Vehicle Detail
THE OVERVIEW OFFERRED FOR AN APPRECIATING NEW OWNER IS THIS RARE COLLECTIBLE CLASSIC 1966 PONTIAC GTO! Finished in white pearl over black interior, this 1966 GTO features the 400 cubic inch V8 engine with 4 barrel carb mated to the factory 4 speed manual transmission. It is a 99.9% rust-free example and an original code 242 car. It is not officially "munbers mayching" in that it has a 1968 400 engine]. It sports rallye wheels with good rubber, bucket seats with center console. It will be sold with clear and clean California with current registration. This car is smog-exempt in this state due to the year [pre-1976]. It comes with the original exhaust manifold and a few other extra parts. Overall this is a fabulous driver-quality example that will only appreciate in value!

THE BODY AND TRIM As I hope is articulated in the photos here, the body, trim and paint of this GTO are in very good to excellent condition overall with a few miscellaneous small blemishes, nicks, cracks and imperfections. There is a crack on the right side of the windshield, some hazing on the rear window glass as well. Overall I would rate this as a great looking "ten-footer" for sunny weekend drives or local car shows. THE INTERIOR The interior of this car is in very good condition overall! The gauges all work well, the five-digit odometer shows 11.XXX miles though the actual mileage of this car cannot be 100% verified. The horn is inop, the radio powers up with no sound, the heater hoses are not connected. . THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE This classic Pontiac starts, runs and drives very well with EXCELLENT BIG V8 POWER, firm and precise shifting with the 4 speed transmission, good braking with secure pedal feel and fairly confident handling. This car easily smokes the tires through the first two gears with a satisfyling American V8 rumble. NOTE: The carb is weak and could benefit from a rebuild which can be negotiated with purchase price. THE DETAILS AND $$$$$$ 1.
