This is a original Fremont car,delivered new to Montana.It's also a original 2 tone code 55-50 bench seat GTO.It was ordered with a 3.08 open and a M20 muncie,power disc brakes and manual steering.I had an aluminum block RA V engine sitting around and found this car on ebay.It was in the Palm Springs area.I drove down to see it and was high bidder and bought the car.After getting the car I put the V motor in it,added power steering and put in a 3.55 posi.The car is VERY close to the Royal Bobcat color combo so I had the deck lid,stinger and the rest of the paint trim done on it along with the Royal Bobcat emblems.

The RA V tunnel port engine is made up of the aluminum RA V block,Ross custom dished pistons for 9.5 CR.The rods are Carillo and the crank is a Joe Reath welded stroker,made from a forged 61 pontiac SD crank with center counter weights and a stroke of 4.125 and a 4,20 bore.The cam is a Comp Cam roller 245-252@50 with a 400 lobe lift ground on a 112.H&S full roller rockers.The heads are stock unported with 2.19 intake and 1.73 exhaust.The carb is a 4545 RA V Holley restored by Jet Performance distributor and balancer are stock RA V pontiac items.

This engine is one of 2 aluminum RA V engines running in cars.One of a few blocks that got out of the factory.The other block is one I also owned at one time.


The car has Hurst wheels repopped by the Parts Place and stock Firestone redlines.I also added the upper and lower Ram Air pans from the Parts Place.The headers are custom ones done by Dean Lepole before his passing.The rest of the car is very much tha same as when I bought it.
