I had a 1964 GTO back in the day (1971) but the colors were reversed. Tripower with a four speed. Wish I had it today...

Bought it off my Physics Professor for $400 and sold it three months later for $600, thought I did good . It was my summer project, needed the funds to go back to college .

One of my Favorite cars, 65 gto.A friend of mine had a green one,white interior rally dash 389 tripower 4 speed back in the day.That was one rubber burning machine.

I had a friend, that had a 64 GTO, with 3 duces. It was a light car, and was scary fast.

If you see that fella again, see if you can talk him out of those hubcaps. My brother would LOVE to have them for his '67 Goat!

I think it was about 2 years ago, I gave my oldest son my '67 GTO that I had since 1981. He restored it beautifully. I'll grab some pics and post them. My favorite year GTO is '65. I just love those old Pontiacs. Thanks for sharing that pic, Carmine.

Yep 64 & 65 are by far the best of the GTO's... Nice car...

 

[skipxt4]

69 and 70's were NICE also, especially the "Judge"

 

[Iowa 409 Guy]

64 & 65 for me also. What year is Ray's?

64 & 65 for me also. What year is Ray's?

65, I think. I'm sure he will respond when he sees this.

Pretty sure I can handle that goat with my Delray!

 

[Fathead Racing]

I am the caretaker of a 65 GTO, three deuces and a four speed 389. Woo woo! Royal Bobcat.

GTOs are neat cars for sure. But a properly prepped 409 vs a 389 is no match. The 409 wins hands down. Ask the guy that wanted to run my car last summer how his gorgeous restored GTO faired against my low buck barge LOL!

Git-em Jason. Ronnie (and the Daytona's) won't be happy.

Loud mouth, trying to talk to me as we are driving. Gorgeous car. Telling me something about how fast his is blah blah blah. He downshifts and guns it mid sentence to try and catch me off guard so he gets an easy jump. SO I downshift too as quick as I can and reel him in like a bluegill and keep on going. I slow down to give him a thumbs up since it was still fun even tho technically he cheated only this time he's not so mouthy. Window rolled up and he's driving along like its a sunday stroll and I'm not next to him. Thats OK pal

 

[Don Jacks]

Jason,Did you tell this dummy that his ass just got whipped by a truck motor? [His engine actually started life as a truck engine and still uses the stock block,333 heads,and crankshaft.]

 

[yellow wagon]

He already got a lesson in humility. Figured that was good enough. I've learned that with owning a W motor, most people you come across are know it alls...listening to their conversations is actually pretty funny. They wouldn't listen to what I had to say even if their ears did work!
