This might just be the coolest GTO we've ever featured here at Streetside Classics, check that, it might be the coolest custom car we've ever featured. We've offered a lot of custom builds and restomods in our day, but none have had a theme that was as important to us as this 1965 Pontiac GTO Military Tribute Custom. Inspired by the brave men and women in the military that served and still serve our country each day, this epic build set off to make a statement: "Thank you for your service". Few cars have ever managed to combine the pure essence of this ultimate American muscle car with the proud and storied tradition of our military personnel, and although it's a mere tribute to their ultimate sacrifices, we would hope that it makes some of those folks feel good when they see it.
This Goat is all about looking dignified and tough as nails, and the Matte Olive Drab paint on the legendary Poncho design looks about as distinguished as Army Dress Greens on a freshly enlisted Private. It's a logical color choice, and when matched up with the hammer-tone bumpers and brightwork, it looks slick and commanding. Just take a look at this classic, it practically looks like it was 3D printed. Hardtop cars like this are the most desirable of course, and one quick look at the KAN (Kansas) factory data plate shows a '5N', which decodes to a genuine GTO – only a trim option in these early years. The body work is very straight - the result of a lot of time spent on getting new panels to line up just right with the old - and after everything was square, several layers of primer and matte paint were carefully applied by skilled hands. The results speak for themselves, with top quality throughout and only the most minor of imperfections to be found. The trim and brightwork was covered in hammer-tone silver paint to provide great contrast to all that green, and we have to say that the choice was a great one. The easy thing would've been to re-chrome all that shine, but by using hammer-tone paint on everything, including the badges, the car takes on a whole new persona. But even with all the aesthetic changes, the car still remains unmistakably Pontiac, from the stacked headlights that were new for 1965 to the beautifully blacked out and louvered taillight lenses. It all works extremely well, making this a fantastic-looking, bespoke GTO.
The interior is filled with the same kind of magic, highlighted by the seats wrapped in black ultraleather and digital green and silver camouflage inserts. Pretty cool, right? Well, the fun doesn't stop there, as you also get custom aluminum door panels with Chris Kyle's American Sniper 'Punisher' logo embossed up front, a center console decked-out in hammer-tone silver paint, and a killer wrap-around silver dash loaded with aftermarket goodies. A black leather-wrapped billet steering wheel feels great in the hands of the driver, but not nearly as cool as the Lokar shifter that was combined and modified with an authentic helicopter joystick for the handle. The silver button shifts the transmission and the red one fires the horn, what?! And if that didn't get you ready for battle, drop down the custom dark Lexan sun-visors with built in scopes to help you zero in on the target. High-end AutoMeter digital-analog gauges monitor the engine's vitals, while the insane fuel-injection system is controlled by a Moon Eyes control panel that allows for 'on the fly' calibration adjustments to be made from the cockpit - perfect placement to get you ready for a dogfight. Up above the headliner and sail panels were finished in black vinyl, whereas the floors were coated in spray-in bedliner material for a rugged finish.
As you might expect, there's plenty of pop under the hood to back up the looks, with a fuel-injected 350 V8 crate motor providing the firepower. A lot of ingenuity and expense went into the drivetrain, with a ton of 'little things' incorporated to make the car extra special, and quite frankly we don't have the room to list them all here. But a laundry list of awesome custom touches is only a phone call away, and we'd all-but guarantee that you'll be impressed. The handiwork is top notch, and the 350 GM Performance Crate V8 runs superbly thanks to the 6-pack throttle-body system on top that all runs through Chico Kodama's Moon Eyes S.D.S. system. The six throttle bodies were custom milled from billet aluminum to look like 97 Strombergs (each one has two injectors inside), they're all mounted atop a special Offenhauser intake, and in concert with the lively cam in the block the motor has an amazing lope and sound. The firewall has been smoothed, which undoubtedly helps, but the rest looks like it belongs there. Obviously everything is new with only 125 miles on the build, and the engine bay was finished and detailed to show off. A giant BeCool aluminum radiator and electric fans keep it cool and things like power steering and power 4-wheel power disc brakes are included for a great ride every time out. An H-pipe Magnaflow dual exhaust provides just the right tone and the suspension is upgraded with CPP upper/lower control arms, CPP dropped spindles, and a CPP sway bar up front, upgraded shocks, and a CPP 4-link rear setup. A built TH350 automatic with a 2500 stall convertor spins a rebuilt driveshaft that's hooked to the 3.73-geared 12-bolt rear end out back. And yes, everything is coated with POR-15 underneath and presented just as nice as the rest of the car. Billet Specialties wheels were painted to match the custom colors, and they wear sporty 225/45/17 front and 245/45/18 rear Hankook radials that finish the look.
Expertly built and wickedly cool, this awesome custom GTO lives up to the legend in every possible way and will make onlookers stay for a second and even a third look. Like I said, we've never featured one quite this special. Call today!

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
FEES
: A documentation fee of 9 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
AVAILABILITY
: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
CONTACT
: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
INSPECTION
: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
PAYMENT
: We require a non-refundable 0 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers. SHIPPING: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
DRIVE IT HOME
: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.
DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE
: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN VERIFICATION
: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
MILEAGES
: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
CONDITION
: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
AS-IS
: All vehicles are sold "AS IS" and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!

Information is provided to the best of our knowledge and we make no warranty or representation regarding the accuracy, truth, or reliability of such information. We cannot be responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by the consignor/seller of the vehicle. We strive to perform extensive visual inspections on all vehicles we represent but we do not disassemble vehicles or components for inspection purposes and therefore it is always possible that there is hidden damage that is not readily apparent. All vehicles are sold AS-IS with no warranties expressed or implied.
