1964 GTO Hardtop

Pontiac GTO 1964 Description

The legendary ’64 GTO was the top-selling first-year model in Pontiac history and is widely regarded as The One that kicked off that American muscle car movement in 60s. This original 2237 GTO hardtop has been meticulously restored inside and out and is immaculate. It features a high-end base coat clear coat two-tone paint job with white sides and blue metallic top and finished with 8 coats of urethane clear, et sanded and buffed to glass-like perfection.

This car was built in Fremont, alifornia and sold in Reno, evada, here it spent most of its life. We have the purchase documents from Winkel Motors, nc. in Reno. I purchased the car two years ago after finding it in a barn where it had been sitting in storage for 15 years. I just finished a two-year complete restoration from bumper to bumper and am ready to sell her so I can move on to my next project.

Being an original West Coast car, t had very little rust when we got it. We changed the floor and trunk pans but the car maintains its original doors, uarter panels, enders and hood. All new rubber gaskets, mblems, oor handles and key locks were installed.

The interior has a new complete factory interior, ncluding headliner and door panels, ew carpet and a new factory Pontiac Sport steering wheel. A custom-built center console was installed with gages and a B&M automatic shifter and we also added a new JVC stereo system, ven though the original factory-installed AM radio is still there.

The Pontiac 400ci engine, hich came from a 1970 Firebird, as completely rebuilt, ored 60 over with new pistons and mild cam. The heads have been completely redone. A new high torque starter and electronic ignition were installed as well as a new water pump, lternator and Holley fuel pump. We added a new chrome air cleaner, ew motor mounts, ew aluminum high rise intake with a new Edelbrock 4 barrel carburetor and new high polished aluminum radiator with shroud. To complete the package, new complete factory dual exhaust system with headers was installed.

The transmission is a 350 turbo, rofessionally rebuilt with a 1,800 stall convertor and B&M transmission kit with deep B&M chrome pan.

So, hat else is new? A new factory gas tank, ending unit and factory gas lines were installed. All new brake lines and brake system with brake booster and master cylinder plus all new front and rear shocks. New tires on 15x8 chrome 5-spoke wheels. New factory trunk floor mat, runk liner and hood insulator. New headlights. New front and rear wiring harnesses.

With only 150 miles on her since we finished the restoration, his is a great car that will draw non-stop looks, humbs-ups and compliments. To be sure, his is not your run-of-the-mill restoration job. On a scale of 1 to 10, he car is a 9.5, nly because it’s a non-numbers-matching car. With over $30,000 in documented receipts for this two-year restoration, o detail has been overlooked. When I say she is perfect inside and out, mean it. Even the undercarriage and engine compartment are pristine, hich is not the case with most restorations. This car is a show winner and runs unbelievably. It sounds just like a GTO should … mean … GR-RRR!
