Nice ... I would expect he has something else for normal use
especially in Michigan winter time.

I asked him about that. Apparently these are a very rare factory option for GTOs.

There's a darker Pontiac blue that's much better, and Chevy used to have a Red that looked good.

true, factory.

I was looking at 67 GTO's, some 442's but decided on a 66 Mustang GT. They are nice cars but huge.

Be careful on those tires as I am sure they are over 6 years old, may blow out on you at any time :eek:

long gone now (it was my first car) but the 390 wasn't offered in 66. 289 'K' was the best you could do. Mine was not a K, but made more horsepower due to using modern components.

Well my dad got a 65 GT fastback shell and had everything transfered over. I bought myself out of it and got a 1988 GT with T-Tops. I still hear about this 20 years later. :)

but not period correct for the car, Pontiac switched to a darker blue in late 72 mid 73. All before were baby blue.

I don't like having my 461 painted that way, but I like having poncho power and not GM power.

Awesome ride. My algebra teacher, a 70 year old sarcastic black woman, had a GTO. That thing was pure sex.
