Saw the car last night, very clean and liked the headlights! Nice to finally get a face to the name as I am a very forgetful person with names.

The car looks nice. Is that a Pontiac GTO in the garage?

Thanks! It's really starting to actually look nice in my eyes.

Yes, that is a GTO! It's a 1970 GTO base model, 400 with a 3 speed auto on the floor. My mom bought it brand new :) It has girl options like: vanity mirror, rear speaker, etc lol. We have all documents for it, like the window sticker, mainteance stuff records, and it sits in our garage. It has a small transmission leak, hence why it isn't driven. Well, I drove it three times in the last 8 years just around the block about 2 months ago.

I deleted cruise control today with a shiney brand new non-turbo non-cruise throttle cable. I have to say this is one of the most suprising mods I have done. The car feels sooo much more responsive, and the pedal just seems more sensative, and reactive. I guess 16 year old cables might stretch a little, plus that stupid linkage the cruise uses probably doesn't help crisp response. So a combo of brand new cable and no linkage has surprisingly made the car feel a heck of a lot better to drive!! I was surprised!
