Each year the OPGI Marketing team is tasked with choosing a cover car for their 11 annual Restoration and Performance parts catalogs. With so many beautiful customer cars to choose from, it can be a tough task. This year the team reached out to Honorable Craig Kamanasky out of San Bernardino, California. The team was hopeful that he’d be interested in having his 1970 GTO Judge appear on the cover of our 2022 GTO Catalog covering 1961-73 GTO, LeMans & Tempest models. Needless to say, Craig was honored.

Everyone loves a family-owned classic, and that is exactly what Original Parts Group customer Rich Scandaliato has with his ’67 Grand Prix Convertible. The Grand Prix has been in Rich’s family since it was purchased in 1967 from Rockville Center Pontiac in Long Island, NY by his father. It was not long after that the Grand Prix was trailered all the way to California when the family decided to move west.
More, recently Kyle switched gears to work on the final look of the 6.0, decking it out with an all-inclusive pulley drive system by Eddie Motorsports. The complete pulley drive system comes with a lot of upgraded components and is the ideal conversion for any Chevrolet V8 engine. The system will eliminate the original v-pulley system and bolt on the S-Drive for the modern serpentine drive system Kyle desires for the Chevelle.
It was another epic turnout at the 34th Annual Seal Beach Classic Car Show, with over 500 Classic Cars and their proud owners lined up on Main and Ocean in Seal Beach, California ready to show and shine. Original Parts Group also took part in the showing and shining, bringing our 1965 Chevelle Malibu and 1967 Buick Skylark to showcase some of our premium quality reproduction parts.
It was love at first sight for OPGI Customer Roger Acquistapace when he first laid eyes on his ’71 Monte Carlo. After seeing a 1970 model for the first time, Roger knew the Monte Carlo was the vehicle for him. When the 1971 model was released, Roger made his way over to Pellini Chevrolet located in beautiful wine country in Sebastopol California, and purchased one brand new. Like many of our Monte Carlo customers, Roger is a proud member of the First Generation Monte Carlo Club and has been for over 15 years. His Monte Carlo has won several well-deserved trophies.
