Default Motor Trend '69 GP

This is the Motor Trend GP test car. Pictured here in the 1969 performance brochure and also used for the Wide Track Tigers poster set that you could purchase from Pontiac. This car is 1 of the 22 close ratio 4-speed cars equipped with the 428HO and a 3.90 rear. Expresso Brown, Dark Fawn vinyl top and Gold leather guts. I sure hope this car has survived, but I've never seen or heard of it.

----I can say that this 4-speed GP is almost an identical car to my 69. The only difference is a big one,,, no 4-speed. Colors and options are identical otherwise. Its my go to car when I don't want to listen to side pipes,,,,LOL!....Bill S
