1969 Pontiac GTO Judge for sale. Real Judge, non numbers- matching engine and trans. It was originally built in Fremont CA in July 1969 and sold by Porter Pontiac in Denver, CO. I bought it in Arizona in 2002 where it had been since at least the mid 1970's. Since I bought the car it has spent most of its life inside, under a cover, and has not been exposed to a drop of precipitation. I don't even use water to wash and detail the car. This car turns heads everywhere it goes.

The body is arrow straight. Frame, suspension, firewall, and body were all sandblasted and painstakingly painted about 5 years ago. I also had the chrome redone, found NOS door edge guards, and replaced the rear window and rear passenger glass with NOS. There are two small hairline cracks in the Endura and one place where the decal got scraped up front. I can't get them to show up in the pictures. It also got some work done to the quarters at some point in its history as you can see the welds from inside the trunk. The suspension was upgraded with polyurethane bushings, and I kept the vintage Cragar S/S 15" wheels although I do have a set of Rally 2's with at least 80% tread on the tires. The interior was originally parchment but is now black. There is a small crack in the dash (pictured). The car was originally a YZ automatic but at some point someone decided a WT block with #48 heads and an M-21 would be more fun along with hideaways and a hood tach. To that I added 1.6 roller rockers, Teflon valve seals, better pushrods, a custom (Pontiac blue) Qjet by Cliff Ruggles, a more aggressive cam, a copper head gasket, high volume oil pump, a high flow fuel pump, HEI, 3" ceramic Hooker super comp headers, a 3" X-pipe exhaust from Pypes, and some mild porting work and gasket matching. The M-21 was also rebuilt. I have driven it less than 10 times since all the body and mechanical work. It retained its stock XH code 3.55 Safe-T-track rear. It runs very strong. The hideaway headlights open and close with no sagging. The trunk stays up on its own.

The interior is in good condition but there are some things I have not gotten to. The Rallye clock doesn't work and the gauges could use attention as it appears there is stray voltage. The radio doesn't work. The odometer indicates 82,XXX but actual mileage is unknown as it sticks. I also have many extra chrome trim pieces, R-44S and R-45 NOS plugs, an extra steering wheel, extra marker lamps, some extra exhaust hardware, wheel bearings, etc. You will also get the custom-cut California Car Covers cover under which it has spent most of the last 10 years (indoor cover). Bottom line, this is a very nice car, that could be made much nicer and much more valuable with a little more work. Nonetheless this is a real GTO Judge, not a tribute or clone, and as such represents a value proposition. Given its original white on white color combination it's also relatively rare as Judges go. Get in to a real, rare Judge for a price that you don't need to commit a felony to afford!

Please ask any and all questions you might have via ebay/email or call me at (571) 329-3439. The car will be available to be seen this weekend in Owings, MD (20736).

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes

Thu, 10 May 2012

When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.

Junkyard Gem: 1980 Pontiac Phoenix LJ Hatchback

Sun, Jan 22 2023

The car-building world was rushing headlong into front-wheel-drive by the late 1970s, eager to reap the weight-saving and space-enhancing benefits of front-drive designs. General Motors designed an innovative FWD platform to replace the embarrassingly outdated Chevrolet Nova and its siblings, and that ended up being the Chevrolet Citation. The other US-market GM car divisions (except Cadillac) got a piece of the X-Body action, and the Pontiac version was called the Phoenix. Here's one of those first-year Phoenixes, not doing a very good job of rising from its snow-covered ashes in a Colorado self-service yard. Pontiac had used the Phoenix name on a luxed-up iteration of Pontiac's version of the Chevy Nova during the 1977-1979 model years, and so it made sense to apply that name to the Pontiac-ized Citation. Phoenix production continued through the 1984 model year (the Citation managed to hang on through 1985). Just to confuse everyone, the Nova name was revived in 1985, on a NUMMI-built Toyota Corolla. The LJ trim level was the nicest one for the 1980 Phoenix, and it included lots of trim upgrades and convenience features. However, even Phoenix LJ buyers had to pay extra for a three-speed automatic transmission instead of the base four-on-the-floor manual ($337, or about $1,291 in 2022 dollars). If you wanted air conditioning, that was another $564 and you had to get the $164 power steering and the $76 power brakes with it (total cost in 2022 dollars: $3,080). Affordable cars weren't so affordable back then, not once you started adding basic options. Both generations of the Phoenix had grilles influenced by those of the Pontiacs of earlier years. The base engine was the chugging 2.5-liter Iron Duke four-cylinder, but a 2.8-liter V6 was optional. This car has the V6, rated at 115 horsepower rather than the Duke's miserable 90 horses. The price tag: 225 bucks, or 862 inflation-adjusted 2022 bucks. The Phoenix was available just as a two-door coupe and five-door hatchback. The MSRP on this car would have started at $6,127, or around $23,469 now. That would have been a pretty good deal even after paying for the options, with the Phoenix's excellent mix of good interior space and solid fuel economy… but the Citation and its kin (the Oldsmobile Omega and Buick Skylark as well as the Phoenix) suffered from seemingly endless, highly publicized recalls and quality problems.

Win a car while supporting a charity this holiday season

Thu, Dec 9 2021

Autoblog may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Pricing and availability are subject to change. No donation or payment necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes.Â See official rules on Omaze.Â The leaves have fallen, there is a crispness to the air and there have already been multiple forecasts of snow, which can only mean one thing: We're coming up on Christmas. While you've been busy thinking about what kind of gifts you're going to give your loved ones, we here at Autoblog have been deciding which dream car we'd like to see in our driveway on Christmas morning. A car for Christmas does seem a bit extreme and expensive, but thanks to these Omaze sweepstakes, it doesn't have to break the bank. Here are the current sweepstakes we'd like to win this holiday season. Win a DeLorean DMC-12 - Enter at Omaze James Riswick, West Coast Editor: Let me be clear, the DeLorean is a pretty terrible car. Its speedometer doesn't even go up to the fabled 88 mph. Seriously, look at the pictures: tops out at 85. Also, who services a DeLorean? And how much would it cost to maintain one? $AlloftheMoney or just $MostoftheMoney? So owning it could be a total headache, but at least by winning one through Omaze, you'd be relieved of the financial burden of buying one in the first place. You'd also get the chance to own one of the most iconic cars of all time, one that transcends car enthusiasm and is instantly recognizable by everyone as the "Back to the Future" car. Plus, "everyone" doesn't know that the DeLorean was actually a pretty terrible car. So, I already own James Bond's car from 1995, why not Doc Brown's from 1985? Win a 2021 Bentley Bentayga V8 - Enter at Omaze Eddie Sabatini, Production Manager: Why am I choosing a +$200K Bentley SUV? Because even if I could afford one I'd never be able to wrap my head around spending money on one. So why not try to win one by donating what I can afford to a good cause? I first saw the Bentley Bentayga up close and personal at the Frankfurt Motor Show (I forget which year but I'll never forget this SUV). And although it looks like the Bentayga Omaze is offering up doesn't have the opulent tailgate setup I fell in love with when I saw it in Frankfurt, I'd still enter to win. Win a 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda - Enter at Omaze Byron Hurd, Editor: Few automotive marketing efforts stick out in my head more than the Mercedes-Benz holiday spots and magazine placements.
