Default Re: Pontiac's SD 455

I tell 'ya the car that SHOULD have been built........the 1974 GTO SD-455. Now that would have been one heck of a car! I've always had a soft spot for those much-ignored Nova-based '74 GTO's. My father actually purchased a very nice '74 GTO with it's standard 350/Auto drivetrain and Shaker hood that was to be my first car for me when I was 16 years old. It was actually much too nice of a car to be handed over to an in-mature driver such as myself as I was wanting something faster and not quite as nice. Anway, it would have been neat for the last year of the GTO to possibly have been the fastest factory one ever built! The '74 GTO DESERVED that SD-455 and it should have happened!

Right on Mark!.
I always wanted to build a '74 Olds Omega w/ a 455 Oldsie and/or a '74 Buick Apollo w/ a 455 Buick lump too...both stick cars of course!.
