[@josephgeorgeejr7039]

Look like a really nice platform to start with for a restoration, i love 70 gtos, i was actually born in back seat of a 70 gto in 1979!! Green judge!!

[@domcacciola4205]

Your son is doing a great job. Give him a raise

Yes. He's got a very steady hand.

[@eddiesopala4444]

Looks like the car in the opening credits of . Dazed and confused.. one of my All time favorite movies .🤟🏻👍🏻

[@waltereturner]

I was coming to say that, all they need is a bowling ball.😂 Beautiful GTO...

[@marty5782]

No bowling balls

[@jeffreylindley845]

The missing needle on the TAC is worth at least 1000 off.😂

[@mzaccagnini7179]

WOW THE HORN actually works. AMAZING!

[@charlieandhudsonspal7031]

Thanks, I’ll get it right this time 👍

[@itotost]

Just a heads up. Those glass fuel filters can unscrew and cause a fire. Thanks for all the videos.

[@DanaBellefeuille]

amazing car its 54 years old

[@mikekellogg57]

Nice that you and your son out doing these together, memories for life, seems to be a good kid, even detailing these old beauties, something I bet a lot of others wishing they could do

[@nixwix3811]

I like that GTO with the 455, thanks for the ride Nick!!

[@jonesrobert1]

Nick you have a chip off the old block! The young man is doing a wonderful job.

[@andreamills5852]

24:03 That little squeak sounds like a rocker arm could be rubbing the valve cover ? It happen sometimes if you put a bigger cam in and don't check the lift or clearances. It also could be the electric fuel pump making the squeak .

[@tonytrumble]

Liam is doing a great job Nick! He's definitely a great addition to your team!

[@MapleMotorsNickSouthgate]

I think so too!

[@gerryhuff4624]

I❤ the car, imperfections and all!! I 👍 like having your son work there, and he's doing a good job 👏

[@Original..22]

Nothing works on it but we want 35k lol

[@AuchNein]

No kidding. Not a real Judge and many things don’t work..I’d give this one a max of $25k.

[@randyjennings6412]

That is pretty much average price for running and driving 70 GTO

[@raymondtipton7243]

Thats a big spoiler...too big n my book lol

[@allengreenberg786]

That’s how a lot of there cars are you pay 30,000 dollars and still needs many thousands of dollars work it’s ok if you want to spend a lot of money on a old sports car I would rather buy a newer corvette that needs nothing which I did

[@kharnthebetrayer1575]

My buddy got a 68 Camaro in February…… resto-mod , beautiful car had 1,100 miles on it …… no shake down sat for 10yrs so far he has spent almost 5k just fixing little things.

[@mikeradie7758]

This is an awesome hot rod, i gotta believe that the dang horn will work 💪

[@LivingOnCash]

Nice car and great color! My personal taste would be get rid of the clown shoe sized wheels and rubber band tires and put some proper '70s style big meats on the back! To those complaining about stuff not working on the car, if everything worked including the A/C this would be a $50K to $70k car. At the asking price, you can easily fix the little stuff and get the a/c working for very little cost even if you had to pay a shop. I think you could be in it for around $40K and have a really nice ride.

[@alexr4208]

I used to see these cars driving around town when I was very young. I always wanted to drive one.

[@tonywalkingstick8883]

Love this car. Just a few minor adjustments, and all can be well. I think the cough was from the exhaust leak. Have wanted a GTO for a long time. Love Maple Motor's.

[@stephenw5647]

Your videos are great! Love seeing all those sweet muscle cars. Video quality has improved steadily, nice intro music, and information is easy to absorb.

[@tonytrumble]

I know that if i could afford it I would buy this car 100%!! I had a real 71 GTO JUDGE CONVERTIBLE and although this isn't a convertible and its a Judge tribute, I'd die a happy man cruising around in this beautiful beast. It brings back so many beautiful memories!! 10:36

[@ralphfraggetti2086]

They had one in the not too distant past same color and around 5k less

[@tonytrumble]

@@ralphfraggetti2086 yes it was a convertible judge tribute.

[@vinnybruce2874]

I love GTOs I might put my Firebird on my KZbin channel to spice things up on my channel when it's fixed halfway.. That's the good stuff...

[@rockyfbenedetto2029]

Nice car always was a fan of the 70 pontiac keep up the great work

[@mastergunnerysgt1258]

Here is another eye popping GTO, that needs a little love to bring her back up snuff and price is there for that to happen.

[@mikeswartz3146]

Hell yea.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😮😮😮😮😮😮😊😊😊😊

[@d.davis2009]

Your Son Is doing a great job. Way to go Liam. Hope I spelled your name right

[@eddiesopala4444]

Gotta watch that movie tonight… next should have that nova that Ben affleck was driving, with trunk full of beer.🍻🤣

[@Original..22]

Ben drove a primered duster

[@DubVinC]

Pontiac GTO.. awesome american muscle.

[@araglogameplay]

love the new intro! would love to see all of em like that! that GTO looks sweet!

[@wolfie1726]

You keep on doing what you are doing I enjoy your videos 👍🏼

[@MapleMotorsNickSouthgate]

I appreciate that!

