1964 Pontiac GTO
Here is the story. This car was originally factory ordered by Bob Weyrick and he took delivery in Portland, OR, to get around the California Smog issues. When he arrived to pick up his car, he asked where it was. They pointed to his car and said its right there. Bob said he didnt order that "pink" looking color. It turns out he had marked the wrong box on the order form. There were 3 different reds offered that year, Marimba Red, Grenadier Red and Sunfire Red. He decided to keep it and off to California he went. Bob settled in Lompoc, CA. and began drag racing THE OLD GOAT.
Bob (he's passed now) said that 12,000 to 14,000 of the miles on the odometer are from being flat towed to the various drag strips around Southern California. There is tons of race history included with the car along with a large inventory of parts. More on that later. The car was raced in the mid to late 60s. Included are lots of time slips from local drag strips in the 1960s Santa Maria Drag Strip, Riverside Raceway, Irwindale Dragstrip, Lyons Drag Strip and The Pomona Winternationals. Lots of other drag racing memorabilia, brochures from the 1968 & 1970 Winternationals in Pomona, CA with his name and car listed in them. There is a hand written letter signed by Ed Pink, responding to Bobs inquiry about some engine work. Original owners manual and warranty book with the protect o plate. PHS Documents. The original M20 transmission is included. It currently has a M22 and the required scatter shield. Original bell housing included. Posi-traction rear end. Original interior
