Default Re: Vintage Pontiac Pics

Brakes were always a point of criticism with the GM Musclecars. They had tremendous acceleration, but couldn't stop worth a darn. Pontiac was thinking about improving their brakes pretty early on for their new high performance car, the GTO.

In the summer of 1963, this 1964 GTO was delivered to Delco-Moraine for testing of disc brakes on GM intermediates (Skylark/Chevelle/Cutlass/Tempest), thus becoming the first A-Body with disc brakes.
