This is an authentic, matching numbers 1965 Pontiac GTO Hardtop. Many enthusiasts consider ’65 to be the best year for this muscle car icon. With their snarling V8s, aggressive stance, and handsome lines, the early GTOs were in a class of their own. “Hotrods” had always been popular with the bad-ass crowd, but the GTO introduced the world to the concept of the big, fast, bad-ass ride that you could order direct from the dealer—what we now know as the muscle car category.

While the car needs significant restoration before it’s ready for shows, its originality makes it a strong, investment-grade restoration candidate that can be enjoyed on the road and will only appreciate if properly maintained. We offer restoration services and we’re happy to walk you through some different options on this GTO. Fully restored, these cars are trading at $45,000-$55,000 or higher based on the quality of the restoration.  We have the equipment, the experience, and the team to do this work right. If you want to invest $45,000 in this legendary vehicle and make it your own, we will restore it to your spec, from barn-find status to show-winner. If you want a cruise-ready muscle car on a $20,000 budget, we can do that, too. If you want the car the way it is so that you can do the work yourself, we’re looking for $12,500. Check out the photos, read the ad, and let us know which direction you would like to take this project.

This particular example was assembled in Pontiac’s Michigan plant in early January 1965 and remains highly original throughout. Under the hood, it retains its original 389 cubic inch V8 and automatic transmission, and the interior appears to be all-original as well. We believe that the car has been painted twice since leaving the Pontiac plant, and it’s definitely due for a new paint job. Surface rust and paint bubbling are found in the usual places, (lower quarter panels, trunk lid, rockers, around windshield). In general, though, the body is in good, restorable condition. The interior is original and functional, but the upholstery throughout should be refreshed. New vinyl on the sport bucket seats would bring a lot of magic back to this GTO. Underneath, the car will need some attention, too. The floor pans should be replaced and the frame needs some repair in the rear. We are currently working through the mechanics of the car, but the cars runs and drives strong.  We just rebuilt the carburator and are doing a minor tune up.  The video will be available in a couple of days.

Give us a call to discuss the car in detail and tell us how we can put you into your dream car. Matching number GTOs don’t come along often, and this is a chance to configure an authentic muscle car icon to your own specification at a reasonable price. Let’s rock ‘n roll!!

At our dealership we work very hard to accurately describe our vehicles through text descriptions and elaborate photos. When you purchase a pre-owned vehicle it is not a new vehicle. Any used vehicle can have normal wear and blemishes. Before placing a bid please read the descriptions thoroughly and view all pictures.  Feel free to call our Sales Hotline at (603) 818-8511 for a "walk around" verbal description of each vehicle we have in our warehouse. 

Also, please keep in mind that we specialize in cars older than 25 model years and we do our absolute best to represent these cars in a direct, honest, and fair manner with over 100 pictures for each car along with a video to let you see the car move and hear the car run.  Our written ads reflect both the fact that we really love these cars and feel that we are saving a part of America.  We do our best to describe some of the features that you might find important.  As a buyer of a car that is older than 25 model years, unless the car is represented as perfect (which our cars are not), you need to be aware that there are many smaller things that may or may not work, or may work one day and not the next, in these cars.  This is due to the fact that they are over 25 years old.  When bidding on a car please keep this in mind.
