  • Without a doubt, the nicest 65 GTO‘s I have ever seen… Unbelievably impeccable! I better not ever hit the lotto, because I’m gonna make you an offer. You can’t refuse on at least one of them… Ha.😂👍👌
  • I’m 17 again I found my 65 GTO. On blocks. I put a HO 400 72 motor in it and had turbo 400 with a shift kit and 411 gear posi rear. It was my dream car. I’m 60 now I’m happy to see someone who loved this car so much. P S Pontiac should have offered the 421 for the GTO

    Yes, Pontiacs are awesome...Jay Leno can stick it...I absolutely love your cars...
  • Speechless!! Absolutely stunning cars. My first car in high school was a ‘65 LeMans. Lol…. I had it repainted, took off all the trim emblems and told my buddies it was a GTO. They didn’t know the difference.

    Beautiful GTO. In 1987 I was 26 years old when I became the second owner of a 1971 Pontiac Grand Prix.I kept it all these years in my garage,always road ready,was off the road for 11 years but I continued to drive it around the block and kept doing any maintenance that it needed.Now retired,I drive it every nice day,what a gem it is. Keep the Pontiacs going !!!

    I bought my 67 GTO 4 spd in Baton Rouge in summer of 67. Graduated college in 68 and went to work at Shell Chemical Company in Deer Park Texas in May of 68. Lived by NASA MSC and my dealer was Gay Pontiac just a few minutes south in Dickinson, Tx. Don, Jr was a student at San Jacinto JC at the time. He was running both his funny car and a SS GTO. HIs Crew Chief was the Service Manager at Gay Pontiac. Jerry was his name. I had Jerry redo my Quadrajet for my Jardine headers and damn it ran rich unless the headers were uncapped, but a great car. Fun times.
  • My 65 came with the 389 but those engines has a fatal flaw when building them up, the rocker studs are pressed in and a high lift cam tends to jack the studs out of the heads. I tried street racing two of those 389s because I wanted the stock sleeper look. I finally went with a ram air III 400 cube engine that had a forged steel crank. Had to use the 389 valve covers with 2 gaskets for rocker clearance and yet looked stock. Much better engine. Bought the car when it was 6 years old and had that car for 41 years. Loved that car.

    Best witness to the 65 GTO I've seen and brings back many memories. I bought a new 65 GTO coupe in New Orleans and raced it on the streets, potholes and all. Mine was painted Teal Turquoise, Turquoise interior, 4 bbl, 4-speed, stock rear end 323, and had some optional stereo speaker kit that sounded like an echo chamber. The drive shaft would bump the bottom which was the only thing that irritated me. I believe I had one of the first of these cars in town and ran with 2 others of the same color except they had the 3-duce setups. Very fast off the line and always jumped the 442's, the various Chevy's and all other street-production challengers. Had to sell it when I went to Army Basic Training but would love to find it again. I've had some Vets but the GTO still has a special romance about it. Thanks for the show and the extensive Pontiac knowledge.
