1970 Pontiac GTO Red Hardtop LS3 6.2L V8 4 Speed Automatic

Description

Frame Off Restored GTO Restomod 480hp LS3 V8 Automatic 12 Bolt Posi PS PB /// Combining 6.2 liters of LS power with a smooth, 4-speed drivetrain and striking red and black aesthetics, this gruff ground-pounder draws big crowds and big compliments! Fully sorted and ready to roll, this authentic 242 GTO dresses all-original sheetmetal in exuberant 2-stage that, while reminding of Pontiac's glorious Carousel Red pigment, no doubt sinks a bit deeper. Hoist the hood and you'll find 6.2 liters... of small block fury that, along with much of the car's sorted mechanicals, was professionally installed by Classic Conversions by Speed Inc. Officially known as the GM Gen IV LS3, that all-aluminum mill creates a respectable 480 horsepower. At the center of the car's floors, a 4L60E 4-speed, assembled by Finish Line Transmissions, makes excellent use of a 3,600 RPM Yank Performance stall converter. That gearbox spins a heavy duty aluminum driveshaft, which twists a posi-traction differential around a tough 12-bolt axle that's finished with Strange 3.73 gears. Stopping is a cinch thanks to two Wilwood calipers and a duo of factory drums. Factory-style power steering complements a fully rebuilt suspension that's finished with a beefy Hotchkis sway bar. And at the corners, Nitto NT555 Extreme ZRs, sized 255/45ZR17 and 285/40ZR17 respectively, lap gorgeous Year One Rally IIs. Open the car's solid doors and you'll find a conservative Black interior that's stylish and very livable. There's a quartet of original seats that's wrapped in restoration-fresh vinyl. In front of those seats, a monochromatic dash founds original telemetry next to a hidden Sony CD player that kicks crisp Hertz speakers. At the bottom of that dash, a fresh console traces a factory shifter. And the driver traces the road through an aftermarket Formula Steering Wheel. Life is just too short to drive something boring.
