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.

Toyota urges owners of old Corolla, Matrix and RAV4 models to park them until airbags are replaced

Mon, Jan 29 2024

DETROIT — Toyota and General Motors are telling the owners of about 61,000 older Corolla, RAV4, Matrix/ Pontiac Vibe models to stop driving them because their Takata airbag inflators are at risk of exploding and hurling shrapnel. The urgent warning Monday covers: Certain Corolla compact cars and Matrix hatchbacks from the 2003 and 2004 model years. RAV4 small SUVs from 2004 and 2005. Also covered are about 11,000 Pontiac Vibes from 2003 and 2004, which are essentially the same as the Matrix and were made at the same California factory. Most of the vehicles are in the U.S. “If the airbag deploys, a part inside is more likely to explode and shoot sharp metal fragments, which could cause serious injury or death to the driver or passengers,” Toyota said in a statement. Owners can go to nhtsa.gov/recalls and enter their 17-digit vehicle identification number to see if their cars are affected. If you're not the original owner of the vehicle, the manufacturer's recall letter might not reach you, so be sure to do the VIN check. The recalled RAV4s have Takata driver's airbags while the Corolla and Matrix models have them on the passenger side. The Corolla and Matrix also are under a separate recall because their airbags can be deployed without a crash, the company said. Both companies said owners should contact a local dealer instead of driving the cars in for repairs. Dealers will provide options such as mobile repair, towing the car to a dealer, or vehicle pickup and delivery. Takata used volatile ammonium nitrate to create a small explosion to inflate airbags in a crash. But the chemical propellant can deteriorate over time when exposed to high temperatures and humidity. It can explode with too much force, blowing apart a metal canister and spewing shrapnel. At least 26 people have been killed in the U.S. by Takata inflators since May 2009, and at least 30 have died worldwide including people in Malaysia and Australia. In addition, about 400 people have been injured. The exploding airbags sent Takata of Japan into bankruptcy. The potential for a dangerous malfunction led to the largest series of auto recalls in U.S. history. About 100 million inflators were recalled worldwide. Recalls Pontiac Toyota Takata airbag recall

Junkyard Gem: 1987 Pontiac Firebird

Sat, May 9 2020

From 1967 through 2002, the Pontiac Division offered the Firebird, close sibling to the Chevrolet Camaro. By the third generation, which debuted for the 1982 model year, it became more difficult to tell the two F-body cars apart at a glance and the Pontiac-exclusive engines of the earlier years disappeared, but the Firebird still retained its own personality and its own position in the GM marketing hierarchy. I still find the occasional 1982-1992 Camaro as I search car graveyards for interesting stuff, but the corresponding Firebirds have become scarce in recent years. Here's a base-engine-equipped '87, its Bright Red paint (yes, that was the official name for the color) faded by the Colorado sun as it awaits the crusher. Firebird shoppers had their choice of three engines in 1987: A 5.7-liter Chevy V8 (210 hp), a 5.0-liter Chevy V8 (205 hp) and the same 2.8-liter 60° V6 that went into the Fiero and countless front-drive GM sedans (135 hp). This car has the base engine. The third-gen F-body didn't weigh much (3,105 pounds for the '87 with six-banger, about what a 2020 Corolla weighs), so 135 horses was tolerable. Plenty of these cars got T-5 5-speed manual transmissions, but this one got the two-pedal setup. Camaro wheels, of course. Our Friend the Carburetor didn't disappear from new cars until the early 1990s in the United States, though electronic fuel injection had become very commonplace by 1987. Still, GM considered this car's EFI worth a door-handle brag. It's not worth fixing up a mashed six-cylinder third-gen Firebird, so we can see the route this car took to its final parking space.

Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.
