1969 Gto Convertible on 2040-cars

1969 GTO Convertible

  Has 400.c.i. engine and 4-speed transmission. Good rubber front bumper (enduro bumper) and fold-away headlights. Carburetor and rear bumper were lost in a garage fire.

  Body is pretty rough. Over time, and through various owners, some restoration work has been started, but the body is rusty and has the typical rust holes growing in the floor and quarter-panels, and trunk.   Also, a tractor backed into the passenger door and left a dent.

  Interior has been partially disassembled, but I believe all the pieces are there. Convertible roof is actually pretty good, but there are a couple cuts and no rear window. Has a wing for the trunk lid, but is not a "Judge". Has the original GTO title.  Do not have the original Pontiac rims.

I have listed this as local pick up-only because I have no idea how one ships a project car like this. But, I will try it if the buyer can help arrange it. I will imagine, though, that anyone buying a car like this will want to see it personally anyhow.

   When I bought the car, I was told it had the original engine and tranny in it, and the tail lights, front headlight covers, front grill and interior pieces were all inside the car.  This appears to be true, but I don't know how to check the numbers on the drivetrain, and haven't pulled all the pieces out of the car to see what might be missing.  I am selling it just the way I bought it and cannot provide much more information than I already have.  I would suggest anyone not just window shopping come look at the car yourself. You might be pleasantly surprised.

1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction

Mon, 01 Aug 2011

For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.

2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern

Mon, 07 Nov 2011

General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.

Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.
