http://www.v8tvshow.com - This 1966 GTO has seen better days, and this intro video explains the project details from start to finish, including the crazy timeline. It kinda goes like this: Install GM 6.2 liter L92 V8 and 6-speed 6L80E tranmission, install Air Ride Technologies Street Challenge air suspension system, upgrade the wheels, tires, and brakes. Drive on Hot Rod Power Tour. Disassemble entire car, replace quarter panels, repair holes in trunk floor, window ledges, fenders, and doors, paint, reassemble, and take to SEMA 2008. Whew!
1966 GTO - Painting The 2-Tone V8TV
http://www.v8tvshow.com - The GTO came to us in primer, but we didn't want it to hit the streets on the Hot Rod Power Tour in boring light gray. So the decision was made to shoot the car with a fun 2-tone paint scheme of charcoal and Scarlet red in PPG basecoat to give the car an aggressive, satin look. Other materials used include lots of 3M tape and mask paper. Someday the car will receive some new bodywork and a more complete paint job, but this is the deal for now.
1966 GTO Blog #2 - Engine Removal V8TV
http://www.v8tvshow.com - Time for the original engine to come out of the car. After we pulled the front sheetmetal and yanked out the engine, we later were able to identify it as a date-code correct 1966 389, although we couldn't find a VIN stamp on the block. The car's VIN denotes it as a true GTO, however. This motor was reported to be a rebuilt unit. We didn't tear it down, but the multiple coats of spray paint indicate it has had a cosmetic, not mechanical, restoration.
1970 Pro-Touring Pontiac GTO V8TV
http://www.v8tvshow.com - Andrew Borodin's 1970 Pontiac GTO has been around the block a few times, and keeps picking up new tricks at every turn. This time, Andrew ditched the previous mill - a Big Block Chevy - in exchange for a new-tech, lightweight, all aluminum GM L92 6.2 liter V8. The GTO rolls on a trick - but simple - suspension that sticks in the turns and features Corvette brakes. After adding a few goodies like Corvette accessories and intake manifold, he jammed in an LS7 camshaft and now the Goat runs 12's, goes around corners like crazy, and still racks up 23 MPG. Watch the video to learn how.. and to see it on the drag strip and the autocross!
Desert Valley Junkyard Tour V8TV
http://www.v8tvshow.com - Junkyards or should we say, Old Parts Goldmines, are an essential resource when putting an old car back together, and there are some really great yards in the dry climates where the cars never rusted.

1966 Pontiac GTO Test run 15mph to 90mph
In this video I am trying to show how fun this car is to drive. I did a quick take off from about 15mph to 100mph. Although I was recording this by myself so I had to leave it in Drive and keep my eyes on the road. Would have been much better if I could have shifted through the gears.
