Vehicle Description
Professionally built and restored by Patrick's Classy Cars in 2019,
this 1969 GTO convertible is a one-of-a-kind Resto-Mod. Under the
hood is GM's supercharged 6.2-liter LT4 V8 engine producing a
factory-rated 650hp and 650 ft/lbs of torque. The V8 inhales via a
custom-built cold-air intake and intercooler and exhales thanks to
a set of Ultimate Headers with a full 3-inch ceramic-coated exhaust
system. The V8 also sports a Street Shop front accessory drive
system and custom-built coil pack covers with chrome accents. A
Quick Time bellhousing connects the V8 to a TREMEC TKO-600 5-speed
manual transmission with a .64 drive ratio and McLeod RST twin
street clutch. Completing the drivetrain is a polished 3-inch
aluminum driveshaft with billet ends and Strange Engineering
S-Series rear end with 3.89:1 ratio and Strange 31-spline axles.
The GTO rides on an Art Morrison sport chassis with an independent
front suspension, chrome control arms and C6 spindles. In keeping
with the Resto-Mod theme, the Pontiac features a Detroit Speed
power rack & pinion steering with Strange Engineering monotube
coilover shocks and chrome rear trailing arms. Stopping power is
provided by a set of 14-inch Wilwood brakes with 6-piston calipers
up front and 4-piston calipers in the rear. The GTO has been stored
in a temperature-controlled environment since the restoration was
completed.
