PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU CLICK ON THE VIDEO LINK AT THE END OF THIS AD TO SEE A DETAILED VIDEO OF THIS BEAUTIFUL GTO! In 2004 my wife and I attended a PONTIAC car show held at one of the major hotels. The guest speaker was none other than JIM WAGNERS. Jim was kind enough to autograph four cars at the show. We were lucky enough for our beloved GTO to be one of those four cars!! This GTO is autograped on the passenger sun visor and also on the under side of the deck lid. What an honor!! Please see the still pictures of Jim's autograph. In the fall of 1963, Pontiac’s chief marketing ad agency account manager, Jim Wangers, convinced Car and Driver editor David E. Davis to feature a new “GTO” option package for the 1964 Pontiac Tempest LeMans in the pages of the magazine. It hit newsstands with a cover image of the Pontiac Tempest GTO leading trailing its Ferrari namesake by a car length on an imaginary racetrack, and a muscle car performance legend was born. This Sunday, the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles will honor the 50th anniversary of the GTO with a cruise-in featuring a guest appearance by Wangers himself. Despite the imaginative cover shot, Car and Driver never really tested the Ferrari GTO against its namesake American upstart (it should be noted here that Special Interest Autos did in fact comparison test the pair, decades later in SIA #161), but based on published data was able to determine that the Italian GTO would dominate on a road course, while the American GTO would clean up at the drag strip. The magazine did put nearly 3,500 miles on a pair of GTOs provided by Pontiac for testing, including both performance runs at the Daytona International Speedway and a New York City-to-Daytona Beach highway run. The net result was glowing praise for the new Pontiac GTO, a car that should never have been built under GM’s existing anti-performance rules. I do not respond to e-mails or texts. My name is Russ and you can call me anytime with any questions you may have.
