I have owned my 69 GTO convertible for 50 years this July........From the factory it was Crystal Turquoise like the car in this video but with a white top and Parchment interior. In 1972 I was going to college at the University of Texas,with orange being the school color. I wanted an orange convertible musclecar and decided my favorite choice would be an orange 69 GTO Judge convertible. After looking for 6 months for one, I realized I wasn't going to find one..(back then I didn't know that they only made 108 Judge covertibles and that only about 20 of them were painted orange (Pontiac called it Carousel Red). Back then there was no internet and they weren't being advertised in Hemmings, so finding one of those 20 cars for sale back then was like finding the Ark of the Covenant. After giving up looking, I bought my Crystal Turquoise ragtop and a wrecked Judge hardtop and moved all the Judge equipment over to my convertible and painted it Carousel Red and voila I had a 69 orange Judge convertible. My car has not been wet since 1975 and has no rust repair or patch panels with straight as an arrow original sheet metal. The main reason that I never got rid of my GTO is that I figured some moron would treat it like the GTO in this video!

So interesting. In the 70's when I was in high school I liked working on cars, had a 71 Nova. My younger brother had a buddy who was looking for a car. He'd saved up $400 and was going to buy anything he could get for that price, didn't matter, could be a bug, could be anything. He finds this ad in the newspaper (that's how we used to sell used cars) that said 69 Pontiac $400. So he buys it. It is a 69 GTO, convertible, primered black, 400 HO engine, 4 speed tranny. They asked me to put headers on it, which I did, and discovered the Pontiac heads with the header bolts pointed downward was a PITB. Anyway, test drove it of course to check my work. Damn thing was fast! Shifted 2nd to 3rd at about 60. To that point, and until the current generation of cars, that was the fasted street car I'd ever driven. Nice car!

Hi Steve- great content as usual. I have an odd memory that I'd like to share with you, and maybe get some insight. Probably 25 years ago I was cruising a junkyard and happened on what I remember as a 2nd gen Firebird (might have been a Camaro, it was years ago). It was a console shift manual trans (4spd?) and I did what any car nut would do. I hopped in behind the wheel and got lost in fantasy for a minute. Naturally, I grabbed second gear next- and something quite odd caught my attention. As I pulled the 1-2 shift, a collar on the steering column moved. It was just like bringing the stick down on a column shift auto, but there was NO provision for a column shift! I grabbed 3rd, and the section of column rotated again. Each time I changed gears, that collar rotated. I didn't understand why. I got into a conversation with my son today and related this story to him- and while I did, a theory came to mind. Is it at all possible that the oddball no-an-automatic collar on the column, was actually a factory thing, designed to lockout the gear selection with the key out? That's the only theory that makes any sense to me. Thanks for all the great content!
@mjg263 Жыл бұрын
They had a linkage that coupled the collar to the floor shifter to assure that you left it in reverse before pulling the key out if you had a manual. If you had an automatic the same linkage to the collar assured you put it in park to start it and to remove the key plus it moved the shift indicator on the dash (same shift indicator quadrant for floor or column shift automatics). I had a ‘74 Nova with a floor shift, same deal.

That hood is sprung. The hinges don't work that well. It bent up while it was being forced down at the front. If you push down on it while pulling the latch it will prolly open.

Many guys back in the day changed to the lower model's grille or hood to fool would-be contestants in the stoplight grand prix as to who their opponent was, or who was coming up to them in their rear view mirror.
