What is your rare or unusual option?

Gasman, rather than start a new topic, add to this one (as it has alot of responses to rarest options topic) so as to simplify searches in the future:

BTW, this is the first time I see a heater delete on a 69 GTO..Thanx!

[Gasman]

Ooooppps sorry

That thread is for 68-69 options from what I could tell, how about options for 70 -72,??? love to see them !

[DavesGTO]

on the left is the headlamp delay option for '70 only i think. on the right is the rear lamp monitor option available '70-'72.

The original owner, in the US, of my 1970 Judge ordered LH vanity mirror......

I have a 1970 GTO that came from the factory with about 30 options. A few that I think are fairly rare are A46 power left bucket seat, C89 Dome reading lamp, D98 Body stripes, KO5 block heater, P17 spare tire cover, and C49 Electric rear defrost (heat grid in the glass). I think the most rare of those options is the Electric rear defrost. I live in Canada and have seen countless 1970 models over the years but don't recall seeing another with this option. Most like my 70 Judge had the rear blower motor. BTW 1970 was the first year for the C49 option on a GTO.

A freind years ago had a 70 hardtop with the convertible frame (part of towing package)

[Held for Ransom]

Printed in "The Legend", Dec. '06, 2,236 LeMans (I'm assuming GTOs too) received the electric rear window defogger. It shows a listing for the heavy duty frame, but no numbers are listed for '70.

not sure about '70 or '71 but in '72 when you have the rear defrost and a/c the cars came with 80 amp alts. that used an idler belt pulley that most people got rid of when the pulley bearing went bad. hard to come by these days. i had to have my power seat motor and relay re-wired as the motor was tired and the relay was bad. pricey things to have redone. i will make sure in the future that the seat track is properly lubricated to hopefully give the motor a long service life.

How about a 1971 4 speed Judge with electric door locks and power seat back releases? These options were together in a package. UPC# AU5/552. Pretty unusual.

[gregsgtos2]

how about a 1 owner judge ragtop.just got it home wednesday night.matador red,parchment interior,black top.all numbers matching,original drivetrain.1 of 29 automatic cars built.

[RAM AIR 1967]

I think that the idler belt pulley was used on the 80 amp alts. on Firebirds only not on GTO.

[RAIVJUDGE]

My 71 Judge has the electric rear window heater and G60x15 HoneyCombs. The G60x15's and electric rear window heater are called out for in the PHS docs and broadcast sheet.

[DavesGTO]

i hope i won't need that idler pulley as the bearing is bad and i don't think it will be easy finding a new one.......

[RAM AIR 1967]

The bearing in the pulley is the same one in the alternator.

[DavesGTO]

wow, that's great news. does the 80 amp and the standard alternator have the same bearing? if not which alternator bearing? thanks for the help!........

[70ram4]

1970 o.o. judge ragtop 4 speed loaded with 24 options the wierdest being recling bucket seat

[RAM AIR 1967]

All GM alternator bearings at this time are the same part ####.

i think alot of the 71 judges had this. my blue one that is just like a few others (yours, old pinion head roger, the first one built and a few other blue ones) has this. when i first bought the car and it had roll up windows and power door locks, i thought the original owner must have been a paranoid skitzo. (worried he might drive off a bridge and the windows wouldnt work if they were power and had to have power locks in case someone tried to car jack him he could quickly lock them).
