This GTO is a thoroughbred investment. Finding one optioned like
this, that matches up to the documentation will be extremely
difficult.
The 1964 GTO is given credit as being the first muscle car. The big
brass at GM did not want a big engine used in a midsize car. Under
direction of John Delorean, the GTO slipped through the cracks as
an option on the Lemans, not an actual model. The car became an
instant hit and the muscle car era was born!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure
your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do
a walk around video that explains the car's condition in
detail.
