My dream car is a '65 GTO convertible.

It was mine too . Let me tell you about it. It was about that color when I purchased it. The two happiest days of my life was the day I purchased it new and the day I sold it. I didn't lose any money on the sale either. It was a T-Top that made noise when the sun was shining and leaked when it rained. The T-Top also made poping noise when it cooled off in the afternoons. When You filled it with gas you always put in a quart of oil and then checked for another quart. The law would stop you before anyone else always. I hope you get your wish and I hope it turns out better than mine did. I firmly believe Chevrolet is building better cars now.
