AutoHunter Spotlight: 1965 Pontiac GTO

Featured inautomatic hunterThe online auction platform powered by ClassicCars.com is offering this 1965 Pontiac GTO two-door hardtop. Power comes from a rebuilt 389 engine with added Tri-Power and paired with a wide-ratio four-speed manual transmission. Notable features include Safe-T-Track, rally gauge cluster, custom sport steering wheel, AM push-button radio and reverse lights, among others. This Goat is finished in Capri Gold over a matching Gold interior and is supplied by the selling dealer and includes service records from when new, PHS documentation, Protect-O-Plate, original booklets and manuals, and clear Massachusetts ownership.

The original Capri Gold tone was repainted in the past, but the original beige vinyl top was retained. Exterior features include a non-functioning hood, driver’s side mirror, reverse lights and manual antenna.

A set of 14-inch Rally I wheels are wrapped in 215/70 Milestar Touring radials.

The cabin is trimmed in gold vinyl and features front bucket seats. The four-speed manual transmission with Hurst shifter sits on the floor without a console, just as it was originally ordered. Other interior features include a three-spoke custom sport steering wheel, power steering and push-button AM radio.

The instrument panel includes a 120-mph speedometer, an 8,000-rpm tachometer, and gauges for oil pressure, temperature, battery, and fuel level. The odometer shows 20,395 miles, but the actual mileage is 120,395.

The original “WT” 389 quad was rebuilt after 110,000 miles and now features Tri-Power upgrades. It is connected to an M20 wide-ratio four-speed gearbox.

This GTO has independent front suspension and a solid rear axle, with 3.23 gears and Safe-T-Track (Pontiac-branded limited-slip differential). Other features include power brakes and a dual exhaust system.
