alsancle Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Talk about made of unobtainium. This allegedly is a VOE car. If you don't know what that is search the forum. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1970-pontiac-gto-convertible-4-speed-voe-option/ This 1970 Pontiac GTO convertible is finished in red with a matching interior and powered by a 400ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission and 3.55:1 Safe-T-Track rear axle. The car is said to be one of 21 convertible examples equipped with the Vacuum Operated Exhaust (VOE) option which consisted of vacuum-operated diaphragms controlled via a pull switch on the dashboard that enabled the mufflers to be bypassed. Features include a white power-operated soft top, an Endura front bumper, dual hood scoops, a rear spoiler, power windows, power steering, power-assisted front disc brakes, a hood-mounted tachometer, a heavy-duty frame, a Formula leather steering wheel, a Hurst shifter, and a push-button AM/FM radio with an 8-track player. The car was acquired by the selling dealer in August 2021. This GTO is offered with PHS documentation, an original build sheet, service records, and transferrable New York registration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

95Cardinal Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Wow; this thing is fantastic. I love the VOE mufflers. Currently have them on my 68 GTO. I can't imagine what this car will go for. Already bid over $60k, 2 hours into the auction. Drop the rear end about 3" (back where it belongs) and done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesR Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 I remember that commercial. I was 11 or 12, but had older brothers who were car crazy. I thought it was cool at the time, but it seems so dated today. The car, however, will be cool forever. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAKerry Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 I'll trade 2 trans ams, throw in a motorcycle or two and possibly my wife for that car! Beautiful. Agree the rear seems a tad bit high, may just not have settled into its new shoes yet. I like the cut out option but would take the originality of it with a grain of salt. Unless its on the PHS it didnt happen. I would not be surprised to see this one hit 100k, and rightfully so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect 75-100k. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it might go over $100k. Lots of strong Pontiac bids on BaT lately. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
