GTO Convertible Was $79,995.00 Now $69,995.00This is a custom
restored 1965 Pontiac GTO that is fabulous in every detail. It is
finished in a custom deep gold paint with white interior. It
features bucket seats and console front and rear, 4 speed
transmission, Vintage A/C, tilt wheel, power windows and Dakota
Digital dash gauges. Underhood details include a smoothed firewall
and March billet pulley system. Other custom features are shaved
door handles and Hurst wheels.The Tempest line, including the GTO,
was restyled for the 1965 model year, adding 3.1 inches (79mm) to
the overall length while retaining the same wheelbase and interior
dimensions. It had Pontiac's characteristic vertically stacked quad
headlights. Overall weight increased about 100lb (45kg). The brake
lining area increased nearly 15%. Heavy-duty shocks were standard,
as was a stronger front antisway bar. The dashboard design was
changed, and an optional rally gauge cluster ($86.08) added a more
legible techometer and oil pressure gauge. An additional option was
a breaker less transistor ignition.The restyled GTO had a new
simulated hood scoop. A seldom seen dealer-installed option
consisted of a metal underhood pan and gaskets to open the scoop,
making it a cold air intake. The scoop was low enough that its
effectiveness was questionable (it was unlikely to pick up anything
but boundary layer air), but it allowed more of the engine's roar
to escape. Another cosmetic change was the black "egg-crate"
grille.
