My Dad and I built a 1964.5 tri-power GTO in 1980. Had it for 3 weeks after i turned 16. Raced a 69' Camaro and my law enforcement Father heard about it and sold..........numbers matching first year GTO...what would that car be worth now? Drove a 77' Thunderbird after that witha 351 Windsor...just not the same.
