GTO go show tow

There are 'GO' cars you usually find these at the drag track only, as most aren't street legal. There are 'SHOW' cars you usually find these trailer queens around the big cars shows, these seldom see the streets either. Then there are 'TOW' cars these live on the streets hauling the above to the tracks and the shows. Very occasionally there's a GO & SHOW car but how many classic GO, SHOW & TOW cars are there (possibly just one)? Here are a few pictures of such a car. Taken from a New England rusted shell to a flawless vehicle in less than six months by my friend Darrin who operates a car performance/restoration business. This car recently featured in Pontiac Enthusiast Magazine.
