Candlelite Cream 1966 GTO hardtop owned by Kev Staalesen from New York. This was our Picture Of The Week for 3/16/03. Kev added, "This one was assembled in Pontiac Michigan during June of '66. My GTO includes all matching numbers, including correct casting dates (intake, carb, heads, block, etc). It has 107k on the body, 7k on the rebuilt motor. It's powered by the original YS code 389 V8, 335hp, 4 bbl carb, super-turbine 300 transmission (2sp) on the column (no console!), and a 3.23 non-posi 'one-wheel peel' rearend. Options are P/S, P/B, am radio, sepera-phonic rear speaker option, rear window defogger, wood wheel, cordova top, and deluxe wheel covers with whitewalls. That's it. 100% original, 100% GM. I also have all original dealer paperwork, manuals, etc., including the factory window sticker (attached to side glass in the attached pic). When I bought the GTO (sprng of 2000), it had Rally I wheels w/Hoosier street radial tires. I use those for 1/2 of the season, and then the steelies/wheelcover combo during the other 1/2." CLICK->
Candlelite Cream 1966 GTO hardtop, right front view. Kev has many old tigers. He commented, "I paid less than $10K for my first GTO 3 yrs ago, at age 28. This was how I rewarded myself for saving hard-cash for 2 yrs straight (tax return checks, profit-sharing checks, and any & all spare money that was leftover after the bills were paid!). It's SO much easier to save money, when there's a 'GTO-reward' at the end." CLICK->
