Photo: Oh, and there was one more thing that Bill added to “The Judge’s” chambers: a second BDS blower on top of the existing one. Probably one of the few times in life when it's acceptable to notice the car first. The car was ready for the show circuit again, and it only took about five weeks to get it back into shape, and it was looking better than ever. Bill had a lot of work ahead to get the car back into the show circuit that he and his wife had been participating.Īfter all the body work was done, and the three coats of silver followed by seven coats of orange, it came time to color sand the seven coats of clear with up to 3,000 grit, and a final polishing to get the color you see in these pictures. On his way to the Ames Performance Pontiac Nationals in Ohio a trailer tire blew, flipping his trailer with the car inside. It had a 406 Pontiac with a BDS 6-71 blower, and after a couple cruises he decided to up the ante and he built a 455-based 474 cubic inch engine in 2004. When Bill bought the Goat, it had been sitting in a barn for a while. Be that as it may, as the builder of this insane GTO, Bill definitely turned even more heads than the car ever did when he launched it on the public after it’s build. We came across a 1970 Pontiac GTO that was owned by Bill Bolin from Shady Side, Md., but he says on his YouTube page that the car has changed hands numerous times and he believes it’s now in Canada. It’s a car you never get tired of, no matter how many you see, and hopefully when you see one it’s been well taken care of.
With it’s deck lid spoiler and that split front grille that is classic Pontiac it was one mean and menacing looking Pontiac.
When “The Judge” showed up at Pontiac dealers, everyone knew where the name came from, and the car was no less popular than the routine from whence it came. In that show, Sammy Davis, Jr., had a routine where he chanted, “Here come da Judge”, and that routine was very well known. In 1969, there was a new model called “The Judge” that Pontiac had based on a regular routine from the very popular comedy show “Rowan and Martin’s Laugh In”. One car that made the scene back in the mid ’60’s, turning heads everywhere, was the Pontiac GTO which was based on the Tempest.
