Default Pontiac Dealerships

I bought my new 1966 GTO at Gay Pontiac in Dickinson Texas. They were into drag racing and they had many trophies lining the showroom walls. I think the middle picture is what the dealership looked like in 66. My wife and I ordered the car with woodgrain steering wheel and PS/AC and marina turquoise color. I remember the redline tires were standard but we opted for the new very narrow white wall tires. Had to pay $10 extra I think. But we had grown up in the 50's with the very wide white walls and thought the narrow were cool. But what I remember most is taking it home in Houston a starter wire caught on fire in downtown 5pm traffic. Another dealership close by repaired it.
