The 6.5 liter Pontiac GTO (389 cu in) was brought out in in 1964 to compete with the Ford Mustang in the muscle car youth market.
At the time gasoline cost $0.299 per gallon. Now it costs $3.89/gallon.
What happens to a car that is totalled by the insurance company? Here is one example. A 2006 Pontaic GTO rear ended in Ohio and declaired a total loss is sold to a car parts man who takes the wreck and puts it up for sale on the internet. All or parts are for sale. My coworker has a 1964 Chevelle SS with a 283 V-8 that he wants to convert into a screaming combination of restored original and modern muscle car. The engine in this GTO is a Corvette L2 with 400 hp. The engine and six speed transmission are now in the 1964 Chevelle. Modifications required for the insertion have been found on a web site posted by a man who has already accomplished this feat. Drive shaft has to be shortened by about 3" and moifications to the radiator need to be done for everything to fit.
This is my 1970 455 gto bought in 1984 for $1500.I customized it in 85 all work done by myself. A first place show winner many times,and peoples choice. Currently valued at 80000 and driven often a real eye catcher. Check out more of these car photos in our Show Off Your Ride gallery.
Found a restoration candidate! This is car prior to restoration. Looks good here, but needing major work.
Irrelevant to the '69 GTO ...
The song - Which Way You Goin' Billy? - was the title track of the first album by the band (The Poppy Family) released in 1969.
