Yes, a real GTO.
VIN  242177P164386

BC Car...Prince George area
Now in Calgary
400
Hurst Dual Gate

Nice resto several years ago. No signs of bad body work.
$7000 engine rebuild 3 years ago, and 3000 miles since.
Needs rocker moldings, and could use other chrome.
Window motors should be refurbed. (tired).

Have a Firebird on the way. Need to make room.
You can contact me at NitroTorque@shaw.ca
No lowballs please. This car is too nice, and I'm not desperate.
Thanks

Are you saying this is a GTO originally imported and sold in BC ?

I bought it from BC, and it has BC registration. It is currently sitting in my garage in Calgary.
I don't have documentation, but I was lead to believe that it was originally imported (from Pontiac, Michigan) and sold in BC...40+ years ago. I'm not a Pontiac expert, so if there's some flaw in that, then it's due to my ignorance.
Please feel free to correct me. I'm not trying to misrepresent this car in any way.
Thanks

Actually it is awesome that it was originally sold in BC. Buyers had to pay a substansial premium to get the car into Canada due to heavy duties, the very reason GM Canada never sold GTO's in the first place but rather opted to fill the A body performance line with the Canadian produced Beaumont Sport Deluxe.

Is there any way to confirm it's history?
Would customs keep that info?
Thanks

I believe the car would have had to be imported by GM Canada, so Vintage Vehicle Services in Oshawa would be the starting point in my opinion.

Start with PHS then try to do a title search, if that doesn't work ask the fellow who you bought it from, who hw bought it from, and keep tracking it that way. If not I have a friend in Van, who is in the insurance business, maybe he could track it with the vin.

Years ago I had the chance to talk with a guy who worked in the Pontiac MI plant from 65-68. He said the demand was such for GTO's it was common for dealers to ship cars from the Michigan plant so their customers didn't have longer waits. Other plants couldn't keep up and cars would go into areas that had a plant much closer.

I actually noticed that but figured since he posted that in 2009 and hasn't been back since, we are likely safe he won't sell it off here anyway!
