1966 Pontiac GTO                                                  in                                  Volo,                                  Illinois1

  There's only 1,160 mi on this high-end custom build of this real

  GTO. This is World of Wheels type quality, it's as polished

  underneath as it is on top. Wait 'til you sit inside and smell the

  leather interior. Of course, shifting those gears and opening up

  all 3 carbs will have you grinning ear to ear too!

  EXTERIOR: Is this body made out of blue glass, because that's what

  it looks like! It's literally straight as a laser beam head to toe.

  The Cobalt Blue paint is polished like a mirror, it looks like you

  could dive right into it. All the chrome and trim is either new or

  restored. The power antenna retracts out of sight. All the glass

  has been replaced. It has a great stance with some knockout

  staggered size Billet Specialties wheels. They're 18s in front, 20s

  in back and wrapped in some performance tires.

  INTERIOR: Have you ever been in a boot shop in Nashville? That's

  what the interior smells like! All genuine cowhide leather custom

  stitched upholstery. Very comfortably bolstered seats, custom

  molded door panels, custom made console and even the dash pad are

  wrapped in leather with white stitching. There are even some

  embroidered logos. Overhead has an Alcantara perforated headliner

  and visors. New carpet down on the floor with embroidered mats. It

  has a restored factory instrument panel with the Rallye gauge

  cluster including a tachometer. A Pontiac retro stereo fits in the

  factory hole and it has 4 speakers. Heater control panel is

  upgraded with a modern Vintage Air unit. New reproduction deluxe

  wheel is on a tilt polished column. Ron Francis wiring and fuse

  panel. I like the cupholders in the console, but I like the 5-speed

  shifter the best!

  ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Wow, the engine bay is as slick as the car

  including the smooth firewall. At the heart of it is a 421 power

  plant with Tri-Power carbs on top making 370+ hp. It has ceramic

  coated intake and H.O. exhaust manifolds. The front of the motor

  has a billet runner system including the brackets, pulleys chrome

  alternator, mini polished AC compressor and modern power steering

  with a remote reservoir. It also has a polished power brake system.

  All the hoses are braided stainless, the hardware is polished

  stainless. The Auto Rad polished aluminum radiator and overflow

  bottle with dual electric fans keeps it cool. The motor is dressed

  nicely with shiny parts!

  TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It is boxed and upholstered to match the

  interior. Under the trunk lid and the jamb is painted as slick as

  the car. There is a CD changer, and the battery is hidden behind

  the panel.

  UNDERSIDE: It's painted as smooth as the top. You think I'm

  kidding, take a look for yourself. The body was off the frame, the

  floors are all pristine rust-free metal painted the same color as

  the car. All the chassis was prepped and painted gloss black. The

  suspension and steering have been completely rebuilt and upgraded.

  In front it has a fatter sway bar and Hotchkiss adjustable tie

  rods. In back it has a Hotchkiss sport system with boxed control

  arms, extra tubular bracing, and a sway bar. It also has air

  shocks. Great sounding dual exhaust system with Flowmaster

  mufflers. The custom stainless fuel tank is polished like chrome.

  The brakes are completely upgraded with drilled and slotted disc at

  all four wheels with polished Wilwood calipers. It also has a

  custom e-brake system. The battery is located in the trunk so there

  are jumper leads and a master disconnect switch under the car.

  Looking up at the motor it has a chrome oil pan and a high torque

  starter. A heavy duty bellhousing connects to a Keisler trans

  package that includes a Tremec 5-speed transmission and hydraulic

  clutch. A rebuilt driveshaft goes back to a heavy duty Ford 9-inch

  rear end with posi gears.

  SERVICE: We ran the car through our shop and fixed the horn,

  rebuilt the carbs, charged the a/c, replaced the heater control

  panel, adjusted the heat shields on the manifolds, replaced the

  tachometer, took it in for a front end alignment, replace a brake

  light socket and lubed the window tracks.

  Simply incredible! The fit and finishes throughout are top notch.

  The new owner of this GTO will be very proud to show it off. The

  best fun will be when he or she is out shifting gears!

  I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for

  virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant

  amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my

  professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to

  assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are

  answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video

  that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are

  displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an

  appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment

  there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car,

  your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year

  membership.
