We can tell there was a lot invested in making this 1969 Pontiac GTO look so good. Packaged with period correct features and the original 400ci V8and#44; its handsomeand#44; fastand#44; comfortableand#44; and intimidating... all the elements that make the GTO a timeless legend. With all the optional luxuriesand#44; including ACand#44; multiple national awardsand#44; and tons of documentsand#44; you know you have a winner on your hands. The subtle code-40 Mayfair Maize hardtop and black vinyl roof give this a premium vintage appearance that could pass for a simple cool cruiser. In factand#44; the level of investment that went into the paint and new top might just stun people into momentarily believing that this is only a well-restored luxury cruiser. The body panels remain straightand#44; the rear chrome bumper is shiny andamp; completeand#44; and the Endura front bumper continues to look correct andamp; color-matched. Of course you wont be able to keep up this ruse too long. The correct G-T-O badges that inspire fear in lesser cars are present on each side and easily seen. Plusand#44; the optional hideaway headlightsand#44; hood scoopsand#44; and Rally II wheels with the PMD (Pontiac Motor Division) center cap remind everyone who is really king. The factory-correct parchment bucket seat interior is quite inviting with nicely detailed seat covers that showcase the always-interesting Pontiac design motif. Plusand#44; the woodgrain paneling on the center console and dash further this upscale feeling. Of course you want to drive your classic so the thick black carpeting and floor mats mean you dont have to take off your shoes before hopping in for a ride. You get the Pontiac three-spoke steering wheeland#44; and just ahead of that is a tri-pod round gauge design with the speedometer prominently in the middle. As you look out over the driver-oriented controlsand#44; this highly original coupe reminds you of what a premium Pontiac looked like back in the day. But while this looks like a time capsuleand#44; the modern R134a air conditioning will keep you cool like no 60s machine ever could. One look at the 400 cubic inch V8and#44; and youre again reminded this GTO is all about honesty and originality. It wears the correct Pontiac Turquoise paint with prideand#44; and it sports a chrome air cleaner lid and valve covers (after alland#44; Pontiac knew its customers would be showing off their engine bay.) Best of alland#44; this 1969-correct YS block is the original motor. Pontiac rated the big V8 at 350 hp right out of the boxand#44; and theres an added kick from an Edelbrock intake and four-barrel carburetor (the original intake is part of a host of spare components that come with sale.) And no matter how you decide to run this V8and#44; the sweet rumble of the dual exhaust lets everyone know you have serious power under the hood. This one handles its performance nicely thanks to the stout TH400 three-speed automatic that sends power to the 10-bolt rear end. Plusand#44; handling is done right with power steeringand#44; disc brakes up frontand#44; and BF Goodrich rubber at all four corners. This GTO comes with a ton of documentationand#44; including the dealer invoiceand#44; build sheetand#44; original bill of saleand#44; reproduction window stickerand#44; build receiptsand#44; restoration photosand#44; and Pontiac Historic Services (PHS) paperworkand#44; so you can show everyone all the authentic pieces. Such a well-assembled package is surely to win awards and surely wont stay around here long. Call today!!! |
