Way before John Zachary DeLorean would go on to build futuristic cars that doubled as time machines, he was cutting his teeth with General Motors. One of his most notable creations is the Pontiac GTO, which he named after the Ferrari 250 GTO, and created with Bill Collins and Russ Gee. An innovative way to get around GM’s top management banning divisions from participating in motor racing, the GTO was meant to create accessible street performance that customers could, then, take racing themselves. Spanning four generations, the GTO’s fifth generation was admittedly less than stellar, involving a re-badged Holden Monaro. That makes earlier cars, such as this first-generation 1964 Pontiac GTO all the more desirable, and with just 60,357 miles on the clock, plus a host of refreshments and modifications reported by the seller, a car not to be missed. Don’t let this one slip through your fingers if you’ve always lusted after a GTO.
The first GTO was actually a trim and option package for Pontiac’s Le Mans model, and came with a host of enhancements, inside and out. That means that this 1964 Pontiac GTO should rightfully be called a Pontiac Le Mans GTO, but that just doesn’t sound right, does it? Based on the Tempest platform, this particular GTO wears a Gulfstream Alfa paintjob with the seller reporting that the front and rear bumpers have been re-chromed, the floor pan has been given the Rhino Liner treatment, and new American Racing wheels installed, wrapped with, you guessed, it, new tires. No wonder it looks in great shape. Venture aboard and the seller reports more refurbishments for the Gulfstream Aqua interior, including new accessory gauges, Dynamat liners, carpet, upholstery, and headliner. You’ve got a ventilation system and push button radio too, for that pristine period feel.
The engine room of this 1964 Pontiac GTO plays host to a 389ci V8 that’s been bored out to 409ci, no doubt enhancing its power over the already impressive factory 325hp figure. Drive goes to the rear wheels via a two-speed Super Turbine 300 automatic transmission and a reportedly new Positraction 308 rear end. The seller also reports a host of new things under the skin, including new suspension, four wheel disc brakes, exhaust, brake lines, gas lines, gas tank, radiator, dual electric fans, and electronic ignition, making this a practical classic that you can rely on.
Born from the desire to be free of corporate constraint, the Pontiac GTO is a lesson in defiance. It shows what happens when men figure out a way to rage against the corporate machine in a creative way. You see, General Motors had banned their auto divisions from competing in auto racing for some ridiculous reason. However, executives such as John Z. DeLorean, Russ Gee and Bill Collins knew that this was outrageous. They felt the desire to find a way to buck the rules, and they easily found it. Because why not give customers a turn-key racer that’s thinly veiled as a street car? After all, you can’t control how your customers use your car once they’ve paid the purchase price and driven off the lot, can you? Hence, the GTO was born, with a name inspired by a Ferrari legend. Today, we have a 1965 Pontiac GTO for sale from Evansville, Wisconson. This symbol of rebelliousness is available with under 100,000 miles on the clock, a 389 Tri-Power under the hood and a Muncie 4-speeder taking care of shifting. If you want it in your life, don’t waste any more time, talk to us!
"They don't make them like they used to." This is a line that is thrown around a lot to signify that things were better in the good old days. While most find this particular line to be overly enthusiastic, there is some truth to certain aspects. Present today is one of those times where "They don't make them like they used to" applies perfectly and takes shape with this 1970 Pontiac GTO. With a reported 500 miles on its clock, this classic muscle is a looker and is ready to throw it back to the good old days of motoring.
A symbol of rebellion against the corporate machine, the Pontiac GTO was the cheeky result of General Motors banning their divisions from competing in auto racing in 1963. Three plucky gents, namely Bill Collins, Russ Gee and John Z. DeLorean weren’t pleased. However, these three smarts realized that while they couldn’t officially compete in racing, there was nothing to stop them from making thinly-veiled racing machines that could be sold to customers, to do as they pleased. Hence, the GTO was born in 1963, with a name inspired by the legendary Ferrari 250 GTO. Based on the Pontiac Tempest, it saw a large V8 stuffed under the hood and some neat performance upgrades. Today, we’ve got a 1971 Pontiac GTO for sale from Schenectady, New York. It’s done 80,462 miles and comes with a nice 400ci V8 to enjoy, paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox.

Pontiac, founded in 1926 was responsible for many all-American heroes of the automotive scene. Names such as Firebird, GTO, Bonneville, Tempest and Fiero are still held in high regard today. Sadly, the Pontiac division was shut down by GM in 2010. In their later years, they continued to create an interesting car every now and then. The Solstice was one of them, a compact two-door convertible sports car that was made between 2006 and 2010. That’s what we have here, a 2006 Pontiac Solstice Roadster from San Antonio, Texas. It’s got a 2.4-liter Ecotec 4-cylinder, a convertible top, and is rear-wheel drive as you’d expect from any self-respecting sports car. With just over 35,000 miles on the odometer, this curio could be yours!
Pontiac’s Firebird is an iconic car. It was made between 1967 and 2002 across four generations, and the sister car of Chevy’s Camaro. Notably, the second and third generations of Firebird had significant screen presences, in the shape of featuring prominently on Smokey and the Bandit (second generation), as well as Knight Rider (third generation). It’s no surprise, given that the second-generation’s muscular and pumped-up looks lent itself well to star alongside Burt Reynolds, while the third generation’s sleek computer-graphics esque design was perfect to be the car of the future – talking and all. Today, we’ve got a nice second-generation 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am for sale from The Villages, Florida. This machine has got the Oldsmobile 403ci V8 under the hood, and rolls on a set of aftermarket Snowflake wheels. We’re also informed that the interior has been reupholstered.
