1966 GTO CONVERTIBLE One Owner Survivor</p><p>This 1966 GTO convertible was ordered new on November 18, 1965 by the original ownerandrsquo;s husband as a Christmas present to his wife who is now 93 years old as verified by a letter to the dealer Heineman-Hopkins Pontiac Company Oaklyn, NJ as the letter states that he would like delivery prior to Christmas (Delivered on Dec. 22, 1965). It is very apparent that the wife loved this GTO very much as is apparent by the way she took loving care of the car. The car is a very nice numbers matching survivor with one repaint and one top that looks very good. She kept all letters, order forms, invoices, recipes and insurance and registration forms that show a very complete paper trail for the car. Listed are the documents and condition of the GTO.</p><p><br />Documentation: (46 Pages of Documentation)<br />1. Pictures of original owners with car.<br />2.
