1959 Pontiac, Catalina Vista Top. The Vista model is a no post hardtop with a "wrap around" rear window for an unobstructed 360 degree view from any seating position. The car has all the original running gear with only 80000 original miles on the clock. It is equipped with the Pontiac 389 C. I. engine coupled to the legendary "Jetaway" transmission. Also has factory power steering for ease in parking. It is very quick off the line due to the low ratio starting low gear. The car has all the pep and power you could want. It operates very well at modern freeway speeds and simply "erases" hills. The car is "show ready" and you could drive it anywhere you like. No power brakes but manual brakes work very well. No AC.

This car is a very fun show car and always garners plenty of attention at shows. It has won many awards. The main body paint color is a special color which was created by Pittsburg Paint Company and now has a Pittsburg number. I have a small quantity of the paint in a can for touch up if needed. The color is a shade of pink with a hint of blue blended in which shows very strikengly in bright light or in low light. The top is white.

The interior is painted to match the outside. The upholstery is mainly a denim fapric which incoperates a " 50's Rock N Roll" theme in the design and is an exclusive one time pattern. Accents are in white vinyl which is a thick high quality material. The overall theme is accented with poodle dog images here and there inside and also on the fender skirts outside. We always called it the "Poodle Car" and usually display it with a collection of stuffed poodles. These will go to the new owner if wanted. The many trophies will also go with the car if wanted.

. It stays stored inside a locked secure garage when not in use.

Now for the few defects: (1). The heater core has begun to leak a little, so I bypassed the coolant supply to the heater so there is no heat in the car for now. I have a used good heater core which will go to the new owner. It takes about 3 or 4 hours to replace and is not a difficult job on this car. (2). The windshield has a small amount of white "clouding" in the corners which does not interfere with the view out the front. The side glass has some small heat bubbles at the edges. (3) The front windshield rubber seal has hardened over time and leaks a little from the top in a hard rain. (4) There is a small dent in the rear bumper (left side--see the pictures), but is barely noticable. (5) There are a very few paint defects, but the car is very presentable just as is. Not perfect, but not far off either.

. Please do me the courtesy of not bidding if you do not have the means to complete the deal. I require a deposit of $500.00 into my Paypal account within 24 hours of auction close. No exceptions and the deposit is NOT refundable under any condition. The balance is due in 5 days. The balance must be in the form of cash or bank wire transfer if you want to use Paypal then add $3.00 per $100.00 Dollars that paypal will charge me. I can be reached by phone my # is 503-589-0763 I am on Pacific standard time.

Baseball team to dress like Trans Am, complete with screaming chicken

Fri, Feb 8 2019

Come to think of it, the Screaming Chicken actually sounds like the name of a minor league baseball team. Well, it isn't, but the famous logo of the same name that graced the hood of the 1970s Pontiac Trans Am will at least be making it to a baseball uniform this summer. The Lansing Lugnuts, a Single-A affiliate of the Toronto Blue Jays, will be rocking these special uniforms to honor the late Burt Reynolds and his film Smokey and the Bandit. By default, it will also be honoring the car the movie made famous: the 1977 Trans Am painted black with gold trim and, of course, the screaming chicken on the hood. This is a pretty good history of the emblem. So why the Lugnuts and Burt Reynolds? Although he claimed to be born in Georgia for much of his career, he admitted in a 2015 autobiography that he was in fact born in Lansing, Mich. After a few years, his family settled in Florida. Not exactly hometown hero stuff, but minor league baseball promotions have been made of more tenuous connections. The Burt Reynolds tribute night will be July 20, and if you want to get a screaming chicken jersey for yourself (I mean, wouldn't they be perfect for a cars and coffee?), the game-used jerseys will be auctioned off for charity after the game.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.

Junkyard Gem: 2007 Pontiac G6 GT Convertible

Sun, Jan 8 2023

GM's Pontiac Division sold its first convertibles during the 1927 model year (just a year after the division's creation), then proceeded to offer memorable drop-tops for most of the following 83 years. The best-selling convertible to bear Pontiac badges during our current century was the retractable-hardtop-equipped G6, available from the G6's introduction in 2006 through the second-to-last model year of 2009 (the Sunfire convertible was available just through 2000, while the Firebird convertible vanished with the demise of the slow-selling Firebird itself after 2002). Here's one of those G6 GT convertibles, found in a Denver-region boneyard after a crash ended its driving career. Mashed right front, popped airbags. This sort of damage might have been worth repairing in 2009, but not today. The 2007 G6 was available as a coupe, sedan, or convertible. All the convertibles had the GT trim level and the 3.5-liter V6 and its 224 horsepower. The MSRP on this car was $28,750 (about $42,325 in 2022 dollars), making it the most expensive G6. The power hardtop roof folded up into the trunk, leaving 1.8 cubic feet of trunk storage space with the top down. This Karmann-designed roof system made the interior much quieter than that of a traditional soft-top convertible. All G6s were built at Orion Assembly in Michigan, where Chevy Bolts are born today. The G6 was built through the 2010 model year, making it one of the very last Pontiac models (the Vibe also made it to 2010, though it was really a Toyota Matrix). In hindsight, 2007 turned out to be an ominous year for GM.
