Folks say the Pontiac GTO introduced the muscle car era, and it
still remains one of the most popular muscle cars of all time. With
a name meaning 'Gran Turismo Omologato', there is little doubt that
the GTO was created with performance in mind. This 1966 GTO hardtop
(code 42) is one of the nicest first generation "Goats" that you
will ever find. It has been the beneficiary of a high-end frame-off
restoration and is virtually better than new. The exterior was
professionally refinished in 2-stage Fontaine Blue (code D/original
color) with a new black vinyl top. Accents include GTO trim, hood
scoop and factory Pontiac Rally wheels that mount 14" Coker Classic
red line radial tires. All chrome and stainless pieces have been
re-chromed/replaced/polished. This Pontiac is stunning. The fully
restored black vinyl interior is correct and beautiful. This
classic was factory equipped/optioned with a wood finished dash,
deluxe alloy-spoke wood wheel, factory push button AM radio, tinted
glass and seat belts. An AutoGage gauge package and tachometer have
also been added. Horsepower is said to be furnished by a
Pontiac400ci V8 that has been performance-built and sounds very
strong. Upgrades include GTO 'Ramjet' heads, roller valve train,
Edelbrock aluminum intake and Edelbrock performance carburetor. It
sits in a beautifully detailed engine compartment and is backed by
a bulletproof 3-speed Turbo400 automatic transmission with console
shift. A 'Saf-T-Track' positraction differential w/3.70:1gears
delivers the power to the pavement. The carefully detailed chassis
is equipped with power steering, power drum brakes and dual
exhaust. History/documentation included with the car consists of
the original title, build sheet, window sticker, owners manual and
Protect-O-Plate. Our current owner is ready to pass this revered
muscle car on to a new home - why shouldn't that be your garage?
ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS IS".
