This amazing 1970 GTO Judge Convertible-tribute Coming out of a private collection.

 

The 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge was one of the most potent muscle cars of the era, and surely one of the most outrageous in terms of styling. There were approximately 37 real 1970 GTO judge Convertibles with the powerful 455 built. With bright colors, stripes, and a rear wing, it gave the Judge a unique look that was backed by equally stunning performance. But with prices for real Judge convertibles running in $100,000.00’s the outstanding tributes are a great value.


The ultimate 1970 Judge Convertible color arguably is the Cardinal RED which was a Judge trademark that looks amazing on the GTO's aggressively styled ragtop bodywork. Everything is smooth and slick, with a lot of time invested in getting it all smooth and shiny, and thanks to modern paint technology, the color probably pops a lot more than it did in 1970s. Pontiac's revolutionary Endura bumper gives the front of the GTO a unique look with their traditional split grille, and when combined with chrome headlight openings and Ram Air vents on the hood, this car definitely looks aggressive.
 With the special Judge graphics, rear wing out back, and quad exhaust tips it gives this Judge power and authority!


A red bucket seat interior with the “HIS/HERS” shifter console works perfectly with the cardinal red presentation.. pegging the aggression meter while still keeping the luxury and comfort for which Pontiac had become justifiably famous.

New red seat covers, door panels, along with new  carpet and carpet custom GTO logo floor mats that match the red carpet gives her the “new car look”.

 

 The dash offers three deeply recessed instruments, but there's no tach because it is mounted out front on the hood ………the most desirable Judge option of all!  

 

 This stunning Judge Convertible has its factory installed “ice cold ” A/C!

 

She has the original AM/FM  push button radio in the engine-turned dash as well as a custom designed and installed multiple speaker and sub-woofer hidden in the trunk high powered surround system. The head unit and volume subwoofer control in hidden in the glove box and the power amp and sub-woofer are custom installed in the side trunk panels.

 

 She adorns a brand new factory black power convertible top/glass rear window and has the factory boot.

 

Performance is effortless thanks to Pontiac's muscular 1970 455 cubic inch V8, which specializes in torque production. From the Ram Air hood scoops to the Pontiac Turquoise paint on the block, this one has been factory detailed correctly, and the condition of all the under hood components displays that the work is not only high-quality, but recently done.

 

Power steering and power disc brakes are included, and there's a tough TH400 3-speed automatic transmission behind the engine handling gear swaps.

 

 The floors are nicely finished with satin black paint, not undercoating, so there's nothing to hide, and both the gas tank and exhaust system are brand new. It rolls on correct Pontiac Rally II wheels and fat fire Hawk Indy 500 radials!

Details

The restoration was completed on a rust free car and has always been kept in a  garage.  The paint is nice with a few flaws and imperfections that don’t show up in the pictures.  It does shines like a mirror.  The chrome and stainless are beautiful!  

The Pontiac 455 “date coded” engine (NOM) is fresh and runs very strong.  The engine bay is highly detailed and its appearance is factory correct.  It is fitted with factory exhaust manifolds.  All new plug wires, new battery, hoses and belts have been added.   It rides on correct Pontiac Rally II rims in excellent condition with new BF Goodrich T/A radials. 

The matching Red interior is new…..vinyl, carpets, door panels, sport steering wheel, etc. There are no cracks in the dash or steering wheel.  The car starts drives and handles amazing and “tracks straight as an arrow.  It is mechanically very sound and I can see no evidence of it ever being wrecked.

The correct pattern black convertible top is “brand new” and installed with the “glass rear window”. 

Underneath is very nice and clean including new front disc brakes & lines, exhaust system and the new 323 posi differential.  The frame is excellent.  All the glass is very nice, all the gauges, lights, wipers, turn signals, horn all work as designed.  The panel fit on the fenders and doors is excellent.  The trunk is detailed.  The rims are in great condition and the tires are like new. 

 

The 1970 GTO Judge Convertibles are the most sought after muscle car and in this color combination and the quality of the restoration, represents an excellent value for the asking price.  I encourage you to come see it and test drive this car or just call me for a phone walk around.

