3894-PHX 1965 PONTIAC GTO

Featured in the January 2022 GTO magazine, 1965 Pontiac GTO in Capri Gold sets the standard for classic muscle with factory Tri-Power credentials. Magazine-worthy and meticulously restored, this second-year GTO runs with optional Rally One Pontiac wheels with trim rings, gripped by Goodyear Eagle GT II P215/70R14 white letter radials. Clean, muscular lines of the body get extra definition from vinyl pinstripes along the top edges, while factory-correct exhaust splitters nail the period look. Frame-off restored in 1996, this GTO maintains a clean, consistent look that makes it stand tall among early muscle machines.

Black vinyl covers the factory-authentic interior, giving this GTO a no-nonsense muscle car attitude. The bucket seats grip you during hard cornering while looking period perfect. Factory console with the correct shifter and shift knob puts the Muncie four-speed right where you need it. All the original Pontiac gauges line the dash - racing flag speedometer, tachometer, water temperature, and oil pressure - giving you all the information you need at a glance. Factory Pontiac floor mats, three-spoke steering wheel with simulated wood rim, and original AM radio complete the pure '60s muscle car vibe.

Brutal performance comes from the legendary 389 V8 with factory Tri-Power setup gulping air through three Rochester two-barrel carburetors with mechanical linkage. WS-code means 360 tire-smoking horsepower connected to the M21 Muncie four-speed manual transmission. Rebuilt in 1996, the engine looks showroom fresh with factory-correct cast iron manifolds, chrome valve covers, and chrome open-element air cleaners. A 10-bolt rear end with 3.90 gears and limited slip gets all that Detroit muscle to the pavement for explosive launches. The full mechanical package delivers pure, unadulterated performance that made the GTO name legendary.
