Details: Beautifuland#44; interestingand#44; and extremely rare - the 1973 Pontiac GTO was a one-year-only style with only 4and#44;806 ever produced. So the bold paintand#44; A/C interiorand#44; big 400ci V8and#44; and extra performance components makes one of the rarest GTOs out thereand#44; and one of the meanest for the money.


The right Pontiac offers plenty of speedy good looksand#44; as well as a dash of premium in its appearance. Thats why we know youre attracted to this coupe. There have been some serious investments to get this car into superior condition. The high gloss yellow looks incredibleand#44; clinging to the A-body sheetmetal with hardly a ripple or wave to be seen. The black vinyl roof might show the luxury end of this Pontiacand#44; but the front NACA ducts leave you with no question about its performance car nature. This hood artfully ends in the split grille up frontand#44; with a Pontiac chevron in the centerand#44; and simple GTO badging - just the way theyve been doing it since the first one hit the streets in 64. The same goes for the artful use of brightwork. Minimal trim means the emphasis stays on the body curves. But as a true American cruiserand#44; theres still flash from the mirror-like chrome bumpersand#44; which match the shine of the 17-inch torque thrust-style wheels.


Bucket seats in a full-sized A-body would become an endangered species in the years to comeand#44; but in this GTO theyre part of the factory package. Todayand#44; they still look a fresh as if this was 1973and#44; and the coupe was sitting in the Pontiac showroom. The center console looks just as freshand#44; and everyone loves the look of how the wood paneling from here matches the accents on the door panels and dashand#44; for a true 70s premium feeling. This quality continues on the three-spoke steering wheel with even more wood trim. Beyond that is a nice set of round factory gaugesand#44; which is joined by an auxiliary trio to give you the most accurate readings. Butand#44; the features youre going to love the most starts with the power windows. With the touch of a buttonand#44; you can have all the windows downand#44; and then crank the original AM/FM stereo for some period-correct cruising. And because the air conditioning is blowing coldand#44; you can stay cool while looking cool.


When you open the hoodand#44; the subtle blue glow of the engine block lets you know the right kind of V8 is in the engine bay. And with the rest of the components looking so honest and clean (right down to the shining Pontiac air topperand#44;) its the kind of honest presentation you can be proud to show off. But there are some upgrades to this oneand#44; too. The 400 cubic-inch V8 already has serious power to keep this GTO motoringand#44; but now it has received go-fast upgrades like an Edelbrock Performer intake and long tube headers. That last one not only adds powerand#44; but also it gives added growl to the dual exhaust w/chambered mufflers. The TH400 three-speed automatic transmission and 10-bolt rear end can easily handle all the power you want to put to the streets. But theres another side to this GTO. The automatic transmissionand#44; combined with power steering and front disc brakesand#44; also means you also have an easy any time cruiser.


You can call this car a bumblebee or a goatand#44; but reallyand#44; its rarity almost makes it a unicorn. Thats why you know you need to hurry before this one-year-only GTO is in someone elses garage. Call now!!
