    When an "old man" drives a 64 GTO - he is no longer old ... for about 13 seconds.

    Notice how he sits pretty far back in his seat? Its because he needs all the space he can get to fit his massive balls to drive a car like this around those bends at those speeds 😂 what a champ 🙌🏻

    Not too many people would run a valuable car as hard as you did and i commend you for driving like these cars should be driven. Brings back a lot of memories. Most of my musclecars were of the 4 spd. variety. Ain't nothing like one hand on the wheel,one on the shifter and the car sideways. Thanks for this AWESOME video.

    Made me smile! About 20 years ago I had a 1965 Chevelle with a dyno proven 681 hp 496 BBC. It had a full cage, ran 10's on pump gas, was licensed and insured. I would drive it into work at least once or twice a week, and I regularly just drove it everywhere. One day I was at a big parts house and the clerk needed to see my car to make sure I was getting the right part. When he saw the car, he just said: " oh my God - you are that guy!" I wasn't sure what he meant by that, so I asked: what do you mean? He said that he had heard rumors about some old guy seen dressed in a suit and tie, driving with slicks, a cage, a 5" cowl hood, in a thumping big block Chevelle, looking like he was just driving a Cadillac on his way to work - and then blasting off as soon as there was an opening in traffic! This is a nice GTO, driven enjoyably I would say.

    I sold my car to a kid who wrecked it two weeks later.
    A deed I regret to this day!

    Wow, your video brought back great memories! I used to street race my 64 Tri-Power GTO and won 39 of 41 races. That was back in my high school days of the late 60s. What a FUN car she was! When I raced, we always started from a roll, about 25-30 mph. Then, we hit it, and off to the races! Like many others commenting here, I wish more owners would put the petal to the metal. The ole' goat was meant to run, not walk. Thank you for doing it right. GTOs are meant to run!

    Had a 70 GTO with a 400. I replaced the quadrajet with a bolt on 835 cfm, spreadbore, double pumper Holley. I opened the exhaust as well. I had a problem similar to the Old Man's, I only new OFF and Wide Open. The biggest problem with most of the GTOs was slowing them down. I wore out a new set of Micky Thompson 50s in a week. I busted out laughing when that Old Man first got on it. I had my wife watch it with me. We laughed so hard we cried, and we had a death grip on our chairs the entire ride.
    I had to get rid of the GTO because of speeding tickets. I bought a 4 cylinder Subaru and have never drove a really powerful car since. That was over 40 years ago.
    Thanks! Drive it like you stole it!

    I have goosebumps sir! I have a '64 hardtop bronze over saddle that is all original with 98 grand on the clock. The reason I bought it was that my dad had a marimba red hardtop that he bought in '66 and his folks sold it on him when he got drafted in '68. He put a lot of work into it and it ran hard on Woodward in Detroit. Mine is bone stock and I don't want to molest it but I would love a rig like yours.

My nephew had the 1966 GTO but i am not sure on that motor, i assume your probably right on that. I went off to the marines and got to be friends with a guy who was from Des Moines not far from my hometown. I sold it to him on payments and he got out of the service on a medical, he never sent me the money so i looked him up when i came back on leave. He said it caught on fire and burnt up😡, of course i never got a dime out of him.

I remember my 1970 Plymouth GTX with a built up 383 Road Runner engine in it, auto on the column, the original 440 4 speed was in the Road Runner with the three two barrels added on but mine was good enough for a sixteen year old kid back in 1979-'80, right before the muscle cars started to fade away at the time!
