|

Our T37 and GT37 Tech Advisor, Clyde Rowley, has sent some more information on these models to share. Clyde has done a great deal of documenting of these cars, and we have articles in our On-Line Magazine by him with even more information.
The numbers of the T37 and GT37 built has always been sort of illusive, however, he has some more information to share. Read on...
I was doing research on a 1971 GT37 for sale and purchased the documentation from PHS for the car. I received a Pontiac Production listing for 68-71 (see below) that identifies the number of T-37 2-door coupes (2Cp) and 2-door hard tops (2H) produced in 1970 and 1971.
In 1971 the Tempest model was dropped, but the T-37 line was kept, normally referred to as the LeMans T-37. This is how it is also listed on the dealer shipping documents (Lemans T37).
The Pontiac Production listing indicates that 11,977 2-door coupes (2Cp) and 20,883 2-door hardtops (2H) were produced in 1970. Both 2Cp and 2H could have the GT-37 option added in 1970. Other research has shown that 1419 of the 32,860 T37s produced in 1970 received the GT37 option, or 4.3%.
In 1971 only 2-door hardtops (2H) received the GT37 option. Of the 29,466 2-door hardtops produced, 5802 received the GT37 option or, approx 19.7%.
In past articles and documentations it stated that all GT-37s where built in Pontiac, MI; however, the PHS documentation I received on the 1971 car with the GT37 option that I was researching was built in Fremont, CA and there is another 1970 GT37 listed in the Goat Alley web site that was built in Oshawa, Ontario Canada." _________________ PontiacRegistry.com... building the single largest source of Pontiac information, services, and entertainment in the world! |
