1965 Pontiac GTO Convertible

LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1965 Pontiac GTO Convertible 

  The first Pontiac GTO in '64 was an option package for the Pontiac Tempest and was restyled for the 1965 model year. Changes included adding 3.1 inches to the overall length while retaining the same wheelbase and interior dimensions. It had Pontiac's characteristic vertically stacked quad headlights on either side of the black "egg-crate" grille with a new simulated hood scoop. The dashboard design was changed and an optional rally gauge cluster added a more legible tachometer and oil pressure gauge. The 389 engines received revised cylinder heads with re-cored intake passages and high-rise intake manifolds, improving breathing. Rated power increased to 335 hp for the base four-barrel engine and 360hp for the desirable Tri Power set up. 

  This stunning example was sold new at Knowles Pontiac and is finished in factory Montero Red with a black convertible top.  Open the door and you'll find the factory correct Red interior package that is both sporty yet classy in design. The firm front bucket and rear bench seats feature bright chrome trim, nicely pleated covers and era-correct factory optional front lap belts with side retractors. In front of the driver, a Custom Sports Steering Wheel sports a simulated wood rim with three steel spokes around a Pontiac-branded horn button. Under the hood is a “WS” Tri-Power 389/360 HP engine topped with three 2-barrel carburetors, each with a separate air cleaner featuring light chrome accenting. Behind this is the real driver’s choice, a Hurst-shifted 4-speed transmission and the all-business Safe-T-Track differential, as well as power steering and power disc brakes. The appearance package is finished off with a set of Hurst wheels and red line bias ply tires. This beautiful GTO comes fully documented with full Pontiac Historical Services paperwork

  This GTO muscle car features an ideal blend of performance, style and top down fun -- it'll be an absolute pleasure to drive and show. Start humming the iconic song by Ronny and the Daytona's - "Little GTO" - you'll want to put the top down and get on down the road.
