FOR YOU PONTIAC DUDES, 70 GTO RAM AIR 4 PICS

[MultiMopars]

I remember that the stripes were like two different colors of yellow/gold and blue if I remember correctly. Do you guys know what I am talking about? Was that a 70 or 71 thing

[flyingn]

like I said. Ill bet you had a 70 not a 71..

That could be as it was over 30 years ago and I did not have the car that long.

But it still doesn't answer my question about the multi colored stripe?

As Steve stated, The Judge accent stripes were the same for both '70 and '71.

Info below is from Eric White's excellent, GTO/GT-37 Illustrated Identification Guide (book).
Depending on body color they were:

Blue-Orange-Pink
Yellow-Blue-Red
Yellow-Black-Red
Green-Yellow-White

Additionally, the optional D98 Rally Stripes (N/A on Judge) were:

1970, White-Red-Black
1971, White/Red or Black/Red

HTH...

My car was DEFINATELY a Judge and had the multi colored stripes that surrounded the tops of the front fenders and rear quarters.

I could be wrong about the year but I have had it on my written list of "memorable cars owned" so It is not like I am drawing on my recent memory of something from 30 years ago. I truely think it was a 1971. I remember many years ago when I first heard the 1 of 17 number I thought (gulp) I used to owned one of those.

[al8apex]

the front ends (and hoods) of the 70 & the 71 are WAY different, hard to confuse the two

70 (had the 68-69 style hood):



71 (new front "snout" and hood):

Maybe it was a '71 455HO GTO with the wing and stripes added to the car, they only made 21 4sp's and 27 auto cars.

Just a thought...

[MultiMopars]

No, it was a Judge.

[flyingn]

please don't take this wrong. But HOW do you know it was a Judge? The engine could be a 455 ram air and the stripes/spoiler could have been added. Did it have the telltale 'judge' emblem on the glovebox cover? As you seen with my link there were NO dark blue 71 Judge conv's made..
