Re: 1965 GTO 389 Tri-Power Close Ratio 4 Speed 3:90's
The "Aluminum front wheels" must have referred to aluminum brake drums which were optional on the front only. I have the March 1965 issue of Car Craft magazine, the GTO being tested is a lot like this car and they mention the aluminum front brake drums.
On the PHS documents the option sheet shows [69-1 Rally Wheels], [69-4 HD Brakes - Aluminum Front Drums], [69-5 would be both]. The Billing History Card shows 69-2 which is nothing so there must have been a mistake. I assume the original owner asked about the 8 lug wheels and ordered the Custom Wheel Discs (spinner hubcaps) because they were not available.
