Vehicle Description
There are few real-deal 1970 Pontiac GTO convertibles out there -
less than 3,800 were produced that year. So when you're looking at
one that has an unbeatable color combo, sold V8 power, and some
nice extras, this rare drop-op is your ideal cruiser.
Baja Gold is a great period-correct color and it is in fact this
car's original shade, Resprayed in 2016, the result is a
convertible that looks radiant in the sunshine but not so fancy
that it feels like you're taking precious metal out onto the
streets. That means this muscle car is also a driver's car. We like
the idea of that because the GTO was built on the idea of the kind
of car that was built for enjoyment. And it makes a powerful
statement with details like the dual hood scoops, Rally II wheels,
and quad exhaust tips. Plus, black looks terrific against gold. So
we love the look of the roof when it's in place.
If you like the way this looks with the roof in place, then with
the flip of a switch, it powers down to reveal a full black
interior. So you get the well-done color combo with the top up or
down. The inside follows the theme of the outside where it knows
how to be stylish, and that being driver-quality means being
driver-ready. And because you'll want to cruise this GTO, there are
nice additions like a retro-style AM/FM stereo, upgraded speakers,
and provisions for R134a air conditioning (it will need servicing
to blow cold again.) And there's a true driver's machine feel. That
means bucket seats up front, a center console in-between, a
wood-rimmed steering wheel, and a tilt column to give you a good
view of the full set of round gauges. Plus, there are nice extras
like the auxiliary readouts cleanly mounted in the console and the
iconic hood tach.
Under the hood is a 400 cubic-inch V8. This mighty motor inhales
deeply with a four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with a nice
tune out of the X-pipe dual exhaust. It runs with the right cruiser
attitude to make this a nice total package. There are also the
right cruiser features, like power steering, power brakes, front
discs, stronger boxed rear arms, and sway bars front & rear. It all
makes for a great all-around classic drop-top.
The sale comes complete with nice extras like a car cover and a
black convertible boot. This is the rare and driver-ready drop-top
GTO you've been waiting for. Don't let it slip away, call
today!
