Triple black: It's the color combination for a muscle car. Exotic colors are nice, but ask a car guy what turns him on and that's his reply, every time. Formal, cool and mean all the same time black/black/black cars are a breed of their own. Add in the very rare 455 cubic inch engine and ALL of the right visual options and you've got one of the best GTO's of all time.
Here’s how the PHS-sourced window sticker lays out the car:
24267 Pontiac GTO convertible
344 455 4bbl HO engine
351 Turbo Hydra-matic (TH400) automatic transmission
361 Safe-T-Track rear differential
402 AM/FM radio
422 Vinyl side stripes
464 Formula steering wheel
474 Rally II wheels
501 Power steering
502 power brakes
504 Tilt steering wheel
561 Power seat, full bench
582 Air conditioning
621 Ride and handling package
A2 Starlight Black paint w/black convertible top
62 Black bench seat interior
Look over the deep black exterior. The body is in excellent shape, free of dings, dents or ripples. The paint is smooth and flat. Rally II wheels with correct Firestone Wide Ovals are at each corner. The Endura front bumper, so frequently cracked and warped, is nearly perfect here. Stainless trim pieces are in great shape. The black convertible top is brand new and operates exactly as it should. The grilles are close to perfect and chrome parts from the door handles to the rear bumper sparkle.
Pop the hood and take in the sights. Front and center is a warranty replacement, properly dated and coded YA 455 engine, resplendently detailed from top to bottom. Only 241 455/auto GTO convertibles were built in '70 out of nearly 3,800 total...do the math! The block is the proper 9799140 piece, with #64 heads and a date coded manifold and carb. You can tell the car's only gone a couple miles since new by the lack of discoloration on the cylinder heads by the exhaust risers: I drove it far enough to sort it out and no more. The inner fenderwells, core support, firewall and other satin black parts are perfect. The A/C system is new or remanufactured throughout, including all new hoses, a new accumulator, the compressor, all seals and more. I charged it up with R134a and it blows cold. A new power brake booster and master cylinder stop the car as new. There’s a new wiring harness in place, a reproduction cap on the new radiator and new hoses with tower hose clamps. New belts, date coded wires, fresh plugs, new filters and more mean the maintenance items have been replaced, and replaced properly.
There are rebuilt seats with new covers, new carpeting, a new dash pad, a clean center console and mint door panels. The one change, from a power bench seat to buckets with a power driver's side, should offend no one but the top 1% of purists. They look better, are sportier and allow for more interior adjustment. The dash panels, both chrome and woodgrain, are brand new. All of the interior chrome is new. Clean gauges work as they should. Again, everything is fresh and everything works as it should.
Underneath the key word is “spotless.” From the floorpans to the exhaust to the steering and suspension this chassis is well sorted, tidy and new. Steering and brake components are new and adjusted precisely. The automatic transmission is in excellent shape after its fresh rebuild, as is the 3.55-geared rear with new axles, bearings, seals and a brand new Eaton Posi. In keeping with its cruiser attitude the exhaust rumbles as new with its reproduction mufflers. The trunk is in the same condition: A new trunk mat, spare cover, the correct jack and spare make their homes inside while leaving plenty of room for car show supplies!
Please send any questions you have before you hit the buy it now and I'll try to get back with you quickly. I don't want to hear any excuses after (I leave negative on you if so). If you hit buy it now I'll be out of town till the July 26th so if you buy it before you will have to wait till Aug 5th to pick it up.

There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.

We like cars, and we like art. Naturally, Chris Labrooy's Auto Aerobics series - computer-generated images of some seriously contorted 1968 Pontiac Bonnevilles floating in mid-air - instantly clicked with us. If the Pontiacs weren't floating or hollow, we could be fooled into believing the image is real. But where's the fun in that?
Check out the gallery we included of Labrooy's Bonneville art, and feel free too head over to his website for some Formula One humor.

NASCAR driver Tony Stewart is making good use of his nickname Smoke in new videos inspired by the 1970s classic Smokey and the Bandit. The original is one of the quintessential automotive movies of its era with a fantastic combination of slapstick comedy and great car stunts in a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. If you've never seen it, check it out immediately.
In the new six-part Smoke IS the Bandit web series, Stewart takes on the role of Burt Reynolds' famous character complete with huge mustache. But instead of trying to smuggle cases of Coors beer it's Mobil 1 oil. The series promises to recreate many of the famous scenes from the movie and includes cameos from other NASCAR drivers.
To complete the look, future videos just need a quality replacement for a young Sally Field to ride shotgun. It would also be really cool if Reynolds could make a brief appearance at some point. Scroll down to check out the trailer and the first episode in the series.
