What is a 64 GTO Tri Power 4 Speed vert worth ?
You tell me. How do you put a price on part of the family ? I was not one of the fortunate ones that bought their car new. But I have had it since 77.She's not the only car I have but probably my favorite. I have more pictures of her than any of my other cars even though I have had some them longer. so bare with me and I'll share some pics of my cherished 64 vert over the past 32 years. About a year after I bought her I started showing her some. She has always done well. I slipped the older pictures of the boys in early. there will be one of the grand kids later on.

Fall concert , My car is very date correct and was when I bought it many years ago should I really be drivinging it? Probably not but where is the fun in hauling it around in a trailer.I love to to drive it.I get scared at times there are so many idiots on the road. I enjoy sitting back and watch people look at it and listen to their stories.Watch guys explain the 3 carbs to wife or girl friend. The most important thing is these cars are suppose to be our hobby even if it's a numbers car you have to enjoy it .No trailer Queens in this house hold

Hey Don,
I love the pictures,especially the "before and after" with the boys!! I had my car photo'ed for a newspaper in 96,the last time it was shown. The shot was me,standing beside Kyle,(3 years old) and sitting by me,although he was sitting on the left front fender. The caption read,something like-"Kyle can't wait until he's 16 to drive his uncle's 65 GTO convertible." We are both smiling. Well ,guess what,Kyle turned 16 on June 17,and there's no freakin; way!!!!!!! LOL I still have the picture,and was going to go back,and redo the photo( same spot),but reverse the original staging. I was going to sit on the fender and he was going to stand w/arm around me!!!! He grew to 6 ft,and is still growing. I am 5' 11-1/2" ,he got me!!!!!! I am still going to do this shot. I know what you mean about worth.The car is great,I like the Jim Wangers shot,and his message is right on the money. That car is now rare,with it's being original 3x2 etc. Congrats to you on owning this car for so long,and caring for "her". At first,I thought you wanted to price it for the market to sell. I hope that isn't the case,is it?? Larry Banks

Larry - I "just" let my son drive the GTO a couple weeks ago. He's 23. (He's probably still smiling!).

old post
I know you guys posted in 10/2009, but I wasn't around then.
I bought my car in '87. My daughter was 6. I "told her it was hers when she got her drivers license". WELL, Last year she finally got to drive it, at the age of 29!!! Still haven't let my son-in-law drive it and my daughter is always rubbing it in to him.. OH WELL |

One of the greatest memories I will cherish is seeing my boy drive my 66. I bought the car when I was 17, drove it everyday to school, and somehow it survived me. Now my son who is a cadet at the USAFA drives it whenever he is home. That is truly the reason I hung on to the car for 30 years to experience the memories!

Hi Bill , It was good talking to you today!
Sloan I know what your talking about . I was telling Bill earlier today I bought my 56 Thunderbird when I was 17 .It's still here . I didn't own my first GTO until I was 24 but I made up for it . |

A couple recent pictures of the 64. She's showing her age just like here owner, but gets a fair amount of attention when she's out . Last weekend a younger reporter for a local TV station took a clip of her .I asked him do you know what you just shot. He answered not really. I remarked you just took a video of the car that started all this around you. It's an original factory tri power 4 speed GTO. then I gave him a history lesson in Pontiac starting with the B bodies 2+2 and so on. I said when you get back to the office google it, it's good reading.

Last Time I went to a car show was (at the Packard Proving Ground) in the Northern Suburbs of Detroit.
I had the top down and went to get a drink and when I come back a guy is having his picture taken inside my car. I asked him what he was doing and he said having a picture taken in a muscle car. What do you think my response was in polite civil terms was vs the actual words I used? Last car show the 64 GTO Vert has ever been to. Your 64 Convertible is still holding its age well. Thanks for the pictures. Tom V.
