BTW, one year only 1966 GTO if ordered with Rally I wheels all 4 brake drums were painted Red.

I know there is a couple pics on slides. once I dig into those I'll post them.
my Dad let my uncle use the car for his High School prom probably in 1967. I remember seeing that pic on slides in the 70's.
it was Barrier Blue 389 4 barrel, 4-speed, bucket seats.

The weidner car later?

Looks to be a Fontaine Blue or a Nightwatch Blue ‘66 GTO hardtop with it’s single white pinstripe.

1965 Texas plates.

Possible early headliner and a standard inside rear view mirror.
The letter “T” is missing or blacked out on the grill plate.

Neat vintage photo.

Cool vintage photo, it's a GO car! Blue Charcoal maybe? That white pinstripe looks rather thick.

Hi Grant,

Yup, a GO car.

Good point that it may be Blue Charcoal.
Was that the color of your ‘66 A.I.R. car you owned decades ago?

I noticed that thick stripe also.

Hi Bill.... It was a pretty neat car that a good friend of mine bought from the original owner around 1992 in San Francisco. It had all of the original purchase paperwork too. The only issue is that it had a poorly replaced left rear quarter at some point from a LeMans.

1966 GTO with the WV (A.I.R.) engine = 1550 produced.

That 60 year old rare car deserves to have a GTO quarter panel installed correctly with paint and white pinstripe.

Smoggers on the receipt, hilarious.

Chris.... as you may recall, I tried to find the car again when I began seeking a '66 GTO back in early 2019, but I had no luck. I hope it's still out there and and intact.