[@robertwilliams3983]

If I remember correctly, the choke is adjustable. That probably caused the shudder at take off. The choke flap possibly closed too much.

[@shaggyofwv]

The fake JUDGE stickers would have to go. I had a 2005 GTO that was a great car, but I used to see people put Judge stickers on those as well. 😂 This is one of the best looking cars you guys have had recently.

[@charlesrussell569]

Man that is a beautiful car!

[@Eddie-yc5yd]

That's a beautiful American muscle car.

[@maddpeanut6313]

Warren Oates is looking down and smiling. “when the 455 came out with the Mark IV Ram Air and a beefed lower end and a Carter high-rise setup, I was on line. 390 horsepower, 500 foot-pounds of torque… whatever that is. It’s all in the folder right there in the glove compartment if you wanna take a look at it. Oh, she’s a real road king, alright!” - GTO Two Lane Blacktop

[@GoldSeals]

This is the model of car that was in the Movie,Two Lane Blacktop with Warren Oates driving.

[@Inspector-71]

No, that car was the real deal, and a heck of a lot cooler

[@ralphfraggetti2086]

Nick , why would you not put a belt on to see if a/c would work? Also would love to see if back windows go down flush on all cars that have them !

[@terrencegiordan9812]

There is no pulleys for the a/c belt to go on the idiot took the factory pulleys off.

[@risinbison1106]

Few little details would add more value. Tach, radio, windows are an easy fix and things people expect to work. An AC belt is $20 and it’s summer, people will question if it even works. Small detail but it bugs me, the steering wheel is out of a firebird and doesn’t fit the style of the interior. Other than that it’s a beautiful car and looks like a lot of fun.

[@bcostello]

beautiful car, love the '67 thru '70 gtos

[@MapleMotorsNickSouthgate]

Right on!

[@tonytrumble]

Omg!! I seen so many people who don't know squat about vehicles. Hey people yes its a tribute but that spoiler is a NOS unit, its the exact spoiler Pontiac put on the Judges. I know because i had a 71 GTO JUDGE Convertible. Wish this one had the honeycomb wheels that were optional in 71. Nice car Nick that needs just minor items.

[@charlespeakjr2168]

YearOne Automotive.👍🏾

[@ricketysplit1]

I think it might be vapor lock. I had a gto a long time ago when ever it got hot and humid I had the same problem. The fix is putting a close line pin on the rubber fuel line.

[@ALFAJERKBFH]

Would be nice if all fixed up. Cool body style.

[@jimmieclark9127]

People try to get you upset on the net Nick because you're truthful keep up the good work keep moving them cars they don't understand the word CLASSIC CAR NOT FROM THEIR BACK YARD PEOPLE PUT MONEY INTO THEM THAT HATERS DON'T HAVE 😅😊 KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK BRO.

[@6creed933]

It's worth every penny!! Young man is doing a great job!!

[@jimmysexton4201]

Stance is jacked up!

[@johnsheetz6639]

I know you would get a copyright strike but it would have been cool if you pulled into the parking lot playing Sweet emotion like the beginning of dazed and confused!

[@waltereturner]

I was thinking that also!!!

[@Wj33333]

Thats a nice one man!

[@l.s.451]

Kickdown hooked up?

Holy Moly! this one is 🔥🔥🔥

[@andreamills5852]

23:03 80's era Ford interior light ? LTD --Mercury Marquis ?

[@wti70]

Factory Pontiac optional dome light

[@SpookyFow]

I'd have to get some rally li wheels for it. It just doesn't look right without them.

[@RobertArmstrong-kc9ee]

Love it needs a little bit of work definitely maybe about 3 to 4 grand and it would be perfect

[@marnav9205]

Better inspect closely underneath for rust and bondo.

[@terrencegiordan9812]

Nick did you notice it has a electric fuel pump on the drivers fender well.

[@ScottBleck]

Amen Nick, I dive my Chevelle every day, cars should be driven. If you want furniture buy a couch, drive your cars guys letting them set does more harm. Especially with today's fuels, carbs don't like corn.

[@eddiesopala4444]

Randal Pink Floyd’s . El Camino with the kiss statues🤣🤣

[@ScottBleck]

OMG 😮the gauges work, what, that's a first.

[@DavidPerez-oj2dv]

NICE MY DAD HAD A CUTLAS WITH 350 ROCKET I'M GLAD THEY CHANGE THE STEERING WEEL ON THIS ONE I ALWAYS TOLD HIM WHY THE STEERING IS SO BIG ON THESE CARS HE SAID SHUT UP BOY AND DRIVE

[@joetallon4968]

Seems like yesterday that these were everywhere!

[@jerrywelter6375]

Someone put this together and didn't really gof if it was road worthy. Entry level at best.

