Red 1972 LeMans hardtop with a GTO front end owned by Mitchell Etter from East Quogue, New York. He purchased it for $50. Mitchell tells us, "I've had this car since 1985. Two years ago I put it back on the road for use after working on it for nearly four years. I nearly rebuilt the whole damn thing. It's in damn good shape and I don't expect it to sell cheap. Never!"CLICK->

NEW POST Tracy's Sapphire Trance blue 1972 GTO at a car show. It was finished in time for a couple legs of the Hot Rod Power Tour. Tracy adds, "I had this girl since I was 16 (1996) and was an everyday driver till I was 21. It spent the next few year years in storage till I started the frame off. I started by replacing the rusted frame with a overkill vert frame just to give the competition a little advantage. I replaced both 1/4s, full trunk, and inner and outer wheel wells. I'm on my 4th motor, 3rd rear end, and 3rd transmission. I'd like to thank the following for motor and head work Jim at MBJ in Granite City Ilinois, body by Charlie at Lowder Auto Owensville Missouri. The rest was done with the help of cold Budweiser. See you in my rear view some time soon." Here are some specs. Engine: 400 block w/Eagle stroker kit= 462, 6x-4 heads milled to 94cc, Custom Butler hyd roller cam, and Performer RPM Mighty Demon 850. Trans: Rebuilt TCI Street fighter TH400. Rear End: 12 bolt from a 66
Chevelle w/373 gears. Interior: Low back white buckets and all Phantom
Autometer gauges. Wheels: Centerline Convo Pro wheels with MT drag
