Yes it does. Has the 3:55 non-posi axle.
First time my dad crawled under the car and saw the DB on the side of the transmission he was pretty happy. He had traded in a 64 Fairlane with a 289 HiPo and Toploader for the GTO and knew the capabilities of the transmission.

Pretty cool. I would imagine GTOs with a three speed transmission are uncommon.
