On July 22, 1967 Jimmy Perkins, a US Army Sgt. from Fromberg, Montana took delivery of a Gulf Turquoise 1967 GTO HO Convertible from Mac Intyre Pontiac, in Billings Montana while he was on leave from the Vietnam Conflict .This car was Jimmys' dream car. He babied it and stored it under a cover while he was on deployement only putting a few thousand miles on it. In the summer of 1970, Jimmy Perkins was killed in combat by enemy fire earning himself a bronze star, posthumously. This car was parked front and center at Jimmys' funeral, the cabin being filled with flowers from a town that lost one of it's favorite sons.
The car then sat for another year and was traded in by Jimmys' mother on a 1972 Pontiac Station Wagon.
The car sat in the showroom of the Pontiac dealer for years, but the story of the town behind the car would not allow the owner to sell the car. In lieu of that, he kept the car. Driving it sparingly and keeping it in top shape. Unfortunately due to declining health and business, the Pontiac dealer closed about 7 or 8 years ago. The car still has the sign from the Pontiac dealership where it was stored for decades, in a climate controlled environment...in the trunk.
The car is now being offered for the first time to the public.
The car is as original as it can possibly be. All original inspection markings and stampings are all pretty much still there. The rear springs and shocks were replaced, belts, hoses, battery, brake parts, exhaust, tires and due to the car being stored in a showroom with the top down for decades, the convertible top was also replaced. The car has not a ding nor a dent, has to my knowledge never had any paint work and is absolutely perfectly rust free and dry. There is one tiny chip in the paint at the edge of the drivers side door. Every single accessory and light and gauge works as it should. The chrome and brightwork as as nice as NOS.
The interior looks like it was never used! The only defect I could ascertain is one crack in the rim of the steering wheel.
This car looks like it is brand new. The transmission was out once to verify the #'s on top of the trans and to replace the rear main seal and replace the clutch for good measure.
This car is not going to sell cheap. I refuse to give this car away. This car is the cream of the crop in unrestored, unmolested, shape.
Call me on my cell at 312 622 7533 as this car is for sale locally and auction can and will be ended at any time in the event of a local sale.
Clean and clear title in hand.
Car includes every bit of documentation you can imagine. Protecto Plate, old registrations, ect.

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative
Tue, 29 Oct 2013How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?
Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally
Fri, 13 Jun 2014The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.
Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
