Recently updated on February 3, 2021 at 07:11 am

This Pontiac GTO as Restomod built in 1965 we have to show you. A vehicle that has been restored and revised in every detail, inside, outside, under the hood and even on the underbody. The body is wrapped in a dark blue paint scheme and also bears subtle Pontiac GTO emblems. Aluminum Foose rims with a polished billet finish sit in the wheel arches and state-of-the-art LED headlights with a classic vintage look ensure that the street is properly illuminated. The cabin, on the other hand, shows a custom-made light brown leather interior with modern Pontiac GTO bucket seats at the front and rear, there is a light brown suede headlining, a striking interior lighting in the form of a recessed LED roof lamp and modern instruments are also installed.

6,0-liter V8-LS2 engine

In addition, individual floor mats, a fully lined trunk, leather-covered door panels and even a specially made dashboard. The switches for the vintage air conditioning system are integrated there and further details include high-quality aluminum pedals, a three-spoke steering wheel and even a JBL stereo system. The real highlight is of course in the extremely clean engine compartment of the GTO. This is where a 6,0-liter V8-LS2 engine with modern fuel injection works, which GM also used in the modern Pontiac GTO. An aluminum Magnuson compressor sits on the engine, which significantly increases performance (exact key data are unfortunately not known at the moment).

even with electric seat adjustment

With a special aluminum cooler and an additional electric fan, the temperatures are kept in the green. And the engine receives enough fresh air via the cold air intake system. And of course the GTO also speaks acoustically. Namely via a specially made stainless steel sports exhaust system with tailpipes on the right and left behind the wheels. And the handling upgrades also come from the present. For example, a new power steering is installed, there is a Baer brake system, hotchkis suspension parts, a fully adjustable coilover suspension and even a chrome-plated four-link suspension at the rear when you look under the GTO.
