THE PONTIAC GTO IS CONSIDERED BY
MANY AS THE FIRST TRUE MUSCLE CAR. IN 1964, WHEN OTHER
MANUFACTURERS WERE CONCENTRATING ON THEIR FULL SIZE LINES, PONTIAC SAW
THE POTENTIAL
FOR DROPPING A BIG BLOCK ENGINE INTO AN INTERMEDIATE FRAME & MARKETING
IT AT A BUDGET PRICE.
PONTIAC SNEAKED PASSED 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.
UNFORTUNATELY, THE REALITY OF THE TIMES IN 1970 WAS THAT THE AMERICAN
MUSCLE CAR'S MOMENT IN THE SUN BECAME DARKENED WITH CLOUDS OF GOVERNMENT
EMISSIONS INTERVENTION ALONG WITH INSURANCE AGENTS
APPLYING RIDICULOUS SURCHARGES TO POLICIES WRITTEN ON MUSCLE CARS SOLD
TO UNDER-25-YEAR-OLD BUYERS.
