1964 not only marked the arrival of the Ford Mustang but also the formalization of the Pontiac GTO which appeared in 1963 as a variant based on the Tempest 1964. The body was available as a coupe, hardtop and convertible. The GTO package integrated a 389ci V8 with the competition-derived 421 engine's High Output heads and a four-body carburetor, all for an output of 325 horsepower at 4800 rpm. As an option it was possible to get the Tri-Power package (three double-barrel carburettors) which offered 23 more horsepower. The Pontiac GTO is considered to be the first muscle car.
