I think Pontiac used that combo in some ads for 65 GTO's.
But I don't remember if any were wearing Hurst wheels
But the seller , or a friend of his , added some poetic liberty into the mix involving Hurst with Tiger Gold.
Here is where part of his data comes from, an article published by AutoEvolution

" The division even offered a color scheme that reminded the customer of the majestic Asiatic feline. The Tiger Gold option had a yellow-and-black exterior with a black interior, and around 100 examples were sold in this chromatic combination. That is a rare find, no matter how we put it, and one of those examples is for sale.
...The car has changed hands several times since the Hall-of-Famer athlete sold it in 2009
Six years later, in 2015, the car was deemed worthy of $74,000, and two months ago, it was sold again for a nice, round $70,000. A month from now, it will go under the hammer once more at the Monterey auction. "
The Hurst Wheels could probably be incorporated into any Pontiac car sale in any car size or any car color by participating dealers via the Hurst Wheel campaign.
