Stripped down, painted Wimbledon White and stuffed with 427 cubic inches of Galaxie V-8, the cars were dubbed “Thunderbolts”, and they struck drag racing like lightning. The 1964 Thunderbolt offered here is finished in factory correct Wimbledon White and displays the Thunderbolt’s trademark reverse teardrop hood scoop, Ram Air headlight openings and Spartan Beige interior.

      Ford built a strictly limited number of 25 Galaxie 500 Lightweight 4-speed factory drag cars in 1964, all equipped with the competition-tuned dual-4-barrel 427/425 HP “High Riser” engine and 4-speed gearbox. Delivered in Wimbledon White with Red interiors, they flat out dominated Stock and Super Stock and remain rare and valuable to this day.

      The Galaxie Lightweight offered here is an excellent example presented in completely stock factory trim, with fiberglass doors, fenders, trunk lid and hood, the latter also featuring the iconic reverse teardrop hood bubble that characterized that generation of Ford factory drag cars. The minimalist Red interior reflects the car’s intended mission: lightweight Bostrum bucket seats replace the heavy stock units over thin rubber floor mats and the heater, radio and clock are deleted.

      Royal Pontiac is widely accepted as the most significant Pontiac high performance dealer, and as the Pontiac equivalent of other "American Supercar" builders such as Nickey, Yenko, and Baldwin-Motion for Chevrolet and Grand Spaulding Dodge for Mopars. No "Supercar" collection is complete without a Royal Bobcat Pontiac, and the rarity and significance of this 1968 Royal Bobcat GTO make it truly unique.

      Original owner Mike Rutherford had planned to buy the car and have his good friend Arnie Beswick replace the stock Ram Air 400 engine with a 428/425 HP unit. Because of his busy racing schedule, Beswick advised Rutherford to order his new GTO from Ace Wilson’s Royal Pontiac, whose elite crew would handle the transformation. As Arnie tells it, he had to make appeals on Rutherford’s behalf to GTO Godfather Jim Wangers and “a few people at Royal”, before consummating the deal. Word of the project apparently spread, because the car’s arrival at Royal “coincided” with a visit from Popular Hot Rodding magazine photographer Lee Kelley, who took the now-famous cover shot of Royal’s Milt Schornack and Dave Warren hoisting the 428 into the car’s engine bay.

      This extensively documented 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge enjoys a high profile in the Pontiac community as one of the finest in the country. Purchased from the original owners with just 38,000 miles on the odometer, this Palladium Silver Judge received a full frame-off restoration by Best of Show in Chicago, IL, while Westech in Silver Lake, WI. handled the job of rebuilding the car’s original Ram Air III engine and Muncie M20 4-speed transmission both of which retain all the major original components. A new carpet was installed in the otherwise original Blue interior, which features bucket seats, console, Rallye gauges and tachometer. Two documented “Day Two” items kept during the restoration were the dealer-installed hood locks and yellow Zeibart caps covering the rustproofing application access openings.
