Factory curves and potentpower plantsare what make classic muscle cars standout.

Jim MottRestorationscertainly knows this to be true as the restorerof our latest

Muscle Car of the Year Finalist,this incredibly clean and straight 1965 Pontiac GTO.


In Del Mar, we couldn’t stop looking at this GTO mostly because of howclean

and laser straight it was. The black & white two tone only added to the

intrigue. With its stock GM frame supporting the car’s rebuilt original

389ci V8engine and untampered with factory good looks, you’ve got everything

themuscle car era was known for right in this one choice ride.

Proving that the factory knew what it was doing back when this cherry Pontiac

came off the line, this GTO maintains all its factory-optioned fare, including

itsstock manual transmission that’s still going strong backing up that 389 under

the hood, open rear differential with 3.55:1 gears, optional aluminum drumbrakes

and even its stock 14-inch wheels and tires. There’s no modificationsneeded

here for a powerful ride, quality products and that beloved muscle carrumble.


A factory hardtop car, this 65 GTO is accentuated in chrome against asleek

PPG Black paint scheme in all the right places, while the roof of the car

is set off from the rest in a crisp PPG White. The base coat/ clear coat

makesthe classic paint scheme pop even more, setting the standard for

elegance inthe muscle car world.

Sticking with the car’s factory options and appeal, the interior of the caris

done up in Legendary upholstery over a factory seat, with a stock wood wheel,

rally gauges and a boldly positioned Hurst shifter all maintained for nostalgicpurposes.


This truly remarkable GTO maintains its original sheet metal,Protect-O-Plate,

and even its full original drivetrain all the way down to theoriginal carb tags.

It’s no wonder this car has scored at the top of its class and won national

recognitions such as the GTO Association of America Best of Show Nationals winner

witha score of 691 points out of 700 the first time the car was ever judged, as well

as the 2015POCI Concourse Gold with a score of 396 points out of 400, as well astop

honors at the2015 Muscle Car & Corvette Nationals, with a score of 991 points out of 1000.


A stunning example of factory aesthetics and mechanics, this GTO has certainly earned

its Muscle Car of the Year Finalist position!
