THE PONTIAC GTO IS CONSIDERED BY
MANY TO BE THE FIRST TRUE MUSCLE CAR. WHERE OTHER
MANUFACTURERS WERE CONCENTRATING ON THEIR FULLSIZE LINES, 1964 SAW PONTIAC
DROPPING
A BIG BLOCK ENGINE INTO AN INTERMEDIATE FRAME & SELLING IT AT A BUDGET
PRICE.
PONTIAC HAD SNEAKED PASS THE GM RESTRICTION ON THIS COMBINATION BY MAKING
THE GTO AN OPTION ON THE TEMPEST MODEL, CREATING ONE OF THE HOTTEST
PERFORMANCE AMERICAN MUSCLE MACHINES EVER. 1966 WAS THE
FIRST YEAR PONTIAC MADE THE GTO IT'S OWN MODEL & SALES WERE THE HIGHEST
EVER FOR A TRUE MUSCLE CAR.
IN 1969, THE GTO HAD ALREADY GONE THROUGH MANY REVISIONS. PSYCHEDELIA
COLORED THE MUSCLECAR
LANDSCAPE WITH WILD PAINT & STRIPE SCHEMES AND SCOOPS ON TOP OF SCOOPS BUT
IT WAS THE
PREMIUM MODELS, LIKE THE GTO, THAT RECEIVED THE MOST ATTENTION.
