1970 Pontiac Gto on 2040-cars
Carrollton, Missouri, United States
This GTO is a documented California delivery with a rust free body. The Atoll Blue paint was finished in Dupont
Chromabase B9808K Alt 1 and Dupont Premier Clear in the summer of 2005. The body lines are excellent and the fit
and finish is superb. The chrome and bright trim is excellent and both the exterior mirror and rear bumper were
replated.
The Engine:
The 400 Cubic Inch Pontiac V8 is original and was rebuilt in 2005 with about 90,000 miles on the engine. A Missouri
Performance Engine Shop did the rebuild to Ram Air 3 Specs with Ram Air 3 Camshaft. Other performance upgrades
include Pro Rebuilt Carburetor ($399) and Ram Air factory headers and ultimate exhaust kit ($740.00) The engine
starts right up on the automatic choke with an awesome rumble. The big V8 performs flawlessly, carries 60-80 pounds
of oil pressure with no smoke and no leaks. Take a look at the engine bay images... all correct hoses, hose
clamps, fittings, and even factory decals are correct. The air conditioning system is complete and works
perfectly... my meticulous friends even restored the original California Evap Emission System... AMAZING!
The Interior:
The matching blue interior of this GTO is nearly flawless. The dash and dash pad are perfect! All the lights and
switches work perfectly including the A/C and all of the power windows. All the gauges work perfectly except the
odometer is stuck. The center console is excellent, the headliner is superb, the front buckets and rear bench have
no noticeable wear and the blue carpeting is nice as well. The front passenger floor mat could use a cleaning. The
sport steering wheel and horn button are excellent. The interior has two non stock upgrades... they are an under
dash Air Fuel Ratio Gauge ($200) these gauges are an excellent tool when tuning a vintage muscle car, and the stock
AM radio was upgraded to stereo with I-pod compatibility by S&M Electro Tech ($430)... this upgrade is invisible
and the I-pod connector cable is accessed through the ash tray... very nicely done.
The Transmission:
The automatic transmission received a complete rebuild in July of 2006. The transmission shifts crisply and handles
all the torque of the big V8 with no leaks or evidence of slippage.
The Trunk:
The trunk is in excellent stock condition with no evidence of corrosion or damage. Stock spare tire, jack, and hold
down hardware are present as well as jacking instruction decals. Trunk seal is in great condition.
The Chassis:
Take a look at the photos... a rust and damage free frame, new fuel tank, new free flow exhaust, new shocks,
springs, sway bars, and brakes, four new PMD wheels and 4 very nice BF Goodrich TA Radials. The car drives and
handles like a new car.

General Lee takes on Bandit T/A in classic Hollywood car showdown [w/poll]
Fri, 26 Aug 2011You don't have to be born in the 1960s or 1970s to be able to recognize the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard and the Pontiac Trans Am from Smokey and the Bandit. These old school four-wheeled stars seem to transcend demographics thanks to the miles of film that show the orange 1969 Dodge Charger and the jet-black 1977 Pontiac Trans Am performing seemingly impossible stunts.
The folks at Hot Rod magazine are obviously hip to this fact, and they put together a fun video in tribute of the instantly recognizable duo. Hit the jump to watch on as Sam Young and James Smith replace Bo Duke and The Bandit for a bit of dirt-road shenanigans in a pair of otherwise well cared for classics. We're not so sure we'd call it the best chase scene ever, but it sure looks like a lot of fun.
More importantly, which of these two cars would you rather own? Have your say in our poll below.
Sci-fi movie Jinn features car designer, Firebird-bodied Camaro
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you're an automotive engineer being tormented by an immortal being made of fire, then wouldn't you think it best to have a custom coupe called the FireBreather for your getaway car? That's the FireBreather in the image above, adorned by the red wings that once fronted the Pontiac Firebird, running away from a black cloud of evil in a trailer for the movie Jinn.
The Jinn is eternal evil, always waiting for the chance to make things float across rooms before going on homicidal urban rampages. The FireBreather is a Gen-V Chevrolet Camaro - from the V6 to the ZL1 - that's been through Classic Design Concepts' extensive list of exterior and interior modifications, including entirely new front and rear fascias and side skirts, sway bars and springs, Pirelli P Zeroes and an available Edelbrock supercharger.
The movie - FireBreathing chase scenes and all - was shot in Monroe, Michigan. You can watch the trailer below, but since the FireBreather only get a couple of seconds on screen, you can find out more about it on Street Legal TV and its official site.
1969 Pontiac GTO Judge vs. 2006 GTO, which Goat gets your vote?
Mon, 08 Sep 2014The Pontiac GTO was perhaps the most iconic muscle car of the '60s and early '70s. With its beefy V8 and color palette screaming for attention, it summarized in a single vehicle everything that made the era so appealing to many young people. Pontiac tried to collect just a few drops of that aura again in the 2000s with a revived GTO, but with decidedly mixed results. The performance was still there with its big V8, but the looks never quite lived up to the powertrain. Now, Generation Gap wants to know which of these Goats is the one to own.
Things are skewed immediately because the 2006 GTO here is a real ringer. It comes from famous tuner Ken Lingenfelter's collection, and it's a one-off example partially fettled by GM Performance boasting a twin-turbocharged LS2 V8 with a claimed 750 horsepower and a wide-body kit. This Goat definitely isn't what you're going to find just browsing for one to buy in the newspaper. Still, dip the throttle just a little, and this GTO pulls like a freight train. It's enough to turn the two hosts into giggling schoolboys behind the wheel.
The '69 GTO Judge here is also out of Lingenfelter's collection, but this one is all stock with a 400-cubic-inch (6.6-liter) V8 and a Ram Air hood for a claimed 366 hp. It might not have the unbelievable power of the turbo '06, but it makes up for it with style to spare.
