Can't stand the Heat, get out of the Fire, In 1967 it was for me either the GTO - the Firebird Well before deciding I than preferred the Sprint option Firebird , ours had a history all so clear now, for I got over 200,000 miles a Slightly over 3 thousand new, than sold it for 1,500 after $ 260.00 Engine refurbish. three speed on the floor , getting 20 miles per gallon .
"...When the M12 GTO was launched, it came into a market saturated with ‘junior supercars’, the Porsche Boxster, various TVRs and the sporty Mercs but it elbowed its way into a market dominated by legendary names and with a power-to-weight ratio that left a Lamborghini Diablo in its rear-view mirror, the automotive world sat up and took notice..."

The GTO was assembled by GM's Holden subsidiary at Elizabeth, a northern suburb of the South Australian state capital Adelaide. It was equipped with the 350 horsepower, 5.7 liter LS1 V8 engine for the 2004 model year, the same engine found in the concurrent model year Chevrolet Corvette, with a choice of a 6-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed automatic. Changes from the Australian-built Monaro included bracing additions to the body to meet US crash standards, a "corporate Pontiac" front facia, new badging, "GTO" stitching on the front seats, and a revised exhaust system. GM Engineers benchmarked the sound of the 1964 GTO held in the Pontiac historical collection, as well as other LS1-powered vehicles, while working with the exhaust vender to tune the system. The effort was made to make the new GTO invoke the same sound as the original while still meeting the noise threshold required by some states.The 2004 GTO exhaust was a true dual system that followed the original Monaro exhaust routing, thus both tailpipes exited on the driver side of the vehicle. General Motors claimed performance of 5.3 seconds to 60 and a 13.8 second quarter mile time, which was closely verified by several magazine tests.
GM North America's deal with Holden was to produce a maximum of 18,000 vehicles per year starting in late 2003 and going through to the end of the 2006 model year. The 18,000 units was the production limit for the model at the Australian assembly plant.

Almost 10 years to the day after I left the owner of this car a note on his windshields that if he ever wanted to sell it to call me... he did. After a few days we worked a deal and I now own this rare car. This makes 5 LeMans' I currently own.
To many, this would be just an ugly old station wagon. If you think that, you'd be wrong. This is an original T-41 (Endura optioned) wagon. I really am not sure how rare they are but possibly less than 100 ever made and probably fewer that 25 left intact.
In short, you could order the GTO front clip on the car for a whopping $41.00. Why more were not made is anyones guess.
This car has had the original engine changed out for a 1970 455.
The paint is original!
