Coincidence?
I don't know who these folks are but for those fortunate enough to have an ambitious spouse willing to get out of a comfortable bed at the crack of dawn, be the back seat driver, and paddle you around Lake of Two Rivers looking for photo ops, you are indeed very blessed.
Spotted in the general parking lot of the condominium block we were staying in, during our recent visit to Palm Springs, California. Despite being a sought-after classic muscle car from the 1960's it appears to be a 'daily driver' i.e. "A personally owned automobile driven on a frequent basis for standard and mundane tasks" [Wictionary] .
The Pontiac GTO is a front-engine rear-drive 2-door mid-size car beginning with the 1964 model year, arguably the trend-setting "muscle cars" so popular in North America in the '60's and 70's. The concept was to fit a regular production car (Pontiac Tempest/LeMans) with a bigger engine (389 ci) offering improved handling and performance, although braking was dubious.
Each model year typically had improvements, and this one seems to be a 1965 model.
Narrow twisty country lanes - wet and muddy - can make for exciting driving in a rear wheel drive sports car - providing you don't meet a tractor coming the other way.
A little something to listen to as you browse the images:

Curtis Turner was one of the early pioneers of NASCAR Racing, Competiting against such greats as Junior Johnson, Glen "Fireball" Roberts, and Joe Weatherly. Born in Floyd County, Virginia, Curtis made his forturn in the timber and lumber business, and was famous for his hard living and hard driving. In 1960 he conceived and built a 1.5 mile speedway near Charlotte, North Carolina. The Charlotte Motor Speedway was deep in debt when it opened and soon after holding its first race, Curtis and the other investors lost the track. Under new ownership the speedway prospered and is today one of the premier tracks on the NASCAR Circuit. Throughout his career he found himself at odds with NASCAR's Founder and President William H. G. "Big Bill" France. The final straw came in the early 1960's when Curtis attempted to organize a drivers union. Even though his efforts failed, Curtis was banned from any form of NASCAR Racing. In 1965 NASCAR lifted the ban and Curtis returned to NASCAR Racing in the American 400 ath the North Carolina Motor Speedway, in Rockingham, North Carolina. Curtis showed that his hard driving style had not changed as he held off a young Cale Yarborough for his most lucrative victory. For the next few years Curtis was semi-retired, racing only when the price was right. He intended to race in the 1970 National 500 at the Charlotte Motor Speedway, but on October 4, 1970, Curtis and golf professional Clarence King were killed in a plane crash near Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Curtis Turner is buried in the Blue Rigde Memorial Gardens in Roanoke, Virginia.
I was one happy driver, in southern-Utah, as the weather and scenery was terrific! Also, John's great truck was a real pleasure to drive and we found some nice rocks in that area. (this is the only Avalanche we experienced on our 2,000+ mile trip - John had already traveled about 5,000 miles with his daughter, Karen, before we joined up in Oregon!)
Given that this vintage car is right-hand drive tells us that it was at least manufactured for either the British or Australian market. Even today I'd suggest it would be a fun driving experience.
