Vehicle Description
Classic Car Addict is proud to present this beautiful 1966 Pontiac
GTO for sale in our Mesa, Arizona showroom. The first Pontiac GTO
began production in 1963 and was available as an option package for
the LeMans model, available in coupe, hardtop, and convertibles. In
1965, the Tempest model lineup including the GTO was restyled with
a simulated hood scoop. For 1966, the GTO became a separate Pontiac
model (number 242) instead of being an options package on the
Tempest LeMans. The body was restyled gaining more curvaceous
styling with kicked-up rear fender lines for a "Coke-bottle"
look.
For 1966, sales increased to 96,946, the highest production figure
for all GTO years. Pontiac had promoted the GTO in advertising as
the "GTO Tiger", but it had become known in the youth market as the
"GOAT".
The cabin features custom TMI front bucket seats finished in black
leather and Alcantara with blue stitching. Door panels are also
custom that match the seats with blue stitching. New black carpet
was also installed during restoration. It features a custom center
console with a Hurst shifter and Vintage AC that blows nice and
cold. A three-spoke steering wheels fronts Dakota Digital gauges on
an Ididit steering column with tilt, mileage reads 1,744. The Goat
also features custom interior lighting with a Pioneer 7-inch touch
screen with AM/FM/AUX/Bluetooth. The consignor also had tint
replaced on all windows, including the windshield.
The car from factory was code "1", which means special paint. The
GTO now wears a custom Cobalt Blue paint that really shines under
any light. She features the stacked headlights (HID), hood scoop,
and chrome trim on the bumpers, window surrounds, rocker panels,
and grille. She rolls on staggered Forgiato Azioni-T rims (19"
front and 20" rear) with Lexani LX-Twenty 245/35ZR19 front and
275/30ZR20 rears.
The 389ci V8 (Pontiac blue metallic engine block) is paired to a
Muncie 4-speed manual transmission (M21, close ratio) and features
a FiTech fuel injection system, chrome air cleaner and valve
covers, aluminum radiator with electric fans. The engine was
rebuilt and balanced during the restoration. Power is sent to the
rear via a 10-bolt rear end with posi-traction, 350 gear ratio. The
battery was replaced in July 2024.
The GTO will be sold on a clean Arizona title with documentation
and receipts. Don't miss out on this opportunity to own a beautiful
