This auction is for a 1959 Pontiac Bonneville Coupe out of Florida. Same owner since 1977. It was his pride and joy. The prior owner has serious health issues now so the family has decided to sell off some of his estate. We were fortunate enough to get this car. The car only has 59,925 actual miles. It has the original 389 V-8 4 BBL, Dual Exhaust, Automatic Transmission, Power Steering, Power Brakes, Padded Dash, Tinted Glass and 2 Tone Paint. The color is called Sunset Mist. It is the original paint with the exception of a few lower areas on both sides of the car that have been touched up with a different shade of paint. Also the roof has been re-painted. I couldnt see that it has any major body work done in those areas so I dont know the reasons for the touch up. This was done many years ago. I did notice the drivers side front floor pan has rust the size of a baseball covered with a piece of tin on the top side. Also both rear body mounts have rust through. A correct patch panel for each area would take care of the problem. The rest of the underside is very nice. Frame is perfect. All inner and outer rockers, braces, pans etc are very nice. The car is super straight down both sides. Doors open and close with ease. All glass is in nice shape. Windows roll up and down nicely. All the stainless and chrome is in very nice condition. There is one tiny ding on the trunk molding and one on the passenger side fender eye brow. Also that headlamp bezel on passenger side has a mark. These look like they can be easily be taken out and buffed back to new. Bumpers are perfect. Grilles are perfect. The trunk has a light that is removable if you are working around the car. The interior of the car is very nice, all original except for replacement carpets. The original carpet had silver threads going through it where this one doesnt but I understand that you can order the correct type. The headliner is perfect. The dash pad isnt cracked but is lifting on left and right sides. With a real good detailing the interior will come out quite nicely. The car is missing the passenger side mirror, the little piece of stainless below the vent window and the correct hubcaps. Brakes have recently been done. Car runs and drives very well. A set of skirts, wide whites, spinner hub caps and a crisp clean paint job would bring the car back to life. Drive and enjoy it the way it is and make it nicer later. These cars are a blue chip investment and are only going up in value. There are not many of these left. We have a clear Florida title and proper dealer paper work for a smooth transaction. We require a $500 non refundable deposit within 24 hours of auctions end and the balance due 3 days from auctions end. If you have under 20 feed back please contact us prior to bidding. We just want to make sure everyone is on the same page and intends on following thru with the sale.

Detroit City Council vetoes Autorama stunt, objects to Confederate flag

Wed, Feb 20 2019

Detroit's Autorama hot rod show will stage its 67th annual event next month, and wants to kick off with Burt Reynolds tribute. The plan is to re-create the Mulberry Bridge jump from " Smokey and the Bandit" using a movie-correct 1977 Pontiac Trans Am. But the Detroit City Council voted 7-1 to prohibit the jump. Why? Because the Trans Am's front license plate holder displays the former Georgia state flag, a portion of which is the Confederate national flag, and the city council doesn't like that. In the movie, Bo "Bandit" Darville was a Georgia driving legend, and the flag on the car was Georgia's flag at the time. Councilman Scott Benson laid out the council's position when he said that the car "still proudly flies a Confederate flag, which is a symbol of oppression, slavery, as well as home-bred American terrorism. So this body said we are not going to support that type of symbolism nor the audacity to support that type of activity in the city of Detroit." It seems part of the council's ire comes from the same event two years ago. A stunt group called the Northeast Ohio Dukes re-created a "Dukes of Hazzard" jump in 2017 using a series-correct 1969 Dodge Charger, complete with a Confederate flag on the roof. Benson said the stunt group "expressly said they would not display that [Confederate flag] symbol during the jump." Not only was it displayed, but when driver Raymond Kohn gave interviews after the jump, his driving suit featured the Stainless Banner on the collar. Seems the council has been grinding its axe in silence for two years. Now Benson accuses Autorama of "a history of supporting images and symbols of racism, oppression, and white supremacy." Autorama is certain to take place March 1-3 at Cobo Center. This year's show will have around 800 cars on display, along with a special exhibit of 17 low riders and a Batmobile built by Flint native Carl Casper. Even if the Bandit car doesn't make the jump, the Trans Am and other memorabilia from the film will be there. A spokeswoman for Autorama said, "We are continuing to work to try to resolve this with the city."

Florida man runs down bikers in traffic

Tue, May 31 2016

A Florida biker and his passenger got a nasty surprise when a road rage incident turned ugly on Monday. According to WTSP, Joe Calderazzo was returning from a Veterans Memorial Day motorcycle rally around 5:30 pm with a group of fellow riders. During their ride, the group got entangled with an overly aggressive driver in a Pontiac. Abe Garcia of Tampa watched the silver Pontiac attempt to run the pack of bikers off the road, which started the altercation. The bikers caught up to the Pontiac in stopped traffic, and a shouting match ensued between the bikers and the Pontiac driver. At this point, Garcia pulled out his phone and started recording. The exchange escalated, and suddenly the Pontiac driver floored it, turned hard to the right, and ran over Calderazzo's Harley. The Pontiac mangled the Harley and knocked Calderazzo and his passenger to the ground. The Pontiac then fled the scene. WTSP spoke to Calderazzo as he was on his way to the hospital. "I thought the guy was trying to kill us obviously," said Calderazzo. "You know you don't know what's going through your mind. Is he going to put the car in reverse? Is he going to turn around? Is he going to stop and pull out a gun? You don't know what's going on." The Pontiac driver, a serial traffic offender named Robert Paul Vance, was picked up by police soon after the incident. He is charged with hit-and-run, a moving traffic violation, and aggravated battery.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
