well the gt is a lesser perforance version of the gtsport . i've had both one gt and two gtsports , and all in green , lol . even have those scoops . never mounted them .
Thanks!I... Love... This... Car...
Perfect colors. Crazy you let it sit for 2 years, I'm on month 2 of no driving mine and I'm going crazy!
I have a working original am radio as well, but there aren't any good am stations so we take a blue tooth speaker and listen to some jojo siwa while we cruise.
Thanks!
The reason it sat for 2 years was much more that having the ‘66 arrive. We were supporting my wife’s brother (emotionally and financially) through his stage 4 liver cancer, liver transplant and eventual death while at the same time my father was slowly dying of advanced Alzheimer’s.
They both passed within a year of each other so for that period my priority was dramatically shifted away from anything to do with the old cars during that time. The end came for my Father last Winter and then it was 9 months of trying to settle his estate amongst the madness of my wicked money grubbing sisters. I also lost my Job in September.
By late last October, everything had been resolved (including a new job) and that’s when I was finally able to get back to the ‘69.
Sometimes life just gets in the way and priorities have to change...for a while at least.
Thanks! Hopefully when I go back for the show this year I can do better than last time...even being nearly half the man I was then! LOL!You were pretty chubby with that 4th place win! Congrats on the win and the weight loss man! I wish I had half your willpower.
Thanks!

Thanks! I appreciate your comments. I am look forward to a nice long Season of getting back to enjoying her again. My 15 year old daughter is already bugging me to go cruising once the weather gets warm again...she loves this car and has been helping me work on it for the past 5 years.Sorry for all that happened and your losses. Strong man you are for staying strong through all of that.
I agree life gets in the way, i was simply trying to say that car is amazing and I'd be driving it way to much if I had the chance.
Excited to see more of this beauty.

She has made me swear to never sell it and eventually give it to her so she can share with her own children one day.
Daddy’s girl!

Very cool!That's amazing! My daughter is 5 and does the same thing. She says it's her purple car and when she gets older she will drive it really really fast. She is upset it's still not put back together.
