Beyond its desirable factory equipment, trim and matching numbers engine is this GTO’s status as one of few that still retain their original body panels and floors as well.  The interior is highly original, including the restored upholstery.  This is a very special and perhaps unique example of one of the rarest and most coveted of all muscle cars.  With its combination of factory options, originality and condition, this is one 1970 Pontiac GTO that would be hard to duplicate. Asking $59,895.  All offers will be considered.  For all you trivia buffs out there here is some background information you may find interesting: While many believe the GTO name was inspired by the Ferrari 250 GTO Gran Tourismo Omologatto, officially the GTO was designated as the Grand Tempest Option. The 1970 was facelifted slightly, but still had the split Endura bumper, now with a boxed center section like the Firebird but with four headlights. The fenders were creased above the wheel wells and the rear bumper and taillights wrapped around the sides. Why is the Pontiac 400 engine so special?  Pontiac took a 389 block used in the high-performance Catalina, as well as the Lemans and GTO, and punched it out to an even 400 cubic inches. The result is an engine that provided massive amounts of low-end torque and rock steady high RPM power output. The 400 produced 360 horsepower with a single Quadrajet four-barrel carburetor.