GM replacing passenger airbags in over 243,000 Pontiac Vibes

Sat, Jun 20 2015

General Motors is repairing over 243,000 additional examples of the 2003-2007 Pontiac Vibe in the US and Canada to replace their Takata-supplied passenger-side airbag inflators. The company has no reports of irregular deployments in the models, though. These aren't actually newly included vehicles in the massive safety campaign. As a twin to the Toyota Matrix, the Vibe was already included in Toyota's figures, but as Pontiac-branded vehicles, GM dealers are taking care of these replacements. They have been covered as part of the Takata campaign in the past. Toyota expanded its own Takata recall to passenger-side components for 1.365 million vehicles on June 16. Earlier, General Motors also issued a campaign for 330,198 examples of the 2007 and 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD, 3500HD, GMC Sierra 2500HD, and 3500HD pickups to replace their passenger-side parts. After exposure to moisture, it's possible for these inflators to ignite too quickly in an accident and spray shrapnel at occupants. GM Statement The Vibes are included in two Toyota recall campaigns - one for high absolute humidity (HAH) areas and one for non-HAH areas. Both are considered national recalls even though only vehicles in certain HAH states and territories are in the recall. Total Pontiac Vibe passenger air bag numbers for MY 2003-2007 (U.S. and Canada only): High Absolute Humidity 89,719 Non High Absolute Humidity areas 252,685 These are the totals, which include about 99,000 previously recalled. GM knows of no field issues - irregular deployments - with these air bag inflators.

General Motors Recalls Nearly 780,000 Cars To Fix Deadly Problem

Thu, Feb 13 2014

General Motors is recalling nearly 780,000 compact cars in North America because the engines can shut down unexpectedly and cause crashes. The company says six people have been killed in crashes related to the problem. The recall affects Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s from the 2005 through 2007 model years. U.S. safety regulators say the weight of the key ring and rough roads can move the ignition switch out of the run position, cutting the engine and electricity. If that happens, air bags may not work. GM says there have been 22 crashes from the problem. All happened at high speeds. Dealers will replace the ignition switch for free. GM says owners should remove nonessential items from key rings until the problem is fixed.

Junkyard Gem: 1997 Pontiac Sunfire SE Convertible

Sun, Mar 5 2023

For the entire 24-year production run of the GM J platform (best known for the Chevrolet Cavalier), the Pontiac Division offered new J-Body cars for sale in the United States. First there was the J2000, followed in quick succession by the 2000, 2000 Sunbird and Sunbird. The Sunbird stuck around until the Cavalier got a major redesign for the 1995 model year, at which point Pontiac changed the car's name to Sunfire. Today's Junkyard Gem is one of those early Sunfires, a top-of-the-line SE convertible with the optional big engine and manual transmission. The Sunfire was an extremely close sibling to the same-year Cavalier (by the late 1980s, all the other US-market GM divisions had dropped their J-cars, which meant no more Skyhawks, Cimarrons or Firenzas), quite difficult to distinguish from its near-twin at a glance. The base engine for the 1997 Sunfire convertible was the pushrod 2.2-liter straight-four that powered so many J-bodies of the 1990s. That engine produced just 120 gnashing, valve-floating horsepower, not much by late-1990s standards. For a mere 450 additional dollars, however, the 2.4-liter Twin Cam engine and its high-revving 150 horses could be had by '97 Sunfire buyers. That's what's in this car. This is one of the members of the Oldsmobile Quad 4 family, though some fanatics will yell at you if you apply that name to the versions that don't have big QUAD 4 lettering cast into the valve cover. This is the most powerful engine ever used in production Sunfires. For 1997, Pontiac offered a four-speed automatic transmission for no extra cost in the Sunfire convertible. Buyers of all other Sunfire models that year had to shell out either $550 or $810 ($1,026 or $1,511 in 2023 dollars) for a two-pedal rig. That means that the buyer of this car really wanted the five-speed manual transmission (or just hungered for the $810 credit offered in the fine print for takers of the manual). Plenty of free-breathing engine power, five-on-the-floor driving enjoyment and the open skies above. What a fun car! This one made it to nearly 180,000 miles. For this car with the Quad 4 under the hood and a clutch pedal on the floor, the MSRP was $18,539 (about $34,584 today). Its Cavalier LS convertible twin with the same engine/transmission setup cost $17,365 ($32,394 now). This car has a bunch of options, including the 15" Rally aluminum wheels, so the out-the-door price would have been higher. The last year for the Sunfire was 2005, same as the Cavalier.
