The top dog Pontiac of the muscle car era is the Ram Air IV. This
is 1 of the original 759 built, even less were 4-speeds. This one
really meant business, it was special ordered with a 4.33
Saf-T-Track rear! Very well documented with Pontiac Historical
docs, original window sticker, original owner's manual and pouch,
picture of the original owner with the car and a bill of sale from
1970. Total body off frame restoration done to factory specs
completed in 2021. It's the ultimate sleeper with no frills. The
unassuming appearance with it's colors and poverty wheels I'm sure
surprised more than a few people at the stoplight back in the
day!
EXTERIOR: The fit and finish is better than it was when it was new.
Every square inch is absolutely laser beam straight. There's no
rust, damage or bodywork showing. The front rubber bumper is in
fantastic shape, no damage and it fits precisely. Repainted it's
original Expresso brown, the metal flake is laid out evenly. The
clear coat is polished like glass. The vinyl top was replaced. All
the stainless trim is straight and polished. Correct chrome antenna
looks new, rechromed rear bumper. Grills and taillights look new.
Front and back windows are new. All new weather strips and window
seals. Correct T3 headlamps. It's sitting on a set of restored 14
inch wheels and poverty hubcaps with reproduction Wide Oval red
line tires, they still have the nubs on the tread.
INTERIOR: Like brand new from carpet to headliner. Down on the
floor is the correct Hurst 4-speed shifter. The seats have been
recushioned and upholstered, it has a fold down armrest. In front
in front of me the dash pad and deluxe wheel are new, it has
factory gauges and tachometer, all the knobs and heater controls
look mint, it still has it's original radio. New door panels,
armrests, window cranks. Overhead the visors and headliner were
replaced, the dome light works.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It is restored to factory specs. Like most, it
has an "SR" service replacement block. The heads, intake and
exhaust manifolds are correct Ram Air IV. The ram air is functional
and complete down to the heat shield and tube. The components look
like new. The metal surfaces are painted smoothly.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It looks brand new! Under the trunk lid and the
jamb have a glass finish. Inside is pristine metal with neatly
applied spatter finish. The weather strip, trunk mat and decal were
replaced. It has a restored wheel with a matching reproduction tire
and a complete restored jack assembly.
UNDERSIDE: It was body off frame restored and flipped on a
rotisserie. The metal under this car looks pristine. It's all
smooth, clean rust free painted a semi-gloss black. The entire
chassis is also rebuilt and detailed. It has the rally suspension
which includes boxed rear control arms and swaybars front and back.
All the suspension and steering front and back is replaced. It even
has correct spiral shocks. Correct reproduction dual exhaust system
with staggered size mufflers. The brake system was completely
restored: new lines, e-brake cables, hoses etc. The fuel system was
replaced including the tank and lines. Looking up at the motor it's
spotless, the starter looks brand new. It has a correct M21 Muncie
4-speed dated to this car. The Saf-T-Track rear end was originally
a 4.33, now has a 4.10 to make it a little more streetable.
SERVICE: We inspected the car and repaired a leaky drain plug,
replaced both head gaskets, repaired interior lights, replaced
spark plugs, adjusted the choke, replaced the thermostat, repaired
glovebox light, cigarette lighter and horns
This is the epitome of the muscle car era. It was purposely ordered
as a stripped down, no frills muscle car to tear up the streets.
Not many cars like this survived, today it's extremely sought after
and ultra rare. The documentation is indisputable.
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure
your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do
a walk around video that explains the car's condition in
detail.
