Absolutely stunning!Nancy and Bob Dunbar with their #original owner 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge in their Beachfield neighborhood. When Pontiac brought out its first GTO in 1964, it was a special edition of the Tempest, and the initials stood for Grand Tempest Option. Project Manager John DeLorean - of DeLorean auto fame - dictated that the Judge would always be this color orange, which was first patented by #Chevrolet and called #PontiacGTOJudge #CarouselRed #HuggerOrange #BobDunbar #GrandTempestOption #GeneralMotors

Not sure why I've seen red, white and blue Judges if this story is true though. In the early '90s, I had a '66 GTO frankenstein LeMans creation with a 400 Chevy engine in it. Closest I ever got...

Bill says: at The girl if she could like an 80 year old man. Don’t know what I would I would do with her but it should would be fun finding out.Have to go with the 'Stang. They're still producing hot girls.
Bummer
What’s worse is the shop just down from ours they are stripping down an all original 59 or 60 and turning it into a race car
This is like a gun. Always have it when you need it!!!!
I have carried at least one since 1975 , Kidde 10 abc .
$ 20 peace of mind .
Me 2 at least one in every vehicle of mine.
I would suggest a “clean agent extinguisher” over an ABC dry chem. ABC dry chem is highly corrosive and can do more damage than the fire. Clean agents such as FE36, Halon, or halotron evaporates without any residue and does not conduct electricity.
Hang on.I thought this only happened to Mustangs.
Sad
The downside of a fiberglass body .
Oh man
sad day for somebody
Oh, so sad
Lucky it’s just another Chevy Corvette…. millions of them out there
O no
That’s Sad
Just another piece of crap that someone won’t have to waste money on to keep it running anymore
Hey now…. THATS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A VETTE MESSES WITH A HELL CAT….!!!
Ain’t it a shame, to be shot down in flames?
YIKES! Sorry for your loss!
FIRE EXTINGUISHER …. QUICK DISCONNECT ON BATTERY TERMINALS ! This doesn’t guarantee anything , but it sure as hell increases your odds of NOT having your car burn to the ground .
Oh no :-(
Nobody thought about a Fire Extinguisher in the car.
Damn shame
Hottest vette you’ll ever see
Not the first Vette I’ve seen burn. Sad day for the owner.
Obviously a fuel pump issue. With these older cars, the mechanical fuel pump having been installed on the engine was a serious safety problem. When the pull pump fails, the car catches on fire. Had this happen on a 1974 Mercury Capri, it wasn’t a pretty site. Now you know why they put the fuel pump in the tank on today’s cars. That’s also why you see commercial semi’s on fire on the side of the freeway. Since diesel motors still have mechanical fuel pumps, it poses a serious modern day hazard. When the pump goes out the one major part that regulates the fuel pressure is gone, and there’s not much to hold the pressure back, sooo. They simply go up in flames.
