FOR YOU PONTIAC DUDES, 70 GTO RAM AIR 4 PICS

[Mr. Chevy]

My friend and co worker just finished a frame off restoration on this 70 GTO. The car is a real ram air IV car and he told me that there were only about 690 of these made. He has owned the car since he was 16 and is now in his early 40s.

He located the original, numbers block from a guy in the Akron, Ohio area a few years back. The body color is originally atoll blue which is what color it is repainted. Has a 4speed, black bucket seat interior.

Car was bought new at Llewellyn Pontiac which was in Lorain, Ohio. The motor sounds hairy... Car is going up for sale and will be at Best of Show Automotive in Mentor, Ohio on display/consignment.

I snapped these pictures of the car Saturday afternoon at his garage. He did not mind if I posted the pictures, so I thought someone would like to see them, plus everyone likes pictures!! I am not a Pontiac Guy but this car really looks nice and stands out!! I certainly would love to own it!! Very Nice Car!!

Enjoy... Rich

Nice Rich. Those RAIVs are bad boys. Great color!

Nice car, original engine too is awesome as the vast majority of these cars lost them very quickly, when new.
I do wonder why did they put the Judge stripes on, though?

Shouldn't a GTO,(especially a RA IV)have power front discs, like an SS96? Just wondering.

Steve and others, I asked him the same thing and he stated that the striping could have come on these cars from the factory. He stated this particular car did not have it on the build sheet, but the stripes could have been put on by the dealer as well when the car was new which would not obviously show on the build sheet. He stated he researched this with all the Pontiac "GURUS" before doing it.. He said it was an extra addition that he wanted to put on the car..

I like the stripes personally, I think they add a lot to the body... I don't know about the spoiler or the non disc brakes however.. I'm guessing they are correct though, like I said he researched alot before doing the car.. I know he wanted it all factory correct...
