1965 Pontiac GTO Convertible
Frame Off Build! # Matching 389ci V8, Tri-Power, 4-Speed, Baer Disc, Documented!
This beautiful GTO came to us from North Scottsdale, AZ. It was sold new on December 8, 1964. We purchased it from the 3rd owner, with many original docs including Sales Invoice, Warranty Book, Owners Manual, GMAC Contract, and PHS Docs. The Frame Off Restoration began with the original WS Code Pontiac 389ci V8 w/ 3x2 Tri-Power Carburetor Setup, backed up to a Muncie 4-Speed Manual Transmission, and all completely rebuilt. The frame was completely stripped and powdercoated. Paint color is Mercedes Silver with Black Interior, original Hurst Shifter with Console and Bucket Seats. All chrome and badging was sent to a high end chrome shop. Suspension upgrades include Tubular Upper & Lower Control Arms, Coilover Shocks, and Front & Rear Stabilizers. Brake Upgrades include new Baer Brakes on all 4 Corners with Torque Thrust 17" Wheels. The convertible top was replaced with a high end "Hartz Cloth" Top similar to the fabric used in many new luxury convertibles. Other upgrades include Tilt Steering Column, March Pulley Setup, Power Steering, Power Brakes, and Classic Auto A/C. This restoration was aimed at retaining most of the original appearance of a classic GTO while utilizing modern components for better driving. The book of documentation is extremely thick and you can tell the complete cars history using the documentation.
