1964 PONTIAC GTO 'THE GTO-R'

摘要

Unlike the numerous "R" designations that have popped up on lesser cars over the past few years, the Raybestos GTO-R actually earns that now seemingly universal designation for "race prepped."Designed and built by Hot Rod Chassis & Cycle (HRCC) as a giveaway car for Raybestos, you'd expect that this '64 GTO was little more than looks and graphics—but that's just not how Raybestos' Josh Russell and HRCC's Kevin Tully build cars. Russell decreed that this needed to be one that not only talked the talk, but fully walked the walk. He wanted something that harkened back to Raybestos road racing days as well as nodded toward their heavy involvement in NASCAR right up to the current cars—maybe with a little bit of Herb Adams Gray Ghost thrown in.
