Up for auction is a 1964 Pontiac Lemans Convetible, this is a project car pulled out of a barn after about 23 years. The car is originally white with saddle interior. It has a 326 v8 ( not believed to be original motor, original motor pulled out in early 70s) and automatic transmission. Again this is complete project, I did have it running last summer, actually ran pretty good did not smoke and ran pretty smooth I am sure with a battery and a little gas in carb it would probably start up again. Needs the following as far as body, lower fenders( I have a spare drivers side fender that is in much better shape than the one on the car now). The lower doors skins ( also have extra passenger side door that is in much better shape as well as door hinge in excellent condition.) Lower quarters, inner and outer wheel housings. The floor is pretty solid, the area where the firewall meets the floor needs to be patched, also there is about a dime size hole elsewhere. The trunk definetly need to be patched around the drivers side wheel well rest of trunk could probably use a patch job/ replacement as well. It needs new top, frame is present and seems to be in good shape, top does not work, I have not fooled with it so I dont know what it needs, prob motor. I tore out the brake line running from front to back, I have a brand new replacement other than that brakes have not been touched, the line running from the master cylinder to the dist. block was removed. I do not know the condition of the transmission I have never had it on road I am sure it needs going through. I believe all of lenses/glass is intact and in good shape. Interior needs complete restoration. T here is surface rust on hood/trunk but no rust through. At some point hood pins were installed on the car. Frame appears to be in good shape with usual surface rust. Overall good restoration candidate in my opinion. Can't think of anything else right now, feel free to ask questions, will answer them if I can. Clear title. I reserve right to end auction early>

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile
Sun, 29 Apr 2012Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
General Lee takes on Bandit T/A in classic Hollywood car showdown [w/poll]
Fri, 26 Aug 2011You 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.
NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys
Mon, 10 Jun 2013According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.
