The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"95 percent. needs very little to be complete show quality car. all pans were professionally replaced in 04 at the same time a dakota digital dash was installed and a turbo 400. later someone put 373 gears into the posi rear end. pontiac historical lists the car as a firebird 350 that was originally the rare limelight green. if i keep the car it will go back to that color but i'll add black t/a stripes and keep the t/a look.i'd rather see someone else have it, though. i had a 71 poncho 350 built last november and i've driven this car so little that i only did the first oil change about a month ago.the headliner needs to be finished and a couple of bubbles near the fender louvers need to be cleaned up and touched up eventually. install an a/c if you want to. i didn't , i did install a 1000 watt amp and a box with two 10 inch subwoofers to fill the sound from the sony 6x9's out a little better. turn heads wherever you go and you don't have to rev the engine to get the looks."

i traded a 69 torino gt convertible for this car knowing the engine was blown.  it's just clean and it has some records of what had been done to it.  when you buy these old cars you don't get much documentation usually.

anyway, i went through two pontiac motors that had bad blocks before i found one that had been machined and the owner never picked it up.  i bought it and between the three engines i had the brackets, timing chain covers etc.  i picked up a few things from butler performance and jegs.
it's a 71 350 .040 over with heads that were milled.015 or .020 (i can't remember) in 06 when it was abandoned.  since it's .040 over instead of .030 over i'm guessing this is a second build and the head may have another .015 off of them too.  that would make 6 to 7 cc's gone from the giant combustion chambers and would bring the sug up from 7.6:1 to maybe 8:1 c/r.  still runs fine off of pump gas.  
the body is in 99 percent condition.  a couple of chips and a bubble or two.  the interior is in 80-90 percent.  they stopped when they were doing the headliner and there are a coupl of small cracks in the dash.  everything works.  lights wipers etc.  the driver side bright bulb doesn't burn and the passenger side front turn signal doesn't blink (probably a bulb and i'll fix it this weekend if it is).  all glass and chrome is in very good condition, window fels are in good condition, glass all goes up and down.  it's a really nice car.  it could stand a coat of wax because it hasn't had one in a year.
buyer is responsible for shipping.  500 dollar PAYPAL ONLY deposit is required immediately after the sale and is non refundable.  the balance is due within three days of the end of the auction.  if you can not follow those rules please don't bid.  i had this car sold before and the buyer didn't want to use paypal but would wire me the money after i handed him my banking information.  not going to happen.  don't waste our time or mine trying to scam me.
this is a nice car, i have people stopping by every week claiming they want to buy it.  i've turned down 15,000.  i know what it's worth.  i play with these old cars all the time.  you don't find them this straight outside of barrett jackson very often.
i will consider partial trades.  i need a one ton flatbed for my farm.  must be clean and have everything in working order. don't care if it's gas or diesel.

Jay Leno tries out a 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge that looks factory fresh

Tue, Jan 31 2017

The latest machine to show up on Jay Leno's Garage is arguably the most iconic Pontiac GTO, the 1970 Judge. The example here is a radically red model and features all of the nifty Judge features, such as the mega-size rear wing, hood-mounted tachometer, and ram air hood scoop. The latter of which had a panel in the hood that would open up at full throttle to let in all that cool air from outside. The car is owned by the Wade Kawasaki, president of Coker Tires, a company that specializes in reproducing classic tires. Not surprisingly, his GTO features a set of the company's Firestone Wide Oval tires. That particular tire would have come with the car originally, but these new versions are built like modern radial tires, rather than the slippery bias-ply originals. The tires are indicative of how Kawasaki restored the rest of his Judge. Everything has been taken back to factory-spec. It has a stock, 400-cubic inch V8 that makes a supposedly underrated 366 horsepower, and it's complete with the chrome valve covers and foam intake seal. The tires are accompanied by exact replica GTO Judge wheels. The car even has the true, original interior. Somehow, the upholstery, dash, and other interior components survived in excellent condition. Check out the video above for more details on this flashy muscle car, as well as some reminiscing about the "good ol' days," and some history on the origins of the car's name. Related Video:

Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO

Mon, 24 Jun 2013

Here comes the Judge. Court is in session. The verdict is in. How many more tired clichés can we come up with? It hardly seems to matter, because it's happening: Trans Am Depot has announced via the teaser video below that it is launching a 2014 GTO, complete with Carousel Red (bright orange, really) paint and full Judge badging.
The car is based on Trans Am Depot's 6T9 Goat, which, in case you don't get the reverential references, is meant to mimic the look of the 1969 Pontiac GTO. As with the company's other cars -including the 2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am we recently drove - the GTO will be based on the current Chevy Camaro, which means two doors, V8 engines and rear-wheel drive, just like the muscle cars of days past.
As for actual details of what's under the 2014 GTO's hood, we're completely left hanging. We'd expect some sort of power adder (turbo, supercharger or possibly some other form of a highly massaged version of the Camaro's V8), and we certainly know that GM has any number of hi-po crate engines to choose from.

Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later

Fri, 12 Sep 2014



Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
