Thought it was 64 for the gto but definitely the granddaddy of the muscle car movement and deserves the respect of that title cause unlike most 62 year olds ... This one still moves like she did when it was brand new

Hard to tell whether it is a 63 or 64, even went and took a look at the build sheet. No where on the build sheet do they give you the year, in plain language at least. Regardless, still a great car, and I am glad I got a chance to video it up close.

If you want to keep that rear rack on the bike, don't put any weight in the trailer, or on breaking, the trailer will at some point rip the rack off.

That was actually Deerfoot trail you were passing over. 17 ave/international avenue turns into Blackfoot trail on the west side of 17th. I checked Google maps to be sure and it seems as though it labels the Max Bus overpass as Blackfoot trail still when it goes over Deerfoot

Asom has different designs. Most of them connect to the wheel. I considered the seatpost connection but I figured it would interfere with my bike rack. So I McGyvered a different connection elsewhere on the frame

@@dscarpediem1 my solution was a frame clamp meant for mounting motorbike mirrors with a bolt and locking nuts to attach the receiver to the bottom of the seatpost.
