1965 Pontiac GTO Hardtop – Classic Style, Proven Performance, Ready to Drive

This 1965 Pontiac GTO 2-Door Hardtop offers the perfect blend of vintage muscle car presence and thoughtful modern upgrades, making it a standout both on the show field and on the open road. Finished in a timeless black exterior over a matching black interior with bucket seats and a center console, this GTO captures the clean, aggressive look that defined Pontiac’s golden era of performance.

Under the hood sits a strong-running 389 cubic inch V8 engine paired with a smooth 3-speed automatic transmission. The engine bay has been enhanced with a modern pulley setup, offering improved reliability and performance, while a bolt-on tachometer provides easy monitoring for spirited driving. The car is also equipped with cold air conditioning, making it comfortable to enjoy even in warmer climates.

Driving dynamics have been upgraded with tubular front A-arms and a 4-way power disc brake system—featuring disc brakes on both the front and rear for confident stopping power. The car rides on a set of custom wheels that give it a bold, updated stance while maintaining the classic GTO silhouette.

These modern suspension, brake, and wheel upgrades make this classic GTO not just a looker, but a pleasure to drive on long journeys or everyday outings. This car has been driven and enjoyed as it was meant to be, having completed numerous long-distance road trips to car shows as well as participation in the Hot Rod Power Tour. It speaks to the reliability, comfort, and drivability of this well-maintained build.

Additional features include a full-size spare tire and a clean, well-presented interior. This is not just a car to admire in the garage—it’s a turn-key muscle car built to be driven and enjoyed.

Whether you’re a serious collector or a weekend cruiser, this 1965 Pontiac GTO delivers classic muscle car looks with proven road-ready performance. A true icon of American motoring history.
