The 64 GTO was the brain child of John DeLorean, Pete Estes, Jim Wangers, and a few others. Before the GTO the muscle car was full size cars with big engines. These cars were slow to get going but eventually got the job done. But all the true gear heads and hot rodders knew if you put a big engine in a smaller car the end result was speed and lower elapsed times. The Pontiac boys offered for the first time in 1964 a $295.00 GTO option. Putting a 389 CI in the light weight LeMans and the rest was history. Word spread quickly between all the car guys that finally someone had made a lighter car with the bigger engine that could be bought right off the showroom floor with different performance options that would suit everyone’s tastes. The muscle car was born. This ultra rares tiger carries a full set of PHS (Pontiac Historical Services) paperwork to prove this baby was born a real tri-power 4-speed GTO convertible. This piece of automotive history is ready to prowl the streets and car shows of America. Go back to where it all began. Often imitated but never duplicated 1964 GTO…THE FIRST MUSCLE CAR!!! YOU’VE SEEN THE REST, NOW BUY THE BEST!!!
