Pontiac Le Mans 1964 Description

1964 Pontiac GTO Tribute: The GTO was the brainchild of Pontiac engineer Russell Gee, n engine specialist; Bill Collins, chassis engineer; and Pontiac chief engineer John DeLorean. In early 1963, eneral Motors' management issued an edict banning divisions from involvement in auto racing. This followed the 1957 voluntary ban on automobile racing that was instituted by the Automobile Manufacturers Association. By the early 1960s, ontiac's advertising and marketing approach was heavily based on performance, nd racing was an important component of that strategy. With GM's ban on factory-sponsored racing, ontiac's young, isionary management turned its attention to emphasizing street performance.The first Pontiac GTO was an option package for the Pontiac Tempest, vailable with the two-door coupe, ardtop, nd convertible body styles. The $295 package included a 389 cu in V8 rated at 325 bhp at 4800 rpm with a single Carter AFB four-barrel carburetor and dual exhaust, hromed valve covers and air cleaner, even-blade clutch fan, floor-shifted three-speed manual transmission with Hurst shifter, tiffer springs, arger diameter front sway bar, ider wheels with 7.50 × 14 redline tires, ood scoops, nd GTO badges.

This beautiful GTO Tribute started life as a Lemans and was brought to its current stage in 2006. The most recent owner has over 20 Pontiacs and this vehicle was built and given to his son.
