A Burgundy 1964 GTO hardtop which was entered in Concours judging. Taken by Paul Sanders. The driver's door had small dent and scratch. Despite this, the owner still found a way to be funny and the paper taped below the scratch read, 'Things to do: Add padding to inside of trailer fender!' CLICK->
Lowered Brazen Orange 2964 Tempest Sport Coupe had a 455 and an air bag suspension. Brazen Orange is a factory paint color for the 2006 GTO. The owner had lots of progress pictures until it was finally completed. The car was off the frame and had new trunk floors and floor pans installed. Photo by Paul Sanders. CLICK->

A young lady checks out the restoration photos on display with this light blue 1965 GTO hardtop. Steve Ten Eyck gives us his impression of the Nats: "The last I heard there were 350 pre-registered and the swap turned out great. They sold all the available spots. I did not go [to the races], but the drag races were great too from what I hear from a guy that won his bracket. He's the one that bought 2 of the 4 Muncies I sold (for backups for his 2 race cars). I was just too involved in my swap space to get around much. I did take some amateur photos, but it was done the morning after a terrible storm went through and many of the cars were still safely tucked in their trailers." Photo by Todd Smith. CLICK->
Iris Mist 1965 GTO hardtop with a Ram Air Tri-Power engine under the hood. Awesome. Hey that's Craig George's Indiana car on the left. You might remember at the '06 Nats his Turquoise car's interior was under construction in the main parking lot. I know that's the one because we put the seats in wrong. Yeah, the bench is in the front and the buckets are in the rear! Haaa, not really. Check Craig's wheels. Craig likes the look of the Rally 2 wheels without trim rings. Photo by Todd Smith.
