1966 Pontiac GTO
4 Speed Carburetor 4 speed Muncie transmission with Hurst shifter PHS Historic Services has proven that the VIN is in fact a true GTO and I have the paperwork to prove it. The Good - Starts right up and sounds amazing. Engine runs great. Interior is clean with minor issues. Body is straight. Was told from previous owner that the engine was "bored and stroked" and thus this car is very strong. It can "peel out" when shifting from neutral but driven gently it will not. New chrome bumpers New Retro 5 Spoke Wheels New Cooper Trend Setter Tires - Mounted and Balanced New fan put in New headlight bezels Updated larger exhaust - The car sounds strong. New battery Updated radiator Rebuilt and updated steering column New steering wheel - Wood New shifter knob Wires cleaned up in the engine bay Fluids topped off New floor chrome step plates when entering from door New hood scoop Newish / Updated Interior black headliner and seats Newer / Updated Fuel tank Newer / Updated 3" Exhaust New parts in the trunk (Not installed but purchased) - Interior door and window handles / cranks Essex Carpet Sound deadener Arm rests Interior door panels Performance Dual radiator fans - used for a little bit but we put on a new original piece. Choice is up to you. *I may return those parts not installed for money if the new owner doesn't plan on using them - As I need the money.* Work needed - Body is straight but has one dent in the back left corner the size of a golf ball Sanding and a nice paint job needed - it is primer black now. Was red before it was black. Light rust in a couple spots that need sanding and a couple spots of bubbles on the roof that need sanding Could use new brakes but we do drive it every now and then just fine (the car is heavy and fast) The color of the car is black primer with two white racing stripes - looks mean and good to me but whoever buys will probably want it painted. Needs gauge work done. Currently using aftermarket gauges and theirs no working speedometer. Mileage reads as 14,9xx. I got two quotes for a full body and paint job - One was $8,000 and the other was $9,000 (In the CA market, not sure if it's higher here) - If that gives you any idea of the shape of the car (I don't have the money to do it). I also included more pictures of the wheel wells and trunk. Two of the wheel wells have a little bit of rust and a lot of dirt caked on. The front two wheel wells are really clean, zero rust. The trunk shows the red the car used to be which is also starting to show through on the roof of the car. The pictures and video will show the car's shape and that it fires right up. In the video I step on the gas for a brief second before exiting. The quality of the sound on my phone video does no justice to the car. Here is the video of me starting the car, revving the engine once and a close up of the engine:
I will be listing the car locally as well and reserve the right to take down the listing at any moment if I am offered a decent amount from someone local. Have to sell due to the loss of a job. Would have loved to see it get finished but that's life. Hope it goes to someone who will love it. |

1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction
Mon, 01 Aug 2011For 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.
Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes
Mon, 31 Mar 2014When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:
