Red 1966 GTO front end view owned by Jeff Farve from Missoula, Montana. Here's what Jeff has to say, "The car was a complete wreck when I got it but two years of work and it looks like this. I tried to do as much of the work myself as I could. It has a bored 400, #16 heads, 4-speed, hooker headers, flowmasters, all new interior, trunk pans, hotchkis springs, PST polygraphite bushings and sway bars. This car drives better than it looks. It's a favorite at the shows and always wins."CLICK->

1966 gold GTO with a black vinyl top featured in this vintage two page magazine ad. The car picture has the rare red fender liner option. The ad states, "To all the other cars from the GTO: What's new, pussycats?"Pontiac often used tigers or references to tigers in their ads. Former Pontiac marketing man Jim Wangers tells a story about an incident when they tried to use a tiger in a TV advertisement. They were filming a 1966 GTO commercial when they put a tiger in a car. Something spooked it and it just went nuts. Everybody on the filming crew ran away and after about 20 minutes, the tiger tired itself out and the animal trainer was able to get it back in the cage. The car interior was damaged. Unfortunately, nobody left their camera on, so the episode wasn't caught on film. CLICK-> 
Vintage magazine ad for the 1966 GTO. The text in the ads during this era made for interesting reading. They were usually bold and
written in a hip style. This ad states, "Speak softly and carry a GTO." |
