Pontiac’s GTO was born out of the spirit of defiance in the face of unreasonable corporate wrangling. You see, General Motors banned their auto divisions from participating in racing. This 1963 decision was driven by a voluntary ban in 1957 by the Automobile Manufacturers Association. Naturally, engineers, stylists and executives within the divisions weren’t happy – as you would be, naturally. After all, these were true petrolheads being strangled by suited-sorts who didn’t have the same passion as they did. Three gentlemen, namely John Z. DeLorean, Bill Collins and Russ Gee hatched a plan. They figured that while they couldn’t go auto racing as a brand, why not give customers a thinly-veiled race machine to do as they pleased with? Hence, the GTO was born in 1964, with a name directly inspired by the legendary Ferrari 250 GTO. Five generations of GTO have been made so far, and we’ve got a nice first-generation example available in Grosse Point Farms, Michigan right now. Check out this 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible that’s a symbol of the undying American spirit of innovation, and it’s a great find that’s not to be missed!
Draped in Linden Green, this 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible sports a black convertible top that seamlessly retracts to provide all occupants with infinite amounts of sun and sky. The car’s sleek profile is beautiful, to say the least. It’s a symbol of the Sixties with its red-striped tires, chrome wheel covers, chrome bumpers and stacked dual headlamps. The interior of this 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible features black leather upholstery and wood trim adorning the center console and dashboard. The car appears to have the Rally Pack gauge cluster which brings a tachometer as well. The center console is also home to a period correct push-button radio and some auxiliary gauges mounted lower down.
Lurking beneath the hood of this 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible is a brawny 400ci V8. The 400-4 unit uses a 4-barrel carburetor and reportedly makes over 300 horsepower. Rear-wheel drive is standard, via a 3-speed automatic gearbox. This Turbo-Hydramatic TH-400 unit features a unique shift quadrant and is called the ‘His and Hers Shifter’. That’s because you can stick it into Drive for a fully automatic experience, or slide it over to the right and manually shift gears at will.
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.

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 has always been a somewhat performance-oriented brand, even in dark times like the Malaise Era. Their Firebird muscle/pony car was severely strangled due to this dark time, but Pontiac cheerfully changed direction. Of course they kept the Firebird, but introduced something else too. This was the Fiero, made between 1984 and 1988. Unlike most other Pontiacs, the Fiero was a compact two-door sports car with a mid-mounted engine, composite body panels and an economical outlook. In subsequent times, Fieros found an unlikely purpose as the base of many faux Ferrari transformations. Thankfully, stock examples do remain, like this West Palm Beach-located 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT. It’s up for sale with under 69,000 miles on the clock, a 2.8-liter V6 in the rear, and an automatic gearbox. Contact us if you’d like to make it your own.

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!
In 1953, Chevrolet introduced a car that would shake up the American sports car market. Yes, the Corvette was born that year. With breathtaking styling by Harley Earl, this iconic sports car initially came with a six-cylinder engine that was definitely unsuitable for such an amazing piece of automotive art and mechanical excellence. So, Chevy rectified the mistake by 1955 with the introduction of the Small-Block V8. Initially displacing 265ci, it grew to a 327ci unit by 1962. That’s what we have in this 1957 Chevrolet Corvette, with its 327ci V8 that packs dual quad carburetors and a reported output of 400 horseower. This Washington-based car also comes with its original interior, as well as original Corvette wheels. If you want a special classic Corvette that’s definitely going to be valuable for years to come, talk to us right now.
