1969 Pontiac Gto Judge on 2040-cars
Owings, Maryland, United States
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). |

Florida man runs down bikers in traffic
Tue, May 31 2016A Florida biker and his passenger got a nasty surprise when a road rage incident turned ugly on Monday. According to WTSP, Joe Calderazzo was returning from a Veterans Memorial Day motorcycle rally around 5:30 pm with a group of fellow riders. During their ride, the group got entangled with an overly aggressive driver in a Pontiac. Abe Garcia of Tampa watched the silver Pontiac attempt to run the pack of bikers off the road, which started the altercation. The bikers caught up to the Pontiac in stopped traffic, and a shouting match ensued between the bikers and the Pontiac driver. At this point, Garcia pulled out his phone and started recording. The exchange escalated, and suddenly the Pontiac driver floored it, turned hard to the right, and ran over Calderazzo's Harley. The Pontiac mangled the Harley and knocked Calderazzo and his passenger to the ground. The Pontiac then fled the scene. WTSP spoke to Calderazzo as he was on his way to the hospital. "I thought the guy was trying to kill us obviously," said Calderazzo. "You know you don't know what's going through your mind. Is he going to put the car in reverse? Is he going to turn around? Is he going to stop and pull out a gun? You don't know what's going on." The Pontiac driver, a serial traffic offender named Robert Paul Vance, was picked up by police soon after the incident. He is charged with hit-and-run, a moving traffic violation, and aggravated battery.

Drive plays Smokey, Bandit with turbo Trans Am
Sun, Jun 28 2015The modern trend for powertrains can be summed up with the simple maxim: cut displacement and add forced induction. Whether you are looking at the just-introduced 2016 Chevrolet Cruze or a BMW M3, this adage holds true. However, Pontiac's attempt at the idea goes all the way back in 1980 with the Firebird Trans Am and its turbocharged 4.9-liter V8. Drive's Mike Musto takes out a 1981 example to explain what makes this largely forgotten muscle car so special, and it certainly isn't performance. While a 4.9-liter V8 might sound like a lot in the modern world, keep in mind that only few years before the second-generation Trans Am was available with up to a staggering 7.5-liters of displacement. Turbocharging of road cars in the early '80s was quite archaic by today's standards, and the Firebird only managed around 200 horsepower with this mill. Without much go, the turbo Trans Am made up for a lack of power with lots of show. As Musto points out, the famous flaming chicken adorns practically every surface you can see on the coupe, and boost lights on the hood illuminate when the turbo is spinning. Musto still finds a lot to like about the turbo Trans Am. He even calls it "Burt Reynolds as an automobile." Find out why the coupe is so special in this entertaining clip.
GM doing fine at retaining Pontiac owners
Fri, 28 Oct 2011This isn't the first time we've reported positive news about General Motors retaining former Pontiac owners. Get a few more stories like this latest report from Edmund's Auto Observer, and it will mark an ongoing positive trend for GM. Edmunds.com crunched the numbers to see how well the General is hanging on to customers after shutting out the lights at Pontiac, and it found that nearly 40 percent of Pontiac owners stayed with a vehicle from a General Motors brand.
The numbers are a little lower than an earlier R.L. Polk & Company study, but Edmunds says General Motors is keeping more former Pontiac buyers than it has since 2007. Most are turning to vehicles from Chevrolet, especially during January and February of 2011, when GM incentivized Pontiac owners to stay under the umbrella. Those moves seem to have worked, and 28.1 percent of Pontiac owners trading up made the jump into a Bowtie.
Buyers that have gone elsewhere have largely stayed loyal to Domestic automakers, with Ford picking up the most conquests from Pontiac, with 9.4 percent switching. Toyota and Honda picked up 7.4 percent of the pool of former Pontiac drivers. The numbers are defying any predictions that Pontiac buyers would completely exit the General Motors fold, and have climbed up closer to parity with the retention figures of other GM brands from a 2009 low of only 16 percent retention.