[@gerryhuff4624]

Nice!!❤❤

[@brianglade848]

Nick,how's the weather.....I'm pushing the soup cart from Chicago.....I'm halfway thru Indiana

[@lloydbellis7360]

Sweet ride, couple of niggly bits, but easy fix. Boy is doing a great job 👍 Thank you 😎😎😎👍👍👍

[@jmarconi248]

Wires hanging down right in front of the gas pedal 😩

[@allmightygreat1892]

Show the hood view and street when driving so we can see what its like to drive the car. Your old videos showed over the hood view when driving

[@ralphrambert6698]

Your son did a great job 14:11

[@l.s.451]

Camera skills 👍👍

[@tren380]

Man…trust me I love the old muscle cars but a good chunk of these cars you’re showing casing are basket cases of someone else’s problems and you’re paying a premium to take them on. I wish you guys would do a little bit of fixing on these so they run right, they aren’t pouring gasoline out all over like a previous video….etc. Put your best foot forward, don’t make it so easy to pick these cars apart. It just damages your brand.

[@DaleBlice]

Nice goat cruise able right now put a stereo in fix AC fix exhaust leak and you'll have a nice car

[@55555711]

I think your son doing great 👍good job man work hard build that money up don't worry about girls till you build your money up I wished I did I worked hard but I always worried about girls 😅

[@DanaBellefeuille]

cords on tires is sticking out sigh,, but really a nice car.

[@victormontano7148]

I would drop it a bit more in the rear and replace the wheels with some rallies if I owned this ride.

[@edvardteath5951]

Red storm ladder. .. 🚤 cool ✊

[@Inspector-71]

Someone really cut some corners on this build, can't believe the horn actually works compared to the other electronics, looks good from afar, but the spoiler is gawdy, and on these cars, the stock wheels that would have come with this model just look and fit the car better that modern aftermarket wheels. The price tag for this clone is a bit dear

[@jjojo2004]

Bro! The rear spoiler is gaudy? How old are you? 13? 😂😂😂😂😂 That spoiler is the factory rear spoiler for all 1970 to 1972 Pontiac GTO and Lemans cars. You knew this, right?

[@Inspector-71]

​@@jjojo2004it's a bit wider that factory no? A 13 yr old would probably like this car

[@JamesCrisp-iq4cs]

Does it have a dust cover for the flywheel😂

[@blackreacher]

Shape of the car, with the lines, and front end, sweet. Had to be the beast back in the day

[@richardj.chaparrosr.9810]

Frig the gaters ❤

[@tamront1656]

Still available?

[@jonp4846]

Nice car!

[@rafaelrivera2860]

Nick I thought your son was peso pluma a Mexican singer sensation

[@ErnestHaymer]

Number one

[@ChicagosM0stWanted]

Pontiac horns always work! 🤣😂🤣😂

[@lazyboyandtherockers8050]

If this car was on Mecum or B.J. the price would be $90K+. Maple Motors gets cars and prices for us guys that can't afford those high prices. So what if it needs a little tweaking, paint flaws, headliner...HORN!.... You put couple thousand in that or any car that M.M. has and you're on your way for an awesome project or driver. You will have your dream car at an affordable price. Nick said, "Groovy"!!! Ha!!

[@mattdehart7744]

This car with all its flaws would not be @ Mecum or Barret Jackson let alone bring 90k.

[@Scalihoo]

If you're a shy person & don't like to get noticed...dont buy this beauty. 🙂😉

[@ashesofthephoenix4605]

That car is too cool Bro"! Have you ever gotten a real "The Judge" on your lot? Ever since I saw that movie "Sex Drive" I've been wanting one.

[@ErnestHaymer]

I see you

[@70skid67]

I am the worst at horns.....but at finding cars I'm 💯💯....bc I choose maple motors of Hendersonville TN..,..who knows a cream puff of Nashville TN ?

[@rubberbumper5747]

Dazed and confused opening scene right here

[@MichaelStowell-q4k]

Should drop a 428 into it.

[@mzaccagnini7179]

It was probably not warmed up all the way.

[@beachykeen95]

absolutely !

[@eddiesopala4444]

Oh my fault.. I always get those 2 cars mixed up.🤣🤣

[@vinnybruce2874]

I play video games myself... Xbox and ps5 also the best racing games myself is Forza.

[@jonathansongco4302]

Classic.

[@tonytrumble]

I would 100% have those cutouts removed

[@butchsanders6113]

A little TLC and let's ride 😍🥰👍

[@jimmieclark9127]

Oh by the way I trim the interior the same color as the car and leave the silver trim too oh boy picture that😊 beautiful

[@TobyBaker-hz3rw]

First flaw: wheels.😁

[@Tartan1206]

They look awesome

[@charlespeakjr2168]

I'm not sure, but they look like 17 in or 18 in Rally II Wheels from YearOne. A lot of replacement parts for the 1964-72 GTO can be purchased from either YearOne or Classic Automotive.😊

[@hillbillyhomestead1966]

What's your point thouse wheels look better than anything you have

[@TobyBaker-hz3rw]

😂 You can like them all you want. Some people bought pet rocks back in the 70s too.

[@davidlairson7998]

This car of course won't last long. Somebody is going to be a proud owner of this beautiful car.

[@olskool3967]

she has the mighty turbo 400 down under,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[@classiccorvettesmusclecars5846]

What’s weird is Pontiac calls this color carousel red…

[@mattdehart7744]

In 1970 the color was called orbit orange. '69 was carousel red.

[@randylenart9674]

Nice car
