Re: 1965 GTO 389 Tri-Power Close Ratio 4 Speed 3:90's
It is my understanding that the only way to get a M21 Close Ratio in a 1965 GTO was to order the 3.90 gear. This follows given the way the dealer wrote the order with the 3.90 ratio and close ratio transmission on the same line with the same price. I don't think you could order that gear set with a wide ratio. However, many strange things happened at the plant back-in-the-day. Ed

Nice piece my friend! IMHO, the '65 was the zenith in GTO styling. Welcome to a great site.

Re: 1965 GTO 389 Tri-Power Close Ratio 4 Speed 3:90's
VERY cool car!
This was my GTO back in the late 70's to mid-1980's. Bought it for $750 in 1977, had original paint (Blue Charcoal), but only a 4-bbl and 2-speed. Drove it to college almost daily. By the mid-1980's, I dropped in a built 400, T400, 4.56 gears, and did some street racing, but I still kept it looking stock.
