Harold McCarty got tired of hitting deer with this car, so he added some HUGE driving lights to the front. Harold says: "This car is a great driver, 120,000+ miles when I parked it. Speedometer cable was broken when I got it. No rips in the interior. Snagged two deer with it though". The car has black bucket seats with a console, tach, E.T. wheels, and Corvette manual steering box. In case you're wondering, those lights are 1,000,000 candle power!

Interior Color: black
Owner: Harold McCarty ( )

Bill Waller: Very cool. How much is 1,000,000 candle power? I mean, how far can you see? etc.
y'uncle Harold: I ain't got a clue no more..but it's as many as you could get for 50 / 60 bucks each in 1974.
y'uncle Harold: Actually they were 500,000 candle power each. One was fluted so the light was spread horizontally. The other lens was a pencil beam. It was pretty bright, but hitting something with pin point accuracy is difficult at speed unless brightly colored. Ya know, this green GTO looked much better before jpg compressed to black.
