Welcome to my little webspace for my 1998 Grand Prix GTP, Daytona 500 Edition Pace Car. Sadly it's been sold, and I've moved on.
It's been featured on
www.pfyc.com for the car of the week previously, and is used for the sale of their "F1" Hoods. It's won a best looking car contest on
www.discounttiredirect.com in Feb '05, and can also be found on
E-Bay by VT_GTP for the grilles. So I've gotten some recognition on the net.
Before I even get started, the most recent pics and mods can be found on this page, page 2 is info, and pics, and page 3 is some pics from January '05. Only a few changes where made, but it seemed to change the personality of the car alot. Wheels really make a difference.
