Here is still another stunning classic example, a 1966 Pontiac GTO brought to you by Joe Basil Classics. The Basil family has worked diligently to bring you fine new and used automobiles and excellence in service since 1951. Recently, we chose to expand into the classic car market and have constructed a beautiful building on Transit Rd. in Lancaster – Depew. There you can leisurely view our latest collection of classic vehicles year round in a comfortable climate-controlled environment.
Pontiac entered the intermediate performance market officially in 1964 with the introduction of the GTO. The designation GTO was taken from the Italian 250 Ferrari GTO which stands for Gran Turismo Omologato, an Italian grand touring designation. From 1964 through 1966 the GTO had a 389 cubic inch displacement with single or multiple carburetion options. Later years expanded to 400 cubic inch engines with ram air options.
This 1966 GTO is among the finest examples we have seen in recent years. It is powered by a 335hp 389ci V8 engine which is backed by a four speed standard transmission equipped with a Hurst shifter and a positraction rear end. The engine compartment is clean and encompasses the no power option, no nonsense high output engine. Just a glance at the front of this car gives the immediate feel of performance with the mesh grill backing the classic running lights coupled just above with the tastefully crafted hood scoop. The bright red paint is in excellent condition as are all the body panels, showing factory correct original condition. All the chrome and bright work on this Goat (American slang adopted to describe a GTO) is also in great condition. The aftermarket chrome wheels and white letter tires are impressive additions but for the purest, the standard factory mag wheels and red wall tires are also included with this sale. A spare tire is also included in the trunk as is the factory jack and correct trunk floor mat.
The simple yet attractive black vinyl interior includes inviting bucket seats, GTO markings on the door panels and dash as well as a tasteful woodgrain gauge, radio and control surround. Just ahead of the Hurst shifter, you find an aftermarket addition of temperature and oil pressure gauges, along with a well positioned tachometer. Once seated behind the wheel, the unmistakable feeling of muscle car power is undeniable. The 1966 model year is one of the most elegantly designed GTOs, and this particular one is no exception.
