It is not every day that a car as special as this one becomes
available for sale. Survivor Classic Cars is proud to present an
extremely clean 1965 Pontiac GTO survivor.
Despite the1964 GTO'sinitial success, Pontiac executive Jim Wangers
claimed that many more could have been sold if it wasn't for
industry strikes. Wangers was proved almost correct in 1965, when
75,352 GTOS were delivered, up from 32,450 the year before. The
1965 Pontiac GTO was still a $295 Tempest Le Mans option package,
crisply redesigned with vertically stacked headlights, a split
recessed grille and a single hood scoop.
The first thing that catches your eye is that rare Mayfair Maize
paint. It was repainted in the mid 70s in the original color as
documented on the window sticker. The second is that killer muscle
car stance with just enough rake sitting on top of American Racing
Torq Thrust alloy wheels wrapped in CooperCobra Radial T/A tires.
The original Pontiac Rally Wheels with Redline tires are included
in the sale as well.
The original Gold interior shows some wear, but is in amazing
condition overall, especially for the age. The Classic four-pod
dash shows well as do the vinyl bucket seats and center console. An
original style AM FM stereo functions as it should and the Hurst
shifter is graced with a classic white round shift knob.
This clean example is PHS documented as a true 365 HP Tri Power
from the factory. We even have the original window sticker to
verify that everything is correct on this goat. The 389CI V8 engine
is mated to a Muncie M20 4 speed manual transmission. Power
steering and power brakes make it a breeze to drive and stop the
car confidently.
The car is in great shape overall and it runs/drives extremely well
thanks to a bunch of recent service including all 3 carburetors
rebuilt.
