GTO is the car that started it all. Prior to 1964, performance cars were full-size hardtops and sedans with the largest-displacement engines available. While other manufacturers were concentrating on their full-size lines, Pontiac saw the potential for dropping a big block engine into an intermediate frame and marketing it at a budget price.
Capturing the history of the A-body Pontiac, with emphasis on the GTO, this comprehensive reference includes the features that car enthusiasts are searching for. It includes all-new optional equipment installation rates, advertising slogans, expanded technical specifications, and collector-market values updated to 2003 for Tempest, Tempest Custom, LeMans (through 1981), Sprint, GTO, Luxury LeMans, LeMans Sport, LeMans GT, and GT-37, as well as dream, show, and racing cars.
