During the 1970s, the Muscle Car era was standing at its pinnacle. One of the meanest street machines at the time was the Pontiac GTO. With this listing, we are going over not just any GTO but the Judge model. In the early ‘60s, the GTO started off its legacy as a Pontiac LeMans owing to the American engineer and inventor John DeLorean. The second generation of the GTO saw a sub-model called the “Judge” that was more expensive than the standard. It was offered for only three continuous years, making it a relatively rare model. What we have here is an example of the 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge that is currently located in New Jersey. With just 17,000 miles on its clock, this beast is available for sale with a build sheet and some original paperwork.
The fiberglass front-end design of the 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge shed the big huge chrome bumpers that were weighing these cars down. The judge was initially offered only in carousel red, which is the color our subject car is also wearing. GTO Judge Graphics adorns the vehicle's fenders. The RPM gauge placed on the hood is the party piece of this car, and an Air Foil rear wing adds to its sporty appearance. This beast rides on 14" wheels wrapped in Firestone Wide Oval tires and is equipped with power front brakes. The interior of the car also benefited from the Judge package, a main feature being the Hurst shifter with a unique T-shaped handle. This wood-trimmed cabin is fitted with front bucket seats and a rear bench seat, creating space for four adults. Floors are covered with Judge carpets, and the glovebox displays the Judge emblem.
This 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge is propelled by a 400ci V8 Ram Air III powerhouse that is able to produce 366 HP out of the factory. A 4-speed Manual Transmission that is mated to a Safe-T-Track Limited Slip Diff sends power to the wheels. Power steering makes it convenient to maneuver the car while a reported rear main seal replacement in 2022 ensures worry-free engine performance.

The Pontiac GTO was the work of a team of automotive greats. John DeLorean, Russ Gee, and Bill Collins came together to circumvent a General Motors ban on auto racing by their divisions. The trio’s thinking was that while Pontiac couldn’t go racing, there was nothing to stop the brand from creating street performance machines that individual owners could race themselves. Cue the GTO’s arrival for the 1963 model year. With a name inspired by the legendary Ferrari 250 GTO, Pontiac’s GTO would go on to become a symbol of the muscle car segment. If you want a slice of the action, check out this first-generation 1966 Pontiac GTO that’s for sale right now, having covered 1,700 miles since the restoration so far. The car has undergone a rotisserie restoration, as reported by the current owner, who’s had it since 1995 and includes many powder-coated components for longevity.
An automaker has got to be quite bold when naming a car after a classic French city and a legendary 24-hour race. That automaker was Pontiac, when they revealed the LeMans as a stand-alone model in 1963. Previously, the LeMans was the top trim level for their Tempest model. Produced over six generations, the LeMans is now a highly sought-after classic, particularly first and second-generation models. Our featured 1965 Pontiac LeMans GTO is a lovely first-generation model that awaits a new owner having reportedly traveled under 28,000 miles. Let’s discover what it offers and why you should add it to your collection.
There is no doubt that Pontiac's 1960s-era cars would not have been as exciting as they were without the vision, insights, and pure determination that GM's automobile engineer and executive John DeLorean had. He and his creative team of automotive designers and engineers transformed ordinary cars into intriguing vehicles. The 1969-1970 Pontiac Grand Prix was a great example of this. The Grand Prix was first offered for the 1962 model year. Pontiac created this sporty personal luxury two-door car to compete with Ford's Thunderbird. The Grand Prix from 1969 to 1970 was available in two models, Model J being the base model. What we have here is a 1970 Pontiac Grand Prix Model J with 38,500 original miles on its clock. It has all servicing up to date and you get three keys and the original owner's manual with the sale of this car.
Our subject car here takes us back to the ’60 when muscle cars were thriving. The American brand Pontiac was doing well for itself with its models like the GTO, Firebird, Catalina, and Bonneville. There were few models under their belt, which didn’t rise to fame like the others. They include the 2+2, Grand Prix, Star Chief, Tempest, and LeMans, and all of them share the company's robust V8 engines. After Pontiac was discontinued, these models found their place as highly desirable collectibles today. Needless to say, this 1967 Pontiac LeMans is also one of the rare classics that you don’t come across every day. Belonging to the second generation of the LeMans, this car bears one of the most powerful engines available for its time.
The Pontiac Catalina was Pontiac’s full-size offering between 1950 and 1981. The Catalina was initially a trim offering on the automaker’s Chieftain, before becoming its own nameplate. Pontiac made the Catalina with many body styles, including a sedan, station wagon, convertible and coupe. This 1963 Pontiac Catalina Sport Coupe is probably the sportiest offering of the line-up, and it looks fantastic, having just 38,300 miles on the clock. The current owner reports that the car was recently appraised in June 2024 as well.
The second-generation Chevrolet Corvette (C2) is where the legendary Corvette inherited its sharp lines and looks that are still used to this day. This new design over the first-generation Corvette did not only present itself with a spectacular view but also newfound handling prowess. The new lighter body meant this convertible found more acceleration than its predecessor, even though the power remained the same and the new suspension significantly improved handling. All the 1963 cars came out with 372 ci engines, making 250 horsepower as standard, with optional variants like this particular restored model we have for you today, which can produce a whopping 340 horsepower. All this excitement for the second-generation Corvette resulted in an increase of 50% in units built compared to the then-record-setting 1962 version. This made the C2 an automotive icon of the past and present. We’re told that this 1963 convertible American beauty, for sale in Rosamond, California, has only done less than 1000 miles on the odometer after restoration. The current owner also reports that the numbers are matching for the motor and transmission, however documentation cannot be provided.
The Chevrolet Impala has played the role of the Bowtie’s flagship full-size car for years. Produced over ten generations, the Impala was first introduced in 1957. Named after the eponymous African antelope, the first generation was strictly a two-door affair. Buyers could choose a coupe or convertible. If you’d like to own a classic Impala but with a bit more pep up and go, this 1958 Chevrolet Impala is a worthy contender. The car comes with an upgraded engine, but remains otherwise stock as far as possible. That makes it a lovely classic car to own and drive, but something to surprise other classics with when the mood strikes.
Chevy’s El Camino is iconically known for its coupe utility body style. Basically, the coupe utility combines the ride comfort and handling of a car’s monocoque construction with the versatility of a pickup truck. Adapted from a Chevy two-door station wagon, the El Camino appeared in 1959, to compete with Ford’s Ranchero. Five generations of El Camino were made until 1987 when the nameplate was quietly retired. If you’ve always been intrigued by this pastiche of coupe and pickup truck, consider picking up this 1980 Chevrolet El Camino as your next classic. This 53,500-mile example comes to you with all maintenance reportedly up to date, so it’s basically a buy-and-drive classic.
