1967 Pontiac GTO
The first-gen Pontiac GTO is widely regarded as the first true example of an American muscle car. There may have been performance-oriented machines dating back to the 1950s, but the GTO was different. Pontiac had always used their vehicles’ performance to market their machines, but General Motors’ ban on motorsports during the early 1960s was making things tricky. In order to retain their marketing strategy, Pontiac decided to focus on street-oriented performance instead. To make this work, Pontiac’s John DeLorean, Bill Collins and Russ Gee came up with a rather simple solution based on the drag racing scene. They simply stuck a big V8 into their mid-sized (and affordable) LeMans, and the rest is history. While the GTO moniker debuted as a package in 1964, it didn’t become its own dedicated vehicle until 1966. This particular 1967 model is the last of the first-gen line, and is quite desirable.
