1965 Pontiac GTO --

This real-deal 1965 Pontiac GTO has been customized over every inch. So look over the all the details, including the slick paint, A/C interior, and performance V8, and soon you'll realize this is the big power machine that knows how to leave a lasting impression. This one has all your favorite elements that makes this the granddaddy of all muscle machines, including the stacked headlights, hood scoop, hardtop profile, full GTO badging, and artful taillight arrangements. But this...classic also has a personality all its own. The Indigo Blue mixes a modern clearcoat shine and plenty of metallic element to highlight the crisp sheetmetal. But what really makes this stand out is the custom white, magenta, and teal arrangement that starts at the front fender and artfully dances its way down the profile. And those 17-inch Boyd Coddington wheels have a terrific shine to go with all that bright trim and wraparound bumpers. It's a total custom appearance that announces someone made some big investments in this GTO (it spent 2+ years in restoration.) The custom presentation continues inside. You still get Pontiac's classic arrowhead pattern on the bucket seats, but it was custom crafted into a comfy velour setup. In fact, this classic coupe has some more terrific comfort upgrades like the AM/FM/CD/XM stereo featuring Bluetooth and cold-blowing R134a air conditioning. But comfy doesn't mean this is a pure coddler. This GTO was made to eat the streets. Your right hand will get a tingle of performance the moment it touches the B&M shifter. And that feeling continues as your left hand grabs the sports steering wheel and you gaze across the dash full of AutoMeter Sport-Comp gauges. While the interior and exterior are already worth showing off, we know you'll really be proud to lift the hood wherever you park this GTO. The tidy black walls filter all your attention to the motor, and we dare you to find another component that could receive a mirror-like polish. But more than just style, you have serious substance. The 468 cubic-inch V8 is larger than anything ever offered in a GTO. It started life as a 455 V8 before thousands $$$$ were spent during the engine build in 2004. It includes a bored .60 over kit, steel crank, roller rockers, newer serpentine belt drive system, aluminum radiator, Ram Air IV heads, and topped with a Holley four-barrel carburetor. It's a big power package, and the growl from the header-fed H-pipe dual exhaust lets the world know your superiority. Getting the power to the ground is a TH400 three-speed automatic transmission with a shift kit to keep you in the optimal power band. And this feeds a stout 12-bolt rear end with versatile 3.08 gears. Add in power steering, front disc brakes, and thick sway bars front & rear, and this street machine is a fine all-around classic. The sale comes complete with Pontiac Historic Services (PHS) paperwork, reproduction window sticker, owner's manual, and maintenance records. This is the distinct, custom, and big power GTO you've been waiting for, so don't let it slip away. Call today!!!
