Motown that GTO was likely given away by an American station WKNR? CKLW or the "The BIG 8 " as it was known was across the river in Windsor Ontario. Back in 1964 GM did not import many American Pontiacs to Canada. They were too expensive with import taxes; this was before the Auto Pact. Canada had to make do with Pontiac's that had Chevy RAT motors. They had funny names like Beaumont and Parisienne Custom Sport. There was no "wide track" Pontiac as they all used Chevy platforms.
I would go look at the GTO for the sake of seeing it but if I wasn't going to keep it, then I'd go buy another Chevy instead...
