We once owned a 69 and a 70...thinking the 69 was a 455ci..4 speed car..real beast too.  Id love to build replicas of them someday and others we once owned.

Only 2 engine options on the '69 GP.

Either the 428 in the Model SJ, or the 400 in the Model J.

Steve buddy...thanks for the information...it was a SJ model must have been the 428ci one then.  It ran so hard it was unbelievable...loved that thing.  I have a 69 and a 70 model but they both need a lot of parts yet before i can do anything with them.

Great restoration!are the wheels factory?,i've never seen them before?.

Those are 65-68 Pontiac Rally I wheels. The 69 GP did not have that wheel as a Factory option. The original MPC  kit had the deep dish wheel cover as the stock version wheel, and the Rally I wheel for the custom version. I have my original 69 to restore, and I am going to use a set of Rally II wheels on mine.

Those wheels look great on that build.
