bought mine. I look at this site every day. I bought this GTO October, 2003. It is a 400 4-speed with 390 Posi 10-bolt rearend. When I bought the car it had a built up 326 in it. I found a 400 that was already done the way I wanted to do it and put it in to make the car correct. The 326 is for sale and was a fresh rebuild. The 4-speed and rearend had the correct VIN stamps but who knows what happend to the original motor. My 5 year son loves the GTO and so does my 6 month old daughter. I pull up to the cruises and to the most amazed looks when I pull out the stroller."

Vintage pictures of Rich Bialek's Dad's Verdoro Green 1969 GTO hardtop taken back in the 1970s when they lived in Chicago. That's Rich's Mom, his Dad, and his Mom's Aunt. It had a 400 engine with a 4 barrel carb. He bought the car back in 1971 at a local dealer and kept it until 1980 when he decided to get a new car. Rich and his brother always wished he would have kept the car longer. I like how the date shows up at the edge of the photo.

Another old Pontiac is parked across the street. Rich tells us that the hub caps didn't originally come with the car. This picture was actually taken to contest a parking violation. See that blank sign on the pole off to the right? It is a faded "No Parking" sign.

Another vintage shot of Rich's Dad's 1969 GTO. I like the funky dots on the garage doors, now long gone. That is the front fender of a 1975 Cutlass behind it. It was owned by Rich's uncle. It was his second car after selling his green with white vinyl top 1968 GTO which is posted in the 1968 Lot. You might see it there sometime, the one with hubcaps in front and Mickey Thompson wheels in the back.
