    Happy Birthday Jon! I’m so glad I found your channel. It’s inspiring this 68 yr old guy to tear into my ‘69 bird with a solid plan.

    Jon: beautiful job! I appreciate you encouraging others to save an otherwise rough car. Several people told me to scrap my 64 GTO or use it as a donor car.. I refused and now am doing a restoration that is coming together. The Cameo Ivory looks great!

    Gotta laugh, but Like your wife ! Not letting you sell the GTO. Sold my 69 T/A unexpectedly this past Feb. Two very well known Pontiac gurus that knew I had it both had a guy looking for one. So now restoring a lucerne blue 71 with white deluxe interior that I bought from one of the Pontiac guys and wife is not at all happy about it ! Guess because I'm 67 and retired i'm to old to still be playing with cars, LOL

      Wash with soap and water then a liberal coating of armor all or wd-40 seems to help for a good while. My horn button on my bird every three years gets really tacky and this has worked for me.

      @@VinylVillageGarage That's cool. I had known the car since '72. It was a buddy of mine's dad's car. Ran into a jam in 1983 and had to sell the '69 ragtop, the '70 RAIII 4spd Formula and the '70 Trans Am. That left me with a '79 Gran Prix. I needed 5 or 6k, and as luck would have it, the 3 good cars sold first.
