1966 Pontiac GTO Coupe
For consignment, a 1966 Pontiac GTO coupe showing 67,212 miles, but the true miles are unknown. This one has a rebuilt engine, transmission, and rear end and is topped by the coveted Tri-Power carburetion set up!
Exterior
Long and lean, the family car turned tiger is bathed here in two stage Montero Red that's as hot as a Carolina Reaper with polished accents that include the rocker panel and window trim, bookended by contouring chrome bumpers. The front is reserved for Pontiac's trademarks, including the arrowhead emblem, split grille, and stacked headlights. Giving it a proper muscular look is the central hood scoop with two nostrils fit for a fire breathing dragon. A bowtie shaped rear fascia houses unforgettable slit style tail lights and 15-inch Pontiac Rally I wheels carry 75 series red line tires, a cool feature that eventually made its way to Hot Wheels. The metalwork and paint are excellent on the car and we could not find any glaring exterior imperfections.
Interior
A red topped GTO emblem on each door panel is a nice accent piece and both doors present cleanly, leading to black vinyl low bucket seats in front with tight tuck and roll pattern, repeated on the rear bench which is just about pristine. The three spoke wood rimmed steering wheel shares its column with a tachometer that fronts a woodgrain faced dashboard housing the standard gauge package, here with some hazing on the plexi fronts. The AM radio and vent lever panel reside in the middle and a trio of condition gauges has been mounted under the dash. There's some patina on the passenger side near the grab handle while the Hurst shifter serves as the driver's grab handle, rising from the center console and its metallic finned design and offset for the driver. Black loop carpet below presents nicely but the headliner shows some sagging. The trunk is clean and houses an extra red line.
Drivetrain
A clean engine is revealed when the hood is raised, a rebuilt 455ci V8 from 1976 and it's got polished finned valve covers and Tri-Power carburetors on top. It's mated to a rebuilt, date- correct Muncie M20 4-speed manual transmission that routes power to the rebuilt 12 bolt out back with 3.31 gears and Positraction.
Undercarriage
Some muddy road spray is the only thing that detracts from an otherwise clean underside that has minimal surface rust and no errant fluids. Headers begin the exhaust process which generates dual exhaust running through FlowMaster mufflers and exiting through clean stainless steel pipes out back. Power brakes are onboard as front disc and rear drum and suspension consists of coil springs in front and rear with a 4 link in back. A newer gas tank with electric pump and sway bars add to the clean underside.
Drive-Ability
This is a clean machine and as we turn the key and fire up the big 455, we're hoping it drives well too! It sounds great and takes on first gear like a champ. Then second and third. There's good power here and the car tracks straight and braking is on point. To put a cherry on top of this red rider, all functions on board operate as intended. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
Every serious car collection should have a clean GTO. People new to the hobby who are looking for their first, collectible muscle car should consider a classic GTO. For those who have dreamed about a GTO, this one checks all the boxes and is turn key ready. In the world of classic cars, you can put all your money down on red and come out ahead.
