Default GTO in Colorado

Hi all, my name is Greg, and I live in Boulder County. My lifelong dream of buying a brand new GTO came true two weeks ago when I scored a black 06. I'm a big Pontiac fan, I also own a '69 Judge, a '66 GP, and a '79 Lemans Safari stock car (really!). I came across this forum and I like it so far. I look forward to all your input towards any future mods for the new ride...and there will definitely be mods!

The race car is below. I'll see about photos of the others, but I'll tell you in advance: The Judge is in pretty sad shape, it needs a TOTAL body resto, and the GP hasn't been driven in years. I was gonna restore the Judge this year, but a impromptu trip to the Pontiac dealer changed that plan for now...no regrets though!

Ever travel through Glendale? I see a black gto from time to time, but doubt it would be you. Who knows though.

Need an engine for your judge? I have a freshly rebuilt 389 I might be able to part with. I just cant remember if it was out of an '66 gto, or a '69.

If you ever want to get rid of that judge, just let me know.

No, haven't taken the car near out of Boulder County yet. Jeez, there hasn't been a nice day since I got the car. As far as the Judge, it has a motor-464 CI, ported heads, .530 hyd cam, Hedmans, and a bunch of intakes, even a Doug Nash tunnel ram. I have lots o' parts, this was my first car. Sorry, not for sale EVER. I do need to sell a couple Buick musclecars though...

I'll ask around to see if anyone needs a 389. Must br a '66, that was the last year. I sell parts, so I know quite a few gearheads. Hope to see you around!
