1967 Pontiac GTO Coupe

Description:

1967 Pontiac GTO Coupe

The Pontiac GTO became known as "The Goat" due to an interpretation of the letters that make up its name. Figuratively speaking, the car's "defiant, stripped to the basics personality" also had a hand in cementing the moniker, according to Edmunds.com. It is speculated that the acronym GTO, which stands for Gran Turismo Omologato, was taken from the Ferrari 250 GTO. American consumers have a history of shortening the names of cars with multiple syllables, and this likely influenced the nickname of this Pontiac brand. "The Goat" is catchy, easy to remember and was essentially born out of convenience.

We often say here at Classic Auto Mall you never know what is going to show up at the door on a daily basis, and when this beauty arrived, we all just smiled and pushed each other out of the way to do our test track drive! With a complete restoration and engine rebuild it has plenty of the luster, bark, and bite of the original version. This garage kept beauty comes with its PHS documentation and shows 88,597 miles which cannot be verified as actual due to the title reading Mileage Exempt. Read on my friends, and let's grab this tiger by the tail!

Exterior
This writer's favorite version of the venerable GTO, the Pontiac division got it all right this year. Stacked dual headlights framed with pristine mirror like bezels flank a woven wire chromed grille with signal lights and GTO badging, and a lower bumper with nary a mark or dimple on it. The hood forms the Pontiac "beak" in the center and breaks the grille in half. Looking down the line towards the rear we can see only straight steel, well minded gaps, and miles of Montreux Blue paint covering broken up by a lower stainless rocker cover again with the GTO badge up front next to the wheel well. Side view mirrors and door handles as well as glass surrounds add to the shine. A long straight scooped hood backs up to clean glass all around all framed by shiny polished trim. Moving to the back a long laser straight trunk lid curves downward to the foursome of horizontal thin rear tail light clusters, and more gorgeous framing of chromed trim and a snappy rear bumper. There are paint jobs and there are PAINT JOBS and this is certainly the latter, just buffed out to a luxurious gleam and smooth as glass all around save for a few areas of chip offs. The body and paint was performed for the previous owner as a personal favor by Barry Hayes. You've gotta love those flying buttress B pillars that frame the rear glass deep set within them. 15-inch Pontiac Rally II wheels are all around and sport some argent accenting, PMD center caps and polished trim rings all wrapped in red stripe Coker Classic radials.

Interior
There are interiors and then there is this interior...wow...the perfect compliment to the blue exterior is Parchment, and we have miles of it here. The door panels, front buckets, and rear bench are like new. A wood appliqu© covers the center console which races through the front buckets making room for a Hurst His/Hers shifter and goes forward hiding under the original dash. More perfect wood appliqu© for the gauge cluster, and center panel which houses the airflow levers and the factory AM radio. For the perfect contrast, a black padded topper hovers above and a black plastic 3 spoke steering wheel fronts the appliqu©. A duo of aftermarket gauges hangs below the dash and provides more driver input as to the vitals of when this car is off and running. Black carpet floods the floors, protected by black rubber arrowhead emblazoned mats as well as a Parchment headliner floats above all this interior beauty.

Drivetrain
A lift of the hood, and we are being stared at with the steely blue gaze of the restored engine block and intake manifold, and its chromed valve coverings. This is not original to the car and is a YS coded 1971 400ci V8 pumping out 300hp as per the factory rating. This mill was built by Spotts Performance and is topped off by a pair of 670 casting number cylinder heads. There is a 4-barrel carburetor on top and a rebuilt by Gene Drugan TH400 3-speed automatic bolted to the back. The rear axle codes out at 3.55 Safe-T-Track 10 bolt axle, (YH stamping code), however our consignor states this is a 3.36 geared axle. Dual exhaust and a Pypes muffler system provides the purr and a beautiful job in this clean engine bay.

Undercarriage
Miles of clean black undercoated steel down below. All restored, all clean with only the slightest amount of road dirt and surface rust on the untreated components. The front suspension is independent coil springs and the rear is a 4 link w coil springs. Power drum brakes are on all 4 corners and the only seepage we note is on the oil pan and torque converter cover.

Drive-Ability
As mentioned, myself and my decoder/muscle car expert/all around good guy were clamoring to take it for a test and it certainly did not disappoint. This baby lit right up, had an awesome exhaust tune, and ran just fab! It handled nicely, gave great acceleration, and showed good bias free braking. The horn did not honk, the clock did not keep time, the wipers did not wipe, and the reverse lights didn't glow. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.

A true highlight and if you are even a lukewarm fan of the GTO a must see when visiting the ever changing halls of the expansive and very impressive Classic Auto Mall. A nicely preserved paint job, and a well buttoned up restoration worth its weight in muscle car gold, (although it's Montreux Blue!).
