I've been a member for a while, but have only visited the site a few times. Now I have a new project & I have found myself browsing the Pro Touring forums. I have seen a few nice rides in the projects portion of the site, as well as some nice rides throughout the rest of the site.

My new project is a 1966 GTO. I plan on doing a "Pro Resto" style restoration on the car. I want to keep the car basically stock appearing with the exception of ride height & 17" or 18" wheels. The car is in excellent condition, but needs alot of work. I plan on driving it this summer (2007), but I do not plan on "finishing" the car immediately. I want to enjoy it for a summer or two, since financial reasons will keep me from completely finishing it in a few months.
You can see more about the car here: www.akvalley.net/~ss/1966GTO.html

My other ride is a 1990 Chevy 454SS truck that I have had since 1991. I bought it completely stock, and have done 90% of the work myself. It has a 505 hp EFI'd 461ci BBC with a T56 6speed. The truck is a blast to drive. I did Hot Rod's Power Tour 2002, & I plan on doing the 2997 Power Tour with it, too.





That's my story...

Welcome Tod,
That truck is awesome! Looks like it can really haul the mail.
Good luck with your GTO project!

Good luck with the GTO. That truck looks perfect.

Welcome to the site, Tod. That's a great looking truck you've got there.

Thanks guys. It may take a few years, but I'm hoping the GTO will look even better.
