[QUOTE=SixSpeed454SS;723354]Actually Jim has Pontiac Ralley I wheels - the correct wheels for a '66 GTO. Mine are Ralley II’s, which Pontiac did not start using until '67. Jim’s car also has a Black Vynil top on it & Black pinstripes. Otherwise almost identical car. I saw him today & he told me someone was hanging out by his car waiting to talk to me. Sorry I was not there.

We went to a show in Greensburg this morning, a cruise in Monroeville, DQ cruise in Delmont & then stopped in at Lil Cruisers in Latrobe for some ice cream. I stopped at Keystone State Park for some pics…

Learn how to quote beotch.

Haven’t updated this thread in a while. Not much has happened, though. Mostly small detail stuff and working the bugs out of it. I got my wheels/tires installed finally. The car is pretty much done for now. I still need to get my A/C stuff installed, but not in too much of a hurry for it yet.
