A major sore point with fans of the original GTO's.
I think its more like this....It's a Holden Manaro, but GM brought it over here and turned it into a Pontiac GTO, then the guy that bought it, turned it back into a Holden Manaro. LOL...It would be really cool if he had it crated over here, but seeing that the drivers seat is on the "normal" side, I highly doubt that. Plus, I can see the differences between the paint on the bumper, and the fender.

Nice pics!!! That grand prix is bad!!!

Nice pics man, but that black monte isnt my favorite. With the big chrome wheels on the front and lil stockers on the back.

And that GTP wow thats hot, not a fan of the hood but hey if it works hell yeah.

Nooope...it's a GTO converted back to a Holden. Well, at least with the front end. Even the website that is on the banner of his windshield advertises front end conversions. The real Holden has the right side drive....this is a GTO, which still is a Holden, but it was converted for America, then they put the JHP Holden body kit conversion on it.

Very nice pics. Thanks for sharing, and it's definitely a converted GTO to look like a Holden. I believe the front looks better converted.

Your ride's lookin nice under the hood. You should paint all the black support bar's under the hood chrome illusion paint or just get them ceramic coated and polished, that would make that charger really pop, I think anyways. ****ty deal you could'nt get your new pulley on, but I bet your more motivated to do it for the next time. What all did that Grand Prix have done it?
