Vehicle Description
This 1970 Pontiac GTO loves to enhance its history. It's refinished
in a correct bold color and has extra power added to its
numbers-matching 400 V8. So this is exactly what you want in an
authentic and memorable muscle machine.
The '70 GTO is quite a brazen performance coupe, and so this is
exactly how you want it to look. Cardinal Red is a 1970-correct
color, and this example was upgraded with a professional respray
later in life. So the bold color has a glow that radiates in both
the sunlight and moonlight... and that means you'll love to be seen
in it any time. It's part of an outstanding package with good
panels, good lines, and a mirror-like rear bumper. So you already
know this is a terrific coupe before you look at all the
GTO-specific pieces. The color-matched Endura front end, twin hood
scoops, and quad exhaust tips are all designed to give this one a
proper look of intimidation. The upgrade to polished Ridler wheels
adds to the bright overall presentation, and their 18/20 inch
front/rear stance adds to the intimidation.
There's arguably no better color against the exterior red than a
deep black interior. There's an immediate feeling of quality thanks
to a restoration investment that includes the dash, door panels,
seats, and headliner. And as a true GTO, this one focuses on the
driver. It includes high-back bucket seats, a center console
in-between, a floor shifter, and auxiliary readouts. The grippy
three-spoke sports steering wheel is on a tilt column to give you a
clear view of the large round gauges with speedo and tach. And
while there's upgraded driving music with the AM/FM/CD stereo, we
all really know the best soundtrack begins under the hood.
The dark and tidy inner walls of the engine bay funnel your
attention to the V8 in the middle. This is the numbers-matching 400
cubic-inch motor, and the callout on the air grabber and bright
turquoise block may give you the first impression that this is a
stock setup. But if you dig just a little deeper, it reveals an
even more potent muscle car powerhouse. It now has Edelbrock
Performer aluminum heads, an aluminum intake, and topped with a
Demon four-barrel carburetor. And a nice set of Doug's headers adds
even more muscle while contributing to the rumble of the H-pipe
dual exhaust. This is a powerful package, but it's also meant to be
easy to enjoy. That's why the TH400 three-speed automatic
transmission is both stout and smooth. Plus, there's the right
sports car rear suspension with stronger boxed arms and a sway bar.
You've also got more great driving features, like power steering,
power brakes, front discs, and the grip of modern sport tires.
This is the vibrant-looking and solid-driving GTO you've been
waiting for. The sale also comes with great documentation like
build receipts, reproduction window sticker, maintenance records,
PHS Documents, and restoration photos! So don't let it slip away,
