Pontiac "Jury"?
As per usual, some kook came out of the woodwork at the local car show sunday spitting new facts I have not heard of before. (my daughter says we are all kooks with undiagnosed adhd - she may be right).
Anyway, he was talking about the Canadian built judge/jury that I have never heard of before, altho my mammary isn't as good as it used to be. 😒 Was it really a thing? I thought all GTO's/LeMans were US built ->  https://fastmusclecar.com/the-rare-1...oogle_vignette

Pretty sure it's been discussed on these forums a long time ago. I think it was a dealer thing, maybe one, maybe a local dealer group. Like 69 Firebird Comanche (were there 68 Comanches?) from somewhere around Hamilton I think. I first heard of the Comanche at a mid-80s Carlisle meet, ages before the common internet.

Real shame Stampede Motors didn't order all these '70's with L78 400 4bbls.

/\ agreed.
IIRC there was a Texas (?Arizona) dealership that made the 'Magnum 400' which was essentially this car, but with the 400/4bbl engine... MUCH cooler in my opinion.

The Magnums were from Knafel out of OH.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
