TIRE-FRYING 1965 PONTIAC GTO!

Got a new 65 , 3 2s midnight blue, blue interior for graduation from high school. Wha a great car. Got drafted and sold it just before leaving for nam. Have owned many cars over the years years. 442, SS 396, and several corvettes. My GOAT was my favorite. Miss those times.

The 65 GTO is GM at their very very best!!

65 Goats have great styling!

I remember my 65 GTO three deuces 4-speed 389 best car I ever had

To those that say America was never great, BS! The performance and style from Pontiac says it all!

Great looking and performing car from an era we'll never see again. I had a '66 with a 4 bbl. and 2 speed auto. My dad bought it for me in about 1972, before the Arab oil embargo. New cars at that time had some smog equipment and lower compresion pistons to run on unleaded gas. That car really growled from about 35 mph when I "floored it" and it downshifted to 1st up to around 70 mph when it shifted into 2nd gear. It was pretty too, with gold paint and matching gold interior. It was more of a luxury hot rod and fully equipped with PS, PB, and A/C. I drove it every day as I was going to college and gas was dirt cheap. Sometimes, I wish I could go back to those relatively care-free days.

I’ll never forget mine…what a car!

Ahhhhh...the '65 Goat. Oooof... EVERYTHING was soooo right with that car.

Campy......thank you for this wonderful video. Quick story - my late step-father was a car salesman in Pasadena, CA , and a customer traded in a '65 Lemans for a newer vehicle. My step dad bought the Lemans and brought it home to me as my first car as a sophomore in high school - 1978. I was a punk kid and initially did not appreciate it. Thought it was an "old ladies" car. But when I drove it to school for the first time and some of the hot rodder gearheads gave me a thumbs up, my countenance completely changed. This started my love affair for A-body 60's cars. I eventually had the Lemans repainted, removed all the emblems and badges, and everyone assumed it was a GTO. LOL. So many great memories driving that Pontiac !! Gene's GTO here is absolutely gorgeous !

I was 16 in 1969 and our area had many muscle cars on the streets every night. Even at 16 I was working on many of them. Some belonged to my brother-in-law, a 68 442, 64 Stingray and later a 71 Duster with the Wedge head 340. But in my opnion hte 65 GTO was the best looking of all the muscle cars. And I still love the looks and perforance of three dueces and a four speed.
