Jim Oakley's GTO sports unique one-of-a kind "Pontiac" cast aluminum valve covers. They were fashioned from the Pontiac corporate covers and according to Jim, plenty of time was spent working them to fit the Pontiac engine. Well, I saw the car and the covers at a recent car show in Maryland and can emphatically state they look great! In fact, this GTO looks "marvelous" as Billy Crystal would say. Jim purchased the car in 1978 from a bracket racer and the GTO has slowly evolved into its present state rather than being "built." It's been a little here and a little there. In the late '80s the car won multiple class titles at both GTOAA and POCI National Conventions. The color of this beauty is 1974 Camel Tan metallic. Most of the engine modifications, as you will note, are Pontiac or GM parts. It runs pretty darn good too...way to go Jim.
