1969 Pontiac GTO "The Judge"
This
is a rare opportunity to own one of the nicest factory Pontiac GTO Judge
Ram-Air III's left in existence. This is an authentic code 242 GTO
with the extremely rare special ordered code 72 Carousel Red paint and
"The Judge" option. The data plate shown in the pictures
verifies all of the information on this Judge. This hard to find goat is
fully documented by the Pontiac Historical Society, and is also in the Judge
Registry. This GTO was an original rust free Texas car that has always
been absent of rust and corrosion from day one. It was purchased
brand new from Taylor Pontiac located at 128 S. Lancaster Avenue in Dallas
Texas. I made the purchase in January of 2010 from the Auto Worx
Classic Car Museum in Hollywood Florida where it was admired for many years.
This is the first public offering, so take advantage and bid today. This true
Judge went through a meticulous full cosmetic and mechanical restoration.
The body panels were removed to be painted off of the car. The front windshield
and rear window were also removed. This was an accurate and correct
restoration to insure that the body would come out laser straight. The
factory original functioning Ram-Air hood has the awesome hood tachometer
option that works beautifully, and lights up well at night. The Ram-Air
III numbers matching Big Block 400 was completely rebuilt to factory
specifications. The original Turbo Hydromatic 400 transmission was also
completely rebuilt. This Pontiac GTO with the Judge option starts, drives, and
stops as well as the mileage showing on the odometer, although it can
not be verified as original. This car plain and simply runs, looks,
and drives like new. The head lights, bright lights, turn signals, emergency
lights, license plate light, side marker lights, and interior lights all
work as they should. The dual exhaust is entirely new with correct pipes
including the mufflers, and the correct chrome exhaust tips for the 1969 GTO.
This goat has power steering and the wood wheel is in pristine condition.
Anyone who knows these cars, knows how rare the center PMD horn button is. The
original dash pad is in mint condition, and the speedometer is
accurate with all the gauges working correctly. The factory options
include the unique Judge spoiler, rally gauges, clock, remote controlled
chrome drivers mirror, and power front disc brakes. The entire braking system
has been completely gone through to allow this goat stop on a dime. The
entire interior was reupholstered, including the bucket seats, rear seat, all
the side panels, carpeting, new door sills, and all new rubber gaskets.
This car originally came with an AM radio, but now has a
factory AM/FM, although the speaker needs to be replaced. The
original factory air conditioning is completely hooked up, recently totally rebuilt and blows ice cold. The original 1969 factory Pontiac owner's
manual is included inside the glove box. I tried to replace all of the
factory correct decals to make this Judge appear the way it did when it rolled
out of the factory onto the showroom floor back in 1969. This Judge rides
on a brand new set of four raised white lettered B. F. Goodrich Advantage
GT radials on the Pontiac rally wheels with all new PMD center caps, and all
new correct GTO lug nuts. The rock solid undercarriage was detailed with
black satin paint, and a new gas tank was installed. The trunk compartment
was coated with AC Delco black and aqua spatter spray, and then clear coat was
applied to make it appear factory correct. A nicely restored original jack
sits on top of a new trunk mat. There is a full size detailed rally
wheel spare in case there is a mishap on the road. With a quick tire change you
can be back driving looking complete in minutes. This GTO still has its
original "Safety Track" 10-bolt Posi-traction rear-end. The majority of
"The Judge" models had a manual transmission. This car is one of 1534
built with an automatic transmission making this particular Judge even more
rare and highly desirable with factory ordered air conditioning.
An exorbitant amount of pain staking hours, time, money, and effort
went into restoring this Judge to show quality status. The Nada Classic Car
Price Guide that anyone can look up on line has the 1969 Pontiac GTO with the
Ram-Air 400/366 horsepower engine, and the air conditioning
option currently listed at $156,465 in high condition, $67,905 in average
condition, and $33,885 in the lowest condition. The condition of this Judge
is virtually perfect, yet the reserve price is much less than the average
Nada value of this gem. This is a True Carousel Red beauty that I feel
confident when I say there will be no disappointments. This Judge is as close
to factory fresh as they come. I believe everywhere this car is driven, you
will be the spectacle of the neighborhood. This Pontiac is an investment
that will continue to rise as these cars have proven to consistently
escalate in value. This car is for the guy or girl that always wanted one back
in high school, or maybe wants to show off at their high school reunion to
prove how cool they still are. Here is a prime opportunity to acquire your
dream car. I try to list everything I
can think of when I write a description, so every potential bidder can make the
most informed decision prior to placing their bid. If you feel I may have
left anything out please ask as many questions as you like. I pride myself in
answering every question in explicit detail with the utmost honesty. Car is sold as is. Please call Rich at 804-339-0631 with any questions.

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative
Tue, 29 Oct 2013How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?
'67 Chevy Corvair convertible vs. '86 Pontiac Fiero in cult classic showdown
Fri, 22 Aug 2014Every few a decades, the folks running General Motors lose their minds briefly try to market a car that public doesn't see coming and often aren't ready for. In the '60s there was the rear-engine, air-cooled Chevrolet Corvair, then the mid-engine Pontiac Fiero in the '80s and the completely bizarre Chevy SSR in the 2000s. What all of these had in common was that they bucked the trend for American models of their era, for better or worse. The latest episode of Generation Gap tasked the hosts with finding two cult classic vehicles to choose between; they came come up with two of these quirky products from The General.
On the classic side, there's a 1967 Chevy Corvair Monza convertible. Being from later in the production run, it wears slightly more aerodynamic styling than the earlier, boxier examples. Hanging out back is an air-cooled, 2.7-liter flat-six pumping out a robust 95 horsepower. In the other corner is the somewhat more modern 1986 Pontiac Fiero SE with a mid-mounted, 2.5-liter "Iron Duke" four-cylinder, an engine nearly ubiquitous in GM cars of the '80s.
Judging by when they were new, the Corvair was far more successful than the Fiero with over 1.8 million sold. Of course, Ralph Nader's book Unsafe at Any Speed kind of poisoned the well, even if the poor safety reputation wasn't entirely deserved. The Fiero on the other hand only lasted for a few model years before shuffling off, but it eventually got its own performance boost with the V6 version and rather attractive GT models. Check them both out in the video and tell us in Comments which you want in your garage.
Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When 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.
