Check out the silver 288 GTO. Very cool. Thanks for posting.

Of course, it's probably red these days

Nice pics. To think that some of those Boxers were practically new.

What a lucky kid you were!

My own 308 is silver, a color I love more the longer I have it, and have always wondered what a GTO would look like in that color. I did not think it had ever been done. (If anyone knows the story of that car, please post it!)

And what about the car in the very top left photo?

Is the circled car a 330GTS...or something along those lines? Without a book in front of me, that is what jumps into my brain...

About the silver GTO, if you look closer you can see that the licence plate is from Mexico.

"Sam Bardor based in Mexico City and Houston had two silver 288 GTOs (both painted post-production), chassis numbers 54225 and 56335."
