Default Re: Best Pontiac Powered Stockers

Just realized that I ID'd a pic wrong. When I saw a pic(pic #4 below) of a white '66 Knafel Pontiac, I thought it was one of the OHC cars that Knafel ran.

BUT, on closer examination of the pic, as well as noticing the same car in another pic(pic #5 below), I realized that the car is actually the original Tin Indian V '66 GTO. It has BB/S on it, in that pic. So, what class is that ?

I'd been thinking & posting that the GTO pictured with all the trophies was actually the car that won all the races.

I've also posted pics of the Knafel 2-car rig, with 2 '66 GTO's on it, with different paint schemes. Now I'm really confused.

So, were there actually 3 of these cars, all of which were raced in '66 ?

Was the trophy car actually the same car as in pic #4, just made later, when it had a different paint job ?

How many different GTO's are pictured below ?

Note: Don't count the OHC six ragtop.
