Pontiac IL is a small close knit community, and I believe they have a fairly active car club there. Might try contacting City Hall to see if you can get contact info for someone in the Car Club. Good luck

If it's the bronze post car with the white painted top, it is a T-37 and not a GT-37. It's owned by Dan Jensen of MI. I believe they made 11 of 'em. The same engine in the GT-37 is 54 made, which is the most HOs they made in the A-body next to the GTO (about 700 or so)
The '70.5 GT-37 is quite enigmatic next to the '71s and are a rare breed. |

We have a slightly warmed over 1970 455 in our '72 Lemans Sport. It's rated at 360 hp and 500 ft/lb of torque. It feels much like our old L72 Chevelle motor in the low and mid range. I can only imagine the same car with a 455 HO. The Pontiacs are much overlooked but can make quite a decent performer on the street.
