Nothing scares this shop from what I’ve seen. Top shelf work!! Wish I could have my car hand built by this shop. What a dream
My Dad had this same color 1965 GTO, man great example guys 😢, THANK you for the memories...
Pitter patter a true muscle care brought back by true craftsman.....thanks for this....
Great Job on that 65. My 65 has been Montero Red for 35 years. It is a Baltimore Car paint coded "P".
Imp gonna leave it to my son and let him paint it Iris Mist. :)
... You were absolutely right to restore this particular car back to factory original as possible....Thanks !
To the welder & body person, my hat is off to you in your ability & able to see past all of the rust. To envision what can be is a nice talent to have.
What an amazing transformation. It is hard to imagine how much effort and skill that took to restore that iconic GTO. Well done,
Nice job and thanks for posting. Our GTO’s are a privilege to own and maintain. It’s great to see another example brought back to life! For the record, my 65 is black w/red guts, 3.55 gears, 4-speed, posi, splitters and PHS documented. Keep ‘em rolling and be safe. Strange times what with the virus and all.
What an awesome restoration, from beginning till the end.
Iris mist goat !! Sweet car !! Well done !!
I had one of these back in 1970. Black on black convertible. Wish I had it now. Also had a '67 later. NICE!
Always been my favorite GTO my uncle had 1 back in 74 or 75...... Hand Built channel i love you....
I had this very car in a convertible, Vinyl interior in black, all power, grey with a black top.
Love the color
Fantastic job!!
Great work especially when at 4:07 you briefly turned it into a '69 Camaro convt. But I do love these videos
So jealous of how little rust was on this car. Great job car looks fantastic
Excelente vídeo, saludos desde Mexico, sigan siendo los mejores
now that is totally awesome video about 1965 Pontiac got lris mist restoration project car .. can't wait to see more totally awesome videos
Beautiful Restoration, Bravo......
Skilled tradesman ,welders,body-men ,painters ,electrical wizards. It would be interesting to learn the number of hours to bring to this back to this high level
Fred Garvin what’s a brand better than new 1965 GTO worth $ 100,000 ?
I have done many restorations in my life. Never to this extent unless it was needed. You guys did a magnificent job on this goat. On another note, I ask myself, how the hell can you get 64 unlikes? it cracks me up.
Nice job, nice presentation. '65 GTO was a sweet ride. Daddy had one, "three deuces and a four speed and a 389." Thanks for the memories and CONGRATS!
What a great job. It's a real work of art. I just finished my 1969 AMC AMX 390 GO PACK WITH EVERY AVAILABLE OPTION, Even though we are never really done first class. Neal
Such a great job. The color alone makes it quite rare. I would rather work on a darker color that shows off the shine and the straightness of the body. More rewarding when they are done. I have done 8-9 restorations of this caliber over the last 30 years and I can appreciate what you have accomplished with this build. Some were in worse shape than this one and some were better but all took so many man hours to complete. Sometimes you can work all day and not see much improvement. I'm getting too old to take on anymore and just doing the easy crash work. My lungs are giving out. Protect yourself from the dust and keep on doing the great work and save as many of these classic's as possible. One thing that always made me mad was someone seeing a job like this in the final stages when you finally get to the buffing or hand polishing point and they ask you "wow, what kind of wax is that?" as though that is what makes the shine they see and think that their car would look the same if they used the same product. Again, great workmanship guys.
Great restoration the gaps are perfect. Very rare color back in the day no one I knew would order this color guessing it was a color for the wives car. I like it NOW....just because it is so rare!
Wooow that use to be somebody car who ever had it..good job FAM.
nice save! dam heater core is plugged on mine and starting to drip from the bottom of the heater vent box..
Very Very Nice Job ,I Put Convertible Coil Springs In Mine ,It Levels It Up On The Back ,Raises It Up About 1 Inch ,Keep Those Pontiacs Coming !!!
SPECTACULAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It would've been nice to see before and after pictures of the radiator core support. It's very common for them to rust out on the lower driver side. These items are not available through the aftermarket. Would've been nice to see the work done to that area of the radiator core support.
PONTIAC ! ! !
🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
Great effort, as always
Very beautiful
Projeto fantástico, parabéns.
My best friend had a '64 , black 3 dueces, 4 speed. Great car. Went with his '56 Nomad.
Fantastic.
I luv it!!!!!!!!
I hope this is the one I had back then.
Professional restoration 👍
I have a ‘65 convertible. Nice driver but wish I had the time and money to do it right like this one.
Very nice car and quality work! Thank goodness for the volume control though, hope I didn’t miss any voice over info.
Amazing work!
Beautiful car, congratulations !!!!
Really beautiful restoration and that Iris Mist color is stunning! It was a seldom-ordered color. I've seen a lot of '65 GTOs at shows over the years and I've never seen one in person.
It's actually the same color as "Evening Orchid" on Chevys of that same year. As a side note I've always thought that "Evening Orchid" is probably the prettiest name for a car color ever. Sorry, I get choked up. Lol.
