For Sale: 1966 Pontiac GTO in Rogers, Minnesota for sale in Rogers, MN
Vehicle Description This 1966 Pontiac GTO is a real deal GTO with numerous tasteful performance upgrades that make this muscle car an absolute blast to drive! Back in 1964, few could have predicted the success the GTO would experience and its immense influence across the entire automotive industry.
The the Pontiac Motor Division debuted the GTO back in '64, it was merely an option package for the LeMans.
The idea behind this GTO package was rooted in the idea of placing one of the biggest engines that Pontiac had to offer and placing it into one of the smallest, and least expensive, Pontiac bodies.
The result was performance-oriented vehicle that would not only become an instant hit but also launch America into the muscle car era! After its two years of being an option package, Pontiac spun off the the GTO in 1966 into its own separate model line within PMD.
While the dual stacked headlights would remain on the '66 GTOs, General Motors' A-Body platform was substantially redesigned.
With new Coke Bottle body lines and a fresh new wire mesh grille design, the 1966 GTO had a new silhouette and an updated look up front.
At the rear, the taillight design was updated and now consisted of the triple stacked louvered design that was used in 1966 only.
The GTO nameplate would also be found around the exterior of the car including inside the grille, on the fenders and the rear deck lid.
The particular GTO comes to us after having spent time in the hands of southern-based collectors who clearly took great care of the car while under their stewardship.
Powering this '66 GTO is an upgraded 428 Cubic Inch V8 engine paired with an Edelbrock single 4 barrel carburetor.
The dressed up engine compartment also features several upgrades including an aluminum intake manifold, Mallory electronic ignition system, and Moroso chrome valve covers and air cleaner.
Exhaust exits the 428 block via a set of Hooker headers and out through a dual exhaust setup that has a nice meaty sound out the rear.
The 428 NOM V8 is backed by a 4 speed manual transmission that is shifted using a floor-mounted Hurst shifter, making this classic Pontiac muscle car an absolute blast to drive.
The suspension has also been upgraded with coilovers in all four corners along with traction bars in the rear.
Front disc brakes were added to provide improved stopping power, especially with all that extra horsepower under the hood.
Riding on a set of polished American Racing rims with raised letter radial tires, this 1966 GTO has a great look and even better ride.
The chrome and brightwork around the exterior of this Pontiac GTO is in wonderful shape as well.
The body on this 1966 GTO has been refinished in a beautiful Montero Red that completes the exterior look of the car.
