NEW POST Here is Jeff Stalheim (left) and his long time friend Scott on the right with his red 1972 GTO. Their friend Richard had this story to share, "Jeff lives up north in Wisconsin and bought his LeMans in 2007. It has the factory Endura option, so it has the look of a GTO. Jeff started out with a rather mundane car and has really upgraded it over the last couple of years. Scott's Body Shop in Strum laid down a great looking paint job. Jeff has also added the correct GTO emblem/stickers and Rally stripes. While he was fixing up the LeMans, Jeff never told me he had a
plan. It goes back to his high school years in Taylor Wisconsin. Jeff's friend Scott bought a 1972 GTO in 1979. It came equipped with a 400
engine, four speed transmission, hood tach, and the optional D90 Rally
Stripes down the sides. Jeff always loved the looks of that car. In 1981 Scott graduated Taylor High and moved to southern Wisconsin. Through the years Jeff would keep in touch with Scott, via Scott's father, who still lives in Taylor. So Scott knew of Jeff's latest project. Fast forward to 2009 and Jeff gets a call. It's Scott. They both know that the Hot Rod Power Tour is going through southern Wisconsin and figure it's time to get together. Scott still owns his old high school 72 GTO. He's kept it all these years. They traveled from Madison to Racine, where these pictures were taken. It's the first time since 1981 that Jeff has seen Scott's GTO. There are a few differences, Jeff's car has Cragar wheels, a 70-72 GTO spoiler and an automatic transmission. Scott's car has a hood tach, a 69 GTO spoiler, and Pontiac Rally ll wheels. But they were close enough to turn heads on the Power Tour. Checking out these photos from Jeff really tied together for me what he's been trying to accomplish with
this car."CLICK->

Photo of Darren Schmitt 1972 LeMans GT back in 1995 when he got it. He paid $450 for it. Darren added the GTO emblems. Darren tells us more, "It had the 350 2bbl, 3-speed stick, custom sport steering wheel, AM radio, Endura front end, and GT package (14x6 Rally wheels, sport mirrors, stripe). The custom paint job was done before I bought it and power steering was added as well sometime earlier."CLICK->
