My Dad bought this Pontiac new in 1965. My mom drove us to school in it. It's been garaged since new and is still in amazing condition. My dad takes me out for a ride on a sunny day. ******IMPORTANT NOTE!!******* I have been asked dozens of times...the OTHER CAR in the garage is a 65 Chevy Impala 2 dr HT, 283/Auto. It has since been SOLD! The GTO is not for sale, but I am going to do another video with more details coming soon...Thank you all for the interest!

I had the almost exact GTO; 3 Deuce Tri-power; Close ratio 4-speed; 3.90 Posi traction, same color but with the darker blue interior; P/S P/B - no A/C. But was the 1966 Model. Mother bought it in 08/1966 from her cousin; less than 4,000 miles on the clock. He was a Corvette guy. Still has about 5 or 6 earlies from the 60's down in Biloxi. $3,000 CASH. Lucky me .....Senior in Rutherford H/S in PANAMA CITY, FLORIDA. Dad in Vietnam killing the enemy; my Mom drove the family Pontiac Bonneville. I'm lucky to still be alive. Kept about 2 years. Eventually hit the local drag strip. Best bona fide time was a 13.98 @ 104 MPH. TRUE STORY. If you weren't there, and not alive in those days - YOU JUST MISSED THE BOAT YA'LL.

The 64 was a lot lighter, and so a little quicker, but the 65 was the best styling of all. I love both years. My dad was a Buick dealer in those years, but was almost a Pontiac/Cadillac dealer, instead. Anyway, it's kinda too bad, because his initials were GTO.

@@1940limited BTW, my dad, who was a Buick dealer, had narcolepsy. Not too many knew what that was in years past, so medication for it was not really available. Anyway, In the mid 60's he fell asleep twice while driving home on the hwy, (hwy 66, incidentally)from his business, which was about 100 miles from our home at the time. Once, it happened in a brand new Riviera, and once in an Electra 225, both cars were pretty much totalled, but my dad walked away, fortunately. My mom never even knew, and she's 96 now, and she still doesnt know. To the end of his days, my dad pretty much always insisted that we all drive big, heavy cars, because of the safety they provide.

SWEET! I turned 16 in '72. I was from a very large farm family, even owned land and cattle myself by then, but didn't have much say over my money. I'd learned if I had an in-town job that my father couldn't say much about those earnings. At 17 I had gone to work for a friends dads grocery store, flexible hours for planting and harvest seasons. I also had 3 cars by then, 2 street/strip cars-that shouldn't have been legal for the street-and a '67 LTD. Every Sunday morning a school mates mom shopped and seemed to be at my register so I'd bag and carry her items to the car. She had a '65 that was EXACTLY equipped identically to your fathers, but white. I think she came to the one I worked because she knew I'd praise and try to buy that car every time I walked up to it. I've never really been a Pontiac nor even a GM fan, but I liked that car. Anyone can appreciate what your Dad has done with this treasure.

I can tell your dad is an exceptional driver just by how he handles the steering wheel. When cornering I saw he did not use the "washing the dishes technique", instead using both hands to turn the wheel in increments not going hand over hand. Then I noticed that his hands were positioned at the 9 and 3 positions, instead of using one hand at 12 o'clock a lot of drivers do. Great shifting technique and very smooth. Bravo Zulu to your dad with that masterpiece of a car.

Unfortunately, he 'blew' the camshaft in a year & a half, but it was still under the warranty,so they had to fix it for free! After that, he had trouble making the payments & it was repossessed, I think! I had a 1964 Pontiac Tempest,(a cheap version) & kept it 16 years! Still, the 1965 was probably one of the most beautiful cars made in the 1960's!

