Vintage photo of Jon Burdett's first car, a Gold 1970 GTO hardtop, that he purchased in 1981. Jon tells us more, "The license plate
read, "7T GOAT." It was fully loaded: 400cid, th350 automatic transmission, sport wood wheel, air conditioning, power windows, power brakes, power radio attenna, rear window defogger, remote trunk release, and those were the original Goodyear Polyglass G70-14's. I absolutely loved this car, and wish I still had it. I sold the car in 1988 with 179k on odometer and for $1000 more than I paid. I also have the 1969 Matador Red Judge on this site. I still have that one!" You can see pictures of his Judge with the Advanced Picture Searcher loaded with year=1969, model=Judge, and owner=burdett.CLICK-> 
Cardinal Red 1970 Judge hardtop owned by Rick from Allentown, Pennsylvania. Rick tells us, "I finally realized my dream of owning a 70 GTO! Finding a Judge only made it better! It's all original & matching, except for Hedman Hedders and fresh paint. The engine was recently rebuilt, balanced, and blueprinted."CLICK-> 
Rick continues, "Automatic transmission is the only downside for me, but as you as you can tell from the pictures, the ladies love'em no matter how you shift'em"CLICK->

This is the BEFORE picture of Lance Armstrong's 1970 GTO convertible. It's before TLC's "Overhaulin" redid it. The "Overhaulin'" show first aired the night of 11/30/04. It was originally owned by Jerry Stillman (pictured) who sold it to Sheryl Crow. She gave it to Lance Armstrong. The Stillman family is friends with the Crow family. Sheryl rode in the car many times when she was younger. We've got a whole set of pictures of this GTO being overhauled. Click on the Parked in the 1970 Lot link under the image to see them.CLICK-> 
Here's Lance Armstrong's 1970 GTO sitting in the Overhaulin garage were it will be re-created in only 7 days. During the Overhaulin show "the owner gets tricked and the car gets tricked out". They usually trick the owner (mostly regular non-celeberty people) into believing that their car was stolen with the help of a family member or friend. The car gets restyled and updated by the large Overhaulin team.CLICK-> 
The BEFORE interior in Lance Armstrong's 1970 GTO. The Overhaulin show is a chance for aftermarket automotive suppliers to showcase some of their latest products as well as demonstrate some of the latest trends in modified car restorations.CLICK->

They found lots of rust and bondo under the paint of Lance Armstrong's 1970 GTO. They do a frame-off on it. Lincoln Electric supplied the welding equipment used to fabricate parts for Lance Armstrong's GTO at the Colvin Automotive shop in Austin, Texas. They used Lincoln's Precision TIG™ 185 welding machine, Pro Cut® 25 plasma cutter, and SP-135 compact GMAW machine.CLICK-> 
Lance Armstrong's 1970 GTO convertible is all done. The color is "Oil Slick" black. Instead of the "GTO" emblem in the grille, they put on a "Sprint 6" emblem. Why? Because to date he has won the big Tour De France bike race 6 times.PICTURE SET CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE ... |
