Northampton, Massachusetts, United States

For sale is a professionally restored 1967 GTO. I have owned this car since 1986 and am the second owner. The car has been adult owned and maintained since bought new. I have not driven the car in the last 10 years other than to get it inspected. The car was never driven in the winter since I have owned it, and only occasionally driven in the rain. I am thinning the heard, too busy with work and other responsibilities, and decided the car belongs in the hands of someone who will appreciate it as much as I do, but also enjoy driving it.

 This car is a January 1976 GTO:

 General Motors Corporation

          09C                                       E

STS   67-24217  FRA  248    BODY

TR    223-B                   N-H     PAINT 

          W  2LGR 

          5Y

            BODY BY FISHER

The car has OEM 5 spoke mag steel wheels with stainless steel trim rings, Hurst 4 speed Muncie A22 “rock crusher” transmission,  326CI engine, and Carter 4 barrel (quadrajet) carburetor.

The emblems note 400CI engine (which this car should have). I questioned the original owner when I bought the car asking when the engine was replaced. He claimed he never replaced the motor and that the 326CI engine was the engine in the car when he bought it new.

I had the motor rebuilt when I bought the car in 1986 at Warren’s Automotive, in Palmer, Massachusetts. This included rebuilt heads, new piston and rings, cam chain, main and rod bearings. The rebuilt motor has approximately 40,000 miles on it. The radiator was replaced with a 4-core radiator. I also have an aftermarket (Bob’s Pontiac) fan shroud that goes with the car, but I never installed. The rubber boot for the shift is also torn, and I have a new (Bob's Pontiac) rubber replacement boot that goes with the car, but also never installed.

I had the car painted in 1986 by Ricks Auto body in Springfield, MA. The entire car was stripped to bare metal, windshield and rear window removed, interior removed, front fenders grill etc., removed to eliminate masking errors and provide OEM paint finish quality. Car was checked/measured on their frame machine to confirm no prior accidents.

While at Ricks Auto body, the rear window pan was replaced and the passenger side front windshield post was repaired where the post and firewall connect. All bodywork was professionally done by Ricks Auto Body, Springfield MA.

The interior is original, black and in good to very good condition. There is a small hole in the headliner over the rear right back seat from a mouse. This spring while washing the interior, the passenger bucket seat button to relaase the seat back to let the passenger in the back got stuck. Probably will need some penetrating oil to loosen it up.

The instrument cluster has the stock tachometer and gauges. The original owner disconnected the gauges and installed an under dash SUN water, oil pressure, amp cluster. The original owner also installed a manual choke lever under the dash near the ashtray. The car is missing the windshield washer fluid reservoir. It did not have one when I purchased the car, and I never put one in, as I truly only drove it on nice days.

The overall body and paint are in very good to excellent condition. There are a few minor road rock nicks in the paint, and a few small scrapes on the right front (headlight) quarter panel and the left rear quarter panel from parking lot bozos who had to park near me…no matter how far away I parked from people.

 In 1990 I had all new Moog springs and suspension components installed. 

 In 2000 I replaced the starter

In 2012 I had a new stainless steel exhaust system custom bent and installed, replaced the rear brake lines (Teflon brake lines), rebuilt the Carb with a Carter OEM rebuild kit.

In 2013 I replaced the power steering pump, and also replaced the alternator and power steering belts.

Not looking for tire kickers. You know that the car is worth. Serious only who appreciate a true American muscle car and will enjoy driving her for years to come.

General Lee takes on Bandit T/A in classic Hollywood car showdown [w/poll]

Fri, 26 Aug 2011

You don't have to be born in the 1960s or 1970s to be able to recognize the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard and the Pontiac Trans Am from Smokey and the Bandit. These old school four-wheeled stars seem to transcend demographics thanks to the miles of film that show the orange 1969 Dodge Charger and the jet-black 1977 Pontiac Trans Am performing seemingly impossible stunts.
The folks at Hot Rod magazine are obviously hip to this fact, and they put together a fun video in tribute of the instantly recognizable duo. Hit the jump to watch on as Sam Young and James Smith replace Bo Duke and The Bandit for a bit of dirt-road shenanigans in a pair of otherwise well cared for classics. We're not so sure we'd call it the best chase scene ever, but it sure looks like a lot of fun.
More importantly, which of these two cars would you rather own? Have your say in our poll below.

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.

Sci-fi movie Jinn features car designer, Firebird-bodied Camaro

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

If you're an automotive engineer being tormented by an immortal being made of fire, then wouldn't you think it best to have a custom coupe called the FireBreather for your getaway car? That's the FireBreather in the image above, adorned by the red wings that once fronted the Pontiac Firebird, running away from a black cloud of evil in a trailer for the movie Jinn.
The Jinn is eternal evil, always waiting for the chance to make things float across rooms before going on homicidal urban rampages. The FireBreather is a Gen-V Chevrolet Camaro - from the V6 to the ZL1 - that's been through Classic Design Concepts' extensive list of exterior and interior modifications, including entirely new front and rear fascias and side skirts, sway bars and springs, Pirelli P Zeroes and an available Edelbrock supercharger.
The movie - FireBreathing chase scenes and all - was shot in Monroe, Michigan. You can watch the trailer below, but since the FireBreather only get a couple of seconds on screen, you can find out more about it on Street Legal TV and its official site.
