Default 65 Gto
Barn finds still exist. This guy found this 65 that has been sitting in a storage unit for past 10 years. It's a California black plate car. Best part it hasn't been messed with and all original parts are still on the car. It's a 389 4 barrel 4 speed car.
I pulled the engine for the guy. He is having paul carter rebuild it.

Is it a low option car? It does not have the day-night mirror. It still has the Fremont wiper arms on it. What color interior? I have the paint formula for the lacquer, they might still sell it in Phoenix.

Once that lacquer comes off then you know it has been messed with.
