This is a very rare find, this car was purchased new by Mr HP Rouben on August 3, 1971.
Mr Rouben was a wealthy business owner from Decatur Georgia who had several vehicles deemed "Company Cars".
This particular vehicle was used for cross country "business" trips with the family
. Mr. Rouben caught the front fender on the passenger side , on one of his trucks in the warehouse, while backing the car out for a trip one day in 1984. He decide to take another vehicle and parked this one in the warehouse.
Unfortunately before the car could be repaired, Mr. Rouben passed away. All company vehicles were put in the warehouse by his family members along with other belongings, in a rural area in Atlanta, and locked away up until last year when a friend of mine purchased the building's belongings in an auction. The roof of the warehouse had received damage and leaked inside which caused some condensation in the cars nothing was damaged to the pontiac other than the vin plate rusted, and the headliner fell. The cars were vandalized at some point by scrap thieves who stole the radiators, keys, and tried to steal the heater core from this car. A homeless person had also broken into the warehouse and was using this car to sleep in. When I purchased the car the tires were flat and dry rotted, it had no keys, and was not running. I pulled it to the shop, replaced the distributor with an electronic one, replaced the plugs, the wires, the oil, the oil filter, radiator , the tires and had the steering column rebuilt and keyed. She now cranks and drives , needs a muffler, the brakes are spongy and the accelerator pedal sticks sometimes. I had plans for this car but it has done nothing but set since I got her running. I do crank her up at least once a week and drive her around the yard.
There is NO TITLE, it is not required in Georgia on a vehicle this old, It comes with a bill of sale and the last tag receipt (registration) ONLY. With that being said, it has only ever had one title, and the title number is on the last tag receipt, you should be able to petition the state of Georgia through your MVR for a title with your bill of sale, I would suggest you check before bidding.
This is a very straight and solid car and other than what I replaced, is 100 %  Original. The pictures speak for themselves.
Car must be paid for in full within 7 days of auction end afterwards you may have as long as need be in order to arrange transport. If you are picking up in person there is a local notary who can notarize the bill of sale for you for $5.00 and I recommend it.
Please ask any and all questions prior to bidding.
Thanks and God Bless.

Classic Pontiac Trans Am Firebird Super Duty 455 sells for nearly $90,000

Fri, Aug 25 2023

Historically, the Pontiac Firebird Trans Am raised the performance levels a notch or two over a plain Firebird in the muscle car hierarchy of the Sixties. But the Super Duty 455 version of the Trans Am — that number represents the cubic inches of the hand-assembled V8 engine — moved the performance needle big time in 1974. So much so that a clean example of the machine sold recently on the Hagerty Marketplace auction site for $89,296. Advertised with just under 54,000 miles on the clock and having undergone a thorough restoration, the Buccaneer Red model was one of just 943 Pontiac Firebirds equipped with the Super Duty 455 package for the 1974 model year. That build had also been offered in 1973. The Hagerty listing drew more than 21,000 views and 39 bids. According to Hagerty's valuation report, a similar car would be worth $85,700 in good condition, and $103,000 if it was in ‘“concours condition.” The Super Duty motor borrowed technology from the lineÂ’s 366-cubic-inch NASCAR engine, and featured heavy-duty connecting rods and an entirely new block with a revised crankshaft and heads to deliver a claimed 310 horsepower. The Firebird that sold was indeed loaded, with a three-speed Hydra-matic transmission (which surely reduced its overall value), power locks and windows, AC, dual exhausts, heavy duty stabilizer bars all around, and a “custom Interior trimmed in Red perforated Morrokide vinyl upholstery.” The entry of PontiacÂ’s pony car in the U.S., facing off against the Mustang and Camaro, dates back to 1967, when it was offered with an inline six and optional V8. The first Trans Ams were introduced two years later, the name derived from a handling package. General Motors ceased production of new Pontiacs in 2002 owing to declining sales and losing stakes in the sports coupe market. The big 455-cid V-8 had disappeared years earlier.

Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.

Junkyard Gem: 2001 Pontiac Aztek

Tue, Jul 11 2017

Ah, the Pontiac Aztek. Everyone laughs at the Aztek ... except, apparently, for Coloradans who like to go camping, bike riding, hiking, and all that outdoorsy stuff that folks do in the Centennial State. You'll see Azteks being driven, unironically and without shame, all over the place in the Denver region, and now plenty of them are showing up in the local wrecking yards. Here's a first-year-of-production example in its final campground. These minivans or crossovers (or however the experts finally decided to categorize them) had built-in air compressors, audio controls in the rear cargo area, and other features meant to enhance tailgating, camping, and other activities deemed central to Generation X's allegedly active lifestyle. You could even get an optional camping kit with a tent that attached to the rear of the Aztek. So, it was a General Motors minivan-like vehicle, cousin of the weird-looking Dustbusters of the 1990s, with lots of useful features for those who did more than just commute to work and drop off kids at school. Unfortunately for GM, the Aztek was staggeringly ugly, and Generation Xers were too damned broke to buy new cars in 2001, anyway. I see plenty of them in Denver-area wrecking yards now, along with their slightly-less-offensive-looking Buick Rendezvous siblings, and so I decided to document one before they're all gone.
