The Judge package was introduced in 1969 and carried on in 1970 and again for a short period in 1971. Pontiac gave the GTO a redesign in 1970, removing the hide-away headlights from the ’69 model year. The ’70 GTO has been featured in several feature films including Two Lane Blacktop and Dazed and Confused.