Wow fantastic ! Beautiful car. Now picture this car in fire engine red in a convertible [white top], red interior, with the same equipment, 389, tri power, 4 speed, 3.90 gears, red line tires and that was my first brand new car back in June 65 . Ordered the car in Feb 65 but the 3.90 gears were not in production at the time and had to wait almost 3 extra months for them. If I recall, the standard rear end gear package with the tri power was 4.33's and I didn't want that stiff a rear gear so I waited for the 3.90's. Only had the car for 5 months, traded it in Dec 65 cause I got 3 speeding tickets in 4 1/2 months and figured I better send the 'cop magnet' down the road. I did and I was sorry afterwards. Also had a loaded 67 GTO ragtop I owned for 4 years and traded that one too. Another big mistake. I traded my 67 in on a rare 71 Chevelle Malibu 400 ragtop I have owned now over 52 years. [mulsanne blue, 402ciBB, 4 speed, 3.31 12 bolt posi rear, 32K miles]. I'll never get rid of this car. Good luck with your 65 GOAT, a timeless classic.

Greeting from just north of Pontiac, where these were engineered and built. As a kid I had the promo poster of the '64' blue GTO on my wall. The '65' was a perfect improvement. The Pontiac tri power had a tendency to lock up wide open with out meticulous maintenance. Dad had a '60' Bonneville convertible we crashed cause of that problem. But man, Pontiac was building excitement, not just with these, but the whole line from here, Michigan performance magic. 'Smoke em if you got em!' Dreamcruise is coming!

Nice!!! It brings back memories. My dad was also a Pontiac man. As I became of age to drive, he owned a 1962 Star Chief. It had the 389, but an automatic. That car would flat out scream. I would push the RPM's manually going through the gears and it was something I'll always remember. I blew right by several buddies who thought they had Hot cars. I eventually was handed the keys for my H. S. graduation present. Awesome!!!

In high school I had a 66 Ventura 389 2 barrel and that moved pretty good too for a big car.

Brings back great memories of the 60s muscle cars i cruised around back then. Had a '67 SS396/350 Chevelle. ALL those 60s muscle cars were fabulous. Man, what I like to have this beautiful car.

It`s almost a dream seeing this type of ride, by the original owner himself... Absolutely outstanding and unique, and I`m sure this Gentelman receiving a lot of mails coming from potential costumers and buyers. Specialy amazed because all original elements on the car since new, and more respectable you guys never touched the engine. A loving 56 years care, itself pays the bill and worth it. Congratulations, God bless you and keep it riding. Awesome.

Amazing condition for your dad's GOAT. Beautiful color and its a..4 speed!!!!! I was..introduced to muscle cars in a '67 Ram Air III GOAT with..open Hooker headers at age 12. Still remember the smell of the burnt tires, all the smoke filling the interior and how..hard the car pulled while still...sideways, slithering up the road. Never recovered from that..1st ride. Nothing like "healthy" V8 cars. All the best to you and yours 👍👍👍👍

Really cool. Thanks for uploading this. 65 is the best year for GTOS in my opinion and it's in a great color too. My father still has the 69 L71 Corvette he bought new. I doubt there are many one owner muscle cars left out there today.

Love the exhaust note of the old ponchos. Very distinct sound, great drive. Tons of torque, moved as soon as you goosed them. Mine had manual steering and also the center consol. You could take your hands off the wheel and she'd just track right down the road. Great memories, thanks

I had a beautiful 65 Tri-power GTO when I was 17. One day my father caught me going down the block smoking the tires all the way and the next day he put a 4-sale sign on it. I sure miss my GTO

Wow, I had a 65 of the same color, 4-speed three deuces, but it had the black tonneau roof. Mine was factory stripped with no undercoating but it had the reverberating AM radio. I could burn all the rubber off in one burnout if I wanted to! Thanks for the video!

Thank you for sharing. My dad had a 65 in nightwatch blue. Sadly he sold it in 72. I remember standing on the front seat, holding the grab bar and yelling faster! Seeing this brought back a flood of memories.

Aqua bay mist...my second favorite color on a 65.... my first is iris mist. This is a gorgeous car, and well taken care of. Love the rally one rims! I was prez of the Ohio valley gto association for a few years in the late 80’s early 90’s. To be around all of these magnificent cars was pure joy. Mine was a 67 convertible, Montreux blue, parchment interior, white top, hi-PO motor. I sold it in the mid 90’s.....yea, I was STUPID, I know
