well the car did not make it to SEMA this year.:(

Things were getting rushed and being compromised.

I will be at SEMA 2009 with this damn car I promise you that.
we have been working on the car at a slower rate now and I should be driving it around april of this year. I will keep you guys posted on the rest of the build and taking plenty of pics with my new Olympus camera.

BTW the car is going House of color BLACK.


Also were Can I get a BILLET SPECIALTIES Air conditioning compressor Manifold?

If you look closely, the march serpentine kit was block sanded and brushed. This sounds, but it was a total of 40 hours of work to get it just right. I brushed all the brackets, ac compressor, alternator, pulley covers, breather tanks, catch cans, and my own billet wire separators . lots of random detail work has been done and i have a little more to go. I still have to make the air cleaners and brush them. I am going with a counter sunk screw on the top instead of a wingnut.

I will have pictures of the GTO in black tomorro 8/7/09 which is one of the most exciting times of my life again and financially lowest too.

House of color BC-25 black with PPG DCU 2055 Clear. The car will not has not been sanded or rubbed, as of these photos.

I hope this excites some because my post never do.

Love the seats.

The car seems to be getting closer and closer. Fun isn't it.:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

It's coming along real nice Joe. Love the gauge cluster, Are they Classic Instruments?

Every things looking good Joe.

Man I love those GTO's. Congratulations, lookin' good.

who's in the red dress ;) haha

that looks awesome man, I can't wait till I can be at that point in my build.

Wishing for a little more wind huh:unibrow:


The car looks killer. Any 64-67 Abody convertible is my favorite group of cars ever built. Black is my favorite color. If you will change interior to red for me I will PM you the address to have it shipped to. You will take a check right :D

Keep up the great work.

Man I was thinking the same thing...lol I kept looking in all the pics for more reflections!

Oh BTW the car looks incredible also!!!! Love the look!

The Paint looks great. Its going to look awesome all together..

Really looks nice! Where at SEMA can we see it? Best of luck with making the show! Can't wait to check it out! :thumbsup:

where did u get it painted at?

Looking good.
Keep us posted.:cheers:

SEMA here we come, is any one else going?

Donations to get to sema are accepted. LOL jk

I sold my gto Post coupe
trying to sell my 1967 honda 305 scrambler
and my 12 second lt1 powered XJ12 jaguar

All this to get this car done, If only all the members on lateral-g knew the Biograpy on this car it would bring tears too some eyes.
Its been a painful 3 and 1/2 year long battle.

I am contemplating sleeping in my trailer and using someones shower at SEMA.

Business has been slow and I am sick of working out of my garage. I am going in with a buddy and were going to start a shop here in the east bay area. I am going to work 14 hour days to get this shop going and car done for the SEMA show wish me luck everyone, because god knows I'm gonna need it.

im still up! Iso, i just finished work and its 3:30 in the morning.
I am going to wake up at 900 tomorrow and get some photos for you guys to look at, this car has to be at sema in three weeks and im hoping we make it.


mark over at bent thanks for all the fittings, the car looks pro.

I can't wait to see the pictures.

Yeah!!! Where's the pics?

the whole front clip needs to be adjusted, but where doing that tomorrow.

Great project and I like your mods, adding the badd factor to an already cool '65 Goat.

I remember a friends' much older brother bringing one home from the dealer in the fall of '64. He spun it out on a turn right in front of us on a damp day. Been a fav of mine since.

Congrats on all accomplished so far. :thumbsup:

Joe, the car looks great ! did you get the head lights?

wow i guess if i had a F body people would care about this thing.

As I have said before kick ass build. I love everything about it. Can't wait to see done pics.

Joe, a lot of time put into your car and it shows. Very nice build, as I've said before, GTO's are my favorites especially the 64 and 65's. The wheels you had made and showed at the sema dinner party last year are a great look on the car. Keep up the good work and keep the pictures coming.
Congratulations

The car is looking fantastic! Keep it up, Joe!

Joe, the car looks great. Did you get the front bumper back yet? I think it was shiped last Thursday.

Joe... dont forget to come up for air once in a while !
Looks good. :thumbsup:

Car looks awesome!! :thumbsup:
