Not black but Blu Scuro, it is not original but maybe better then the original Rosso CIna exterior? The repaint was probably done by Brandon Wang after he acquired it in 1993. Brandon Wang is a famous and still active vintage Ferrari collector and you have lots of opportunities to see his 250 GTO in UK or even in the world! Actually he is also the main orginazer of the 1998 250 GTO Gargen Party.
The 1966 Pontiac GTO Convertible is an iconic American muscle car, celebrated as one of the vehicles that defined the era with its bold styling, powerful engine options, and open-top driving experience. It was the first year the GTO became a standalone model rather than an option package.

Pontiac GTO 1966. By 1964 the time was right for muscle cars (and Pony cars), and John DeLorean at GM wanted Pontiac to have a slice of the action. So taking the A-body Tempest Le Mans, he found a loophole in the GM regulations which forbid small cars having big engines and created the GTO package which showed a 4-barrel 325 bhp 6,364cc (389) under the hood. There were other styling and trim options and some engineering to match the power, apart from retaining drum brakes. Sales of 5,000 units were expected, but were exceeded 6-fold. The 1965 Tempest range (including GTO) got longer, styling got more extreme, and the car got vertical headlamps and a hood scoop.In 1966 the GTO finally became an official model line, and the Tempest body became longer, more curvy and with a coke bottle waist line. For 1967 there was an optional 400 cu.in. engine and more styling changes. A new car was brought out for 1968.
