<font face="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><span style="font-size:11pt">The speed performance of this car is beyond impressive, for a modernized muscle car. This '64 Goat is stocked with a 7.4-liter engine under the hood, a Tremec six-speed manual transmission, Moser 9-inch rear-end, custom fabricated body and suspension, over $20,000 worth of Raybestos NASCAR brakes and a reverse-sweep 180-mph speedometer! And, most importantly this car was built-to-win! Raybestos will hand over the keys to one lucky winner who enters the 2011 GTO-R Sweepstakes on their microsite -- www.raybestosgarage.com -- between now until September 15th. Only one entry per person.
This interpretation of the iconic car was constructed by expert fabricator, Kevin Tully, and his crew at Hot Rod Chassis & Cycle, in Addison, Illinois.
"The Raybestos GTO-R is a bit of a departure for us from the Traditional Hot Rods that we normally build, but with their expectation that it will chew up any road course or drag strip, it'll be fun for us to transpose our track proven experience to engineer a racecar that sees street use, rather than hot rods that can spend the weekend at the track," said HRCC owner Kevin Tully.
Raybestos and Hot Rod Chassis & Cycle used the frame from the '64 GTO-R and added a few noteworthy parts, including a GM-sourced LSX crate engine. It's built to be a jack of all trades, too, as at home on the drag strip or the boulevard as it is at the track.
