I'm 54 and very lucky that my Dad worked for Pontiac Motor Division as a district sales manager when I was a kid. I grew up riding in GTO's, Grand Prix's, Firebirds and the occasional Lemans or Bonneville. I bought my first GTO at 19 years old in 1982. I traded a 77 Vega and $500 for a 1970 GTO with a spoiler and judge emblem on the glove box. I loved that car and wanted to find out more about it so my Dad gave me a name and number to call in Michigan. He said they could look up the invoice for me. It turned out to be 1970 Ram Air IV automatic Orbit orange with black interior. The drive train was long gone and replaced with a 72 GP 400. The Ram Air stuff was all gone except the pull cable bracket and open scoops. I sold it to help pay for an all original Ram Air III 69 Judge.
