This is a Pontiac enthusiast's ground-up vision of what a modern,
Pro-Touring GTO should have been. Reliable enough to be driven on a
daily basis, right at home in a car show, or a beast on a track.
With just 1,000 test miles on the build, this Goat is raring to go.
Starting with a low-mileage, rust free California car, the frame
was inspected and modified to allow low mounting of A/C compressor
and four wheel coil over suspension. The frame was then
continuously seam welded, sandblasted, epoxy primed, and painted
gloss black. Rust proofing was also sprayed inside of frame. Power
is provided by an LS1 with stage 2 heads, Comp cam, and Kooks
stainless long tube headers all backed by a Tremec 6 speed manual
transmission and 12 bolt posi-traction rear with 3:73 gears putting
well over 400 horse power to the wheels. Special care was taken to
conceal wiring and hoses in the engine bay, the firewall was
smoothed and painted gloss black, as were the inner fenders and
radiator support. Front suspension includes power rack and pinion
steering, tubular control arms, 2" dropped spindles Viking double
adjustable coilovers, and 1.25" stabilizer bar. Rear has double
adjustable coil-overs, adjustable boxed control arms, 1" stabilizer
bar, and Edelbrock chassis bracing. Brakes are Wilwood 4-wheel disk
with drilled and slotted rotors. This GTO is equipped with digital
dash, tilt and locking steering column, Mark 4 A/C, power windows,
power locks, keyless entry, and Trans- Am power seats (upholstered
in 65 pattern). Convertible top has tempered glass rear window, and
all mechanisms and hoses are new. Computer, relays and battery are
mounted in trunk behind a upholstered and embroidered panel. The
exterior paint is Mercedes silver, and really is show quality. All
work was professionally performed, and all the modifications
resulted in a great handling car with near perfect 50/50 weight
distribution that is powerful and extremely reliable. Drive it,
autocross it, or show it; this car is comfortable in any setting.
