That actually would have been 1966 with about 96,000 cars out the door. I believe in '65 they sold about 72,000 cars

Hi Tracker1,

I was speaking of “Popular” as in most liked (1965) from multiple surveys taken the past 40+ years in the GTO world.

As for Production, totals below.
‘64 - 32,405
‘65 - 75,352
‘66 - 96,946
‘67 - 81,722

Vintage Pontiac Advertisements
 

Pontiac advertisements and their brochures from 1959 through 1971 had beautiful artwork from the famous Arthur Fitzpatrick and Van Kaufman.

Below are a few of the reflections and shadows that were featured on these awesome illustrations.

They made these Pontiacs look sexier than they ever were, and they were already sexy. Love Pontiac art!.......bill s

The ‘65 Red interior would have a Parchment headliner.

This one was sold by McGrath Pontiac in Cedar Rapids, 60 miles down the road from me.

MY buddy from highschool standing on the door of the 70 Judge convertible his dad bought in the mid-70's. Car is still owned by him, I painted 20+ years ago. When we were in highschool we would push it out of the garage in the middle of the night and go street racing - factory 4.33 gears so it's at redline about 90 MPH.

Here's one a buddy used to own in late 80s? RA IV 4.33s 4 speed I remember running him in my 69Z (oval port 427) I felt good hanging with him it was original paint and only like 35k on it it used to be in Houston (track pic) before I think its up in northeast now it did get painted before it left Texas
