1966 Pontiac GTO Drag Strip cars.

You didn't mention it but that is the back side, near the shop doors, of Royal Pontiac.

Default Vintage 1986...

One of my old GTO's, this is a '67 400HO TH400 car with some nice options. An original CA black plate car that "had" all of the original and functioning smog equipment when I bought it. Of course like many did, I removed it all and tossed it into the trash and changed it over to the more attractive 49 state setup with the open element air cleaner. I also changed the color from Linden Green to Regimental Red which I regretted later after seeing a freshly restored '67 Linden Green GTO. That's just what we did back then.

I like that lower body Regimental Red with the upper body Cameo Ivory, BUT
that lower body Starlight Black with upper body Cameo Ivory is my preference.

Default 1966

More vintage photos of a 3x2’s 4 speed ‘66 GTO in Florida.

Marina Turquoise with matching painted wheels that was available in this particular color with the standard hub caps.

Looks like the license plate is 66?

Has it’s correct seeing eye cap R59 battery in place and the big ear radiator cap.
Looks like an oil pressure sending unit which would indicate the Rally Gauge option.
Power Steering.
Door edge guards.

I’m not sure what that is on all 3 fuel lines. Looks like tape?
I can still see the 5178 written on the front carb bowl.
