Coyote Classics is incredibly excited to offer to you this incredible 1966 Pontiac GTO! This is one special car, a frame-off restored car with a recently-repainted original-code "Burgundy Iridescent" paint and Tri-Power carburetor setup. Its Burgundy paint was done to a show quality finish inside and out with new brightwork and stainless steel! In 1966, the muscle car era was really beginning to take shape. The GTO, which is widely credited with kickstarting that movement, became a separate model to distinguish it from the LeMans it was based on. It featured styling with more curvature and kicked-up rear fender lines for a "Coke-bottle" look. The taillights featured a louvered cover which was only seen on the GTO. This gleaming '66 is powered by a 350C.I., Pontiac V8, never leaving the driver wanting for more power. That 350 breathes through a "Tri-Power" carburetion setup, allowing air to get to the engine through 3 pairs of Rochester 2G 2-barrel carburetors. That power is transferred to the rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission, granting quick performance and fast acceleration at a moment's notice. The factory-code "Burgundy Iridescent" paint looks absolutely gorgeous laid out over this GTO's body and is sure to turn heads wherever you go. The interior "Strato" bucket seats are very comfortable, coming with the then-new for 1966 thinner seat backs and contoured cushions for added comfort. Its interior was partially restored and looks nice for a driver but to be show quality like the paint and body it might need some updating. The wood grain trim on the dashboard in addition to the center console give this GTO a very upscale look to match its performance. Options on this GTO include power brakes, upgraded 4 wheel disc brakes, wipers, an updated AM/FM radio, updated JVC speakers, a heater + defroster, adjustable seats, an aluminum radiator, and a dual exhaust system. The car rides on some sharp-looking new American Racing Torque thrust Chrome Wheels with New BFG RWL tires. Mechanically this Goat drives nice but just needs a few more things to really make it top shelf! If you're in the market for a GTO with a desirable color with a gorgeous paint job on a super clean body, then this '66 may just be what you're looking for!

I had two GTO's. Both convertibles. A red 65 389 tri power. 4 speed, 3.90 posi rear. Only had it for 4.5 months [3 speeding tickets in 4 months] and had to get rid of the cop magnet. Beat the 3rd ticket to save my license. 17 months later got a red 67, 400ci, 360hp, 4 speed, 3.90 posi rear. Had this car for almost 4 years. Wish I still had both these cars !

My parents took me to the Pontiac dealership in 1966. They bought a '66 LeMans. I still remember driving home in that car. I was only 4 yrs old. Liked the '66 ever since then, even though EVERYONE ELSE wants the '67, especially since the 400 was new that year. Nice cars, both of them. Brings back the memories!!

With all due respects, I am not being a jerk. They almost got it right as far the restoration goes. The engine is the wrong color, the valve covers are cheesy, the steering wheel is tired looking as is the heater controls. On the other hand, paint and body looks good as does the vinyl roof. The shifter is not even close as is the radio The original shifter was the OEM version of the Hurst Mystery Shifter with a white shifter know.Spend a few additional dollars and you could bring this GTO back to what it was in 66.

I own a 1966 Lemans. Body is crusty and rusty but I have the 326 engine nice and trusty. Here is my advice: Offer no more than $20,000 and that is for the body. Electric fan instead of belt driven fan is a deal killer for me because then I would be wondering what other stupid things the restorer did. The more electric gizmos, the more problems with having to track down electric faults. Tach not working quite right is a major deduction in the offer I would make. Because removing the instrument cluster to work on it is a female dog even if we take into account that there is no rust making removing screws even more fun. Did this last summer to replace the speedometer. One other thing and this is very important. Get your head under the dashboard with a bright flashlight and look at the windshield support from the inside. This part corrodes bad and leaks so if this happened and was not repaired or a new windshield support welded in, then that is what you are buying. Same for the rear window support and this is easier to look at. During rainy weather the water gathers underneath the chrome trim and along the seal and steel. And sits there drying last after the storm. Turns steel into air. If you are buying a freshly restored GM A-body, ask them what they did about the windshield support.

Haven't looked at the website yet so don't know if this car is still available, but one thing I'd immediately do is... put different springs in and LOWER IT! The rake/stance is nice, just too high overall. Yes, of course it should have a 389 or at least a 400 in it. But if that 350 is built right, who's gonna know the difference when you put your foot down? Good looking car overall. Just needs some details straightened out. And seriously, if you're going to spend the money for new Torque Thrusts and RWL tires, why wouldn't you spend the $$ to replace those door handles?! P.S. A few more details would be nice. Like, what kind of 4-speed is it? What are the rear-end gears? Things like that help a lot 😉 Had a '66 myself back in '85. The 389 was gone when I got it, someone put a 428 in it, with the tri-power! Got about 12mpg but got a whole lot more pu**y!! 😆

The 350 was not an experimental engine. It was a bored 326, just as the 400 was a bored 389 and the 428 was a bored 421. The 350 was a grocery getter engine, even with the 4 bbl.. It has the same stroke as the 400 but smaller cylinders that shroud the valves and interfere with air flow.

Wow, it looks like someone ran out of cash after the 15k-20k paint and body work, too bad they choose a 350, I know this car isn`t gonna be cheap. It needs the seats refoamed and covered, headliner fixed, console restored, dash restored, and a built 400. My guess, this guy was a paint and body guy, and left the rest of the stuff, beautiful body, love the color.

So... what's your dealership's asking price for this GTO??? Always kills me that few online sellers of old "restored" vehicles will post an asking price. From experience, it's ALWAYS because the asking price is unreasonable, as to where it ought to be. No price posted is a big red flag sign that as a potential buyer, you need to avoid the seller, no matter how much you might wanna be "wowed" by the shiny paint & nostalgia of the older muscle cars.

She's a looker, but why anyone would choose to put a 350 CHEVY in place of the original 389 (the year before they changed to 400 c.i. for '67) is way beyond me and in my opinion RUINED it! I'm not a GTO officianado, but I've had a '66, '68, and a '67 in that order. I used to own a paperback large book called "The Big 'Little GTO' Book", which I've read most of. So I may not be a complete GTO authority, but I do know more about these cars than anyone you'll ever meet. I dare anyone to match me as far as knowledge about these cars. I'll leave it at that.
