Up for sale is a 1977 Pontiac Grand Prix LJ that I purchased from the original owner. The car came from Missouri with a body that is straight and clean with some minor wear typical for a car of this age. The underside is very clean and showing no rust. The interior has some damage from being in the sun. Please examine the photos. You can hop in the car start it up and listen to that Pontiac 400 V-8 "growl". There is a console equipped automatic which adds to the driving joy. There is a small crack on the bottom corner of the windshield that may need repair.

The original owner loved his car so much that he had a garage built for it when he could no longer drive. The car was stored in this garage for the past 18 years. There were only 57,800 on the GP when it was taken from the garage and to a dealer to be made "road ready" so the original owner could see it run once more. The list of items repaired in with the car photos.

This car is PHS documented. The car comes with a copy of the original window sticker. The car has 27 factory options and sold for $8,023.65 in 1977. Also included with the car are the 1977 Sales Literature, Paint Chips, Shop and Body Manuals on CD Disc, Bound copy of the shop manual (came from a library)and a Fischer Body Manual.

The car is appraised at $15,000 and is being offered at a spring sale buy it now price of $9,950. This is a sharp GP that you can get in and drive, restore later, or keep it as a survivor.

Please look over the photos and contact me with any questions. The car may be inspected any time prior to the end of the auction.

Settlement terms are a $1,000.00 non-refundable deposit via PayPal within two days of the auction close with the remainder due within five days via a wire transfer.

You may send me questions via the listing or by contacting Dave at (608) 575-2492 8:00am to 8:pm (WI)

Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way

Tue, 21 Feb 2012

There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.

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.

Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