And original Chevys and Pontiacs with that color bring a large premium on value...it was definitely the best color of any car in 1965
What a amazing work y’all are the best 👍🏼
excellent work, they are masters of restoration. I love your channel and whenever I can I see them. I greet you from Santiago de Chile.
Very nice build
Maybe another wheel and tire design, in everything else it is fantastic!!!
amoxtli tlitl It’s a restoration. It has the correct wheels and tyres. Millennial perhaps?
@@davidjolliffe9622 OK, but still it seems to me that there may be another type of wheels and tires for this beauty !!!!!
I bought one of these (used) in 1973, for $500. Ran great, looked great. pale yellow, tan interior, 389, 3-2s, 4 speed. I was 16 years old. I sold it, joined the Air Force, moved away bought a 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner... NEVER LOOKED BACK... BEEP BEEP... MOPAR or no car.
Awesome art
Very good 👍
Nice job!!! What about the '66 on the lift in the background? Although I had a'65 Goat in high school, the '64-'67 have always been my favorite!!!
👍 You are really professional
I love how it looks so well original I love those rims with red stripes a beautiful GTO and more I love because it is the same as I have only mine is champagne and is in 1/18 scale hahaha, greetings from Paraguay👋🏼🇵🇾
nice
Well, it WAS rare, now it's just like everyone else does. May God have mercy on your soul.
Most awesome channel at youtube
Thank you.👍🏻🚘
Nice to see a real restoration, not one where the RS logo appears everywhere..... A nice job, but that trunk lid isn't a great fit. I guess a perfect panel fit wouldn't be a real restoration :-)
A friend bought a 65 GTO new and still owns the car. It was a 389 4sp. Was stolen twice they ran the crap out of it then stole the 4sp. We put a 400 in it about 40 years ago. He has been in a nursing home about 6 mo. He is 79. Smoked the tires off.It's a weird blue with a blue interior 4.11 rear axle. Bone dry and rust free Western Washington car.
I'm also riding a Pontyak Membership GTO in Japan! Sexy car 1967
All business this car: tri-power 4-speed, manual steering & brakes.
Fantastic car AND THAT DRUMMER WAS BETTER'N KEITH MOON!!
In 1971, I bought a 65 Catalina convertible. I would love to have another one, except I'd rather have a hard top.
Should of had wide 60 tires in back. Jack up! Old school. Nice though 👌
These GTO's are fast ! 7 litres / 455 cu.
Excellent job!!....thanks for sharing!!
Does the title have to be redone to show it as rebuilt or salvage?
awesome car. I have a 65 4 speed car with hurst shifter and console. I'm not sure I have the correct shifter boot(because there is empty space between shifter and console that stuff falls into) or the correct hurst shifter. do you know how to tell if it is the original shifter and if the boot should come up flush with the console, thank you for your time,Joe
This, people is why GM sold so many "A" bodies in the 60's they were FUCKING! gorgeous, Mopar, and Ford styling couldn't hold a candle to this!
Just bought a 65 that needs a ton of work, but I like the car! Hey what's up with that photo of the 69 camaro convertible interior? How did that car come out? Are there any more photos??? :)
Wow was it a tri power car
Awesome build. Thank you so much for not trans4ming this car into some sh1tt1 ghettostyle cr4ppalooza. Really nice. I would love to drive this car. :D
For me this rare color option only looks right with a parchment interior
Where did you get your floor pans?
Thought iris mist was more purple and pink
How much did it cost in the end to fix it
My dad's 1966 Corvair was an ineresting color...CHAMPAGNE MIST...?
I know I know, it's the "Holy Grail"
Ia there trible air filter
💎💎💎👍👍👍
Redline tires were not available till 67.
😢
😎👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Cost
I'm NO Pontiac expert, but a GTO serial number should start with 242, and not 237. Clone 1965 GTO?
Not in 1965. That would apply to 1966-1971 and then change again with it being a package for 1972. In 1964-1965 it was an option on a Lemans and did not have its' own VIN sequence series like the later cars did. The Pontiac Historical Society (PHS) documentation for this would show the GTO option and that is the way to confirm it. This particular one is a Kansas City, MO assembled car. So in 1964-1965 the VIN # alone will not tell you if it's a true GTO or not. Documentation such as a window sticker or better yet PHS documentation will confirm it.
@@googleusergp Thank you for the clarification. I appreciate it. 😁

Where the F do you find all of these damn cars??? I've driven through the mountains and backroads and can't find sjitt!!
This metal is already dead as a car. So it's good to paint and decorate beautifully, but never drive.
That poor once beautiful car, could you have picked a worse color? And see if you can get a refund for those wheels.
❤❤❤❤✋✋✋😘😘
Why do you say its rare.
It's not that a '65 GTO is rare. It that Iris Mist was a very rare color. Same color as the one called "Evening Orchid" on Chevys from 1965. It was rare on those cars too.
