Vehicle Description
We can tell there was a lot invested in maintaining this 1969
Pontiac GTO Judge to keep it looking so good. Coming off of
long-term family ownership, it was a labor of love to keep it
handsome, fast, comfortable, and intimidating. Not only does it
have the best period-correct features like the hidden headlights
and four-on-the-floor, but there's also the best driver upgrades,
like four-wheel disc brakes.
That's the factory-correct code 73 Verdoro Green you see radiating
under our showroom lights. Earthy greens are always a great '60s
car color, and the modern professional respray means the clear coat
gives it a luster the factory never could. There has been a lot of
care in this coupe, because this has been owned by the same family
for 36 years. So the restoration was about getting this coupe
looking its best. The level of investment is apparent the moment
you get out in the sunshine and see the reflections are
distortion-free and the gaps are excellent all around. The original
vinyl roof was expertly deleted in the restoration, and so you
really get a smooth flowing shine down the whole body. This whole
curvy profile is highlighted even further by the full real-deal
Judge stripe package. Plus, with the hidden headlight front end,
dual hood scoops, and the big rear spoiler, it's one mean total
package. The intimidation factor is taken up another notch by the
large 18-inch Boze alloys.
The festival of green continues inside where the bucket seat
interior is quite inviting. The seat covers in both rows have a
great design that can only be highlighted on interiors in the best
condition. Nicely coordinated door panels, dash, and carpeting are
all part of this pristine green package. Plus, the wood grain on
the lower dash and three-spoke steering wheel furthers this upscale
feeling. But with the big round tach prominently in the gauge panel
and a Hurst T-bar shifter calling out for your right hand, you know
this coupe is more than just a looker.
Filling the engine bay is the big 400 cubic-inch V8. You can really
see the investment in making every inch of this engine bay look
amazing. From the bright chrome valve covers, to the correct
Pontiac turquoise on the block, to the bold red and white decal on
the Ram Air topper, everything looks like this GTO went back to day
one - very cool! And just like its first day on the streets, the
dual exhaust has the kind of rumble to warn the lessor cars out
there to take cover. The Muncie four-speed manual transmission
gives you full control over its thunderous soundtrack. But do more
than just listen to the exhaust; see where it comes from with the
undercarriage photos. Most people don't get to see under your car,
so when it looks this good, you know the investment was more than
just cosmetic. Although this one has likely not even done
double-digit miles since its restoration, it really was built to be
a driver. The upgraded alloys were specifically put on the car to
accommodate a set of slotted & vented four-wheel disc brakes. Plus,
with power steering and the grip of Bridgestone Potenza performance
tires this really is a true handler.
Complete with Pontiac Historic Services (PHS) paperwork, this is
the restored muscle car you've been looking for quite some time.
