    I had a 1965 with a 400 2bbl, yellow, with a black vinyl roof. It was really only about three-quarters of a GTO, at least in terms of function. It had three power windows and one manual winder. The transmission would shift into reverse if you braked too hard. It had leaking floors and exhaust and would try to kill you by rolling up all of the powered windows by itself and asphyxiating you... and one night it managed to rip out its own spark-plug leads.

    I miss that car.
