I drove a friend to pick up his 66 GTO at a dealer in Crestview, Florida.

He had ordered the version with the four barrel but they got in one with the 3 two barrels and asked him if he wanted it.

The salesman took us for a test drive, he wouldn’t let the kid drive it until it was paid for. It was the hottest car I had ever been in and probably the second hottest I still have ever ridden in.

Back in 1968, my cousin had a '67 Camaro (which he still has after buying it back from the family of the guy who bought it and died in an auto accident with another vehicle) and another guy in town (little town in northern Michigan) had a GTO.

One night I was riding with my cousin and we spotted the GTO on the side of the country road since it had obviously had broken down. So what does my cousin do? He pops the hood of the GTO and steals the chrome cover off the air filter.......LOL!
