1967 Pontiac Firebird With 428/375hp Yh Code Engine, Solid Complete Project Car on 2040-cars
Vancouver, Washington, United States
Up for sale is my 1967 Pontiac Firebird project car. This is a very solid car and will make someone an outrageous street machine. The original 6-cylinder was pulled back in 1968 and a then-new '68 428 High Output engine was installed. The car was last running/driving about two years ago, and shows 86K miles on the odometer. This is a non-running/non-operable project car.
The engine is stamped with YH code, and has the original big-valve #16 heads on it. The intake manifold is a burley cast aluminum single-plane high rise without apparent casting marks.... original Pontiac parts counter HP manifold? Also, there's an emblem on the underside of the truck that says, "Phase 1." Not sure if it has bearing on the build of the car, but who knows? Motion? At any rate, this is an affordable "in" to a great classic muscle car. Trunk is solid, floors seem solid, rear wheel lips have some rust, lower rear rockers have bubbles under the paint. Hood had a factory hood tach that was stolen, and it has hood pins. Car has a small 70's sunroof in it that is amazingly still water-tight. The door panels, rear panels, rear seat, dash, gauges, passenger seat, and console are original and usable with some clean-up. Driver's bucket is non-original. Has later model small diameter steering wheel. Original color was Montreux Blue, with Deluxe black bucket seat/console interior... very pretty car. Early 70's GM wheels with very good radial tires. This is a good one to restore, or just get her running and hotrod around in a survivor classic. I am waiting for the title to arrive from the DOL, and have the proper and complete paperwork to transfer title now, or I can mail it to you in ~3 weeks when it arrives. The vehicle title is clear without liens or brands. I must reserve the right to end the auction early as I have it advertised for sale locally as well. Please feel free to call me to discuss your purchase at 360-936-9257. While every effort is being made to describe the car accurately, it is in fact a 47-year-old classic used vehicle, and being sold as-is, without any warranty or guarantee expressed, written, or implied. Shipping is the full responsibility of the buyer. I will make myself available for pickup on short notice. Payment must be made in full within 3 days via cash, bank wire transfer, or possibly major bank cashier's check... check with me first, please. No zero-feedback bidders without checking with me first, please. |

Jay Leno tries out a 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge that looks factory fresh
Tue, Jan 31 2017The latest machine to show up on Jay Leno's Garage is arguably the most iconic Pontiac GTO, the 1970 Judge. The example here is a radically red model and features all of the nifty Judge features, such as the mega-size rear wing, hood-mounted tachometer, and ram air hood scoop. The latter of which had a panel in the hood that would open up at full throttle to let in all that cool air from outside. The car is owned by the Wade Kawasaki, president of Coker Tires, a company that specializes in reproducing classic tires. Not surprisingly, his GTO features a set of the company's Firestone Wide Oval tires. That particular tire would have come with the car originally, but these new versions are built like modern radial tires, rather than the slippery bias-ply originals. The tires are indicative of how Kawasaki restored the rest of his Judge. Everything has been taken back to factory-spec. It has a stock, 400-cubic inch V8 that makes a supposedly underrated 366 horsepower, and it's complete with the chrome valve covers and foam intake seal. The tires are accompanied by exact replica GTO Judge wheels. The car even has the true, original interior. Somehow, the upholstery, dash, and other interior components survived in excellent condition. Check out the video above for more details on this flashy muscle car, as well as some reminiscing about the "good ol' days," and some history on the origins of the car's name. Related Video:
The prized golden 1965 Pontiac Hurst GeeTO Tiger is headed to auction
Sat, Apr 4 2020Once upon a time, a Pontiac advertising executive named Jim Wangers created a countrywide contest with this gorgeous 1965 Pontiac Hurst GTO serving as the grand prize. The contest was centered around "GeeTO Tiger," a song by musical artists The Tigers. A 19-year-old took home the golden muscle car at the time, but now anybody can buy the rare car through an upcoming Mecum auction. As a way to boost sales and awareness of the Pontiac GTO and its performance parts, Wangers partnered up with Royal Pontiac, George Hurst, and Petersen Publishing in 1965 to create a contest. Royal provided the car, Hurst dressed it up, and Petersen distributed the contest in publications across the country. In order to participate, people were asked to provide a reason why they wanted the car and identify how many times the word "tiger" was used in the promotional song "GeeTO Tiger" (pronounced G-Tee-Oh) by The Tigers. A 19 year-old kid named Alex Lampone from West Allis, Wisconsin, won the contest and took delivery of this jazzed-up GTO at the 1965 NHRA Indy Nationals. This content is hosted by a third party.

The Tigers - GeeTO Tiger The prize car was completely kitted out and described by Wangers as "the nicest GTO you could put your hands on." It had more than 28 factory options, including a black cordova top, power windows, power steering, power brakes, a tilt steering wheel, a power driver's seat, dual-speed windshield wipers, a custom sport steering wheel, a rally gauge cluster, a push-button AM/FM radio with power antenna, and a Verba phonic rear speaker. What makes it stand out is the Hurst-inspired gold theme, which includes gold paint, gold mag wheels, and a gold-plated Hurst Shifter. Under the hood, this GTO has a Tri-Power 389 V8 engine that pairs with a four-speed manual transmisison. It also has a 3.55 Safe-T-Track rear axle and dual exhaust. Throughout the years, this car has exchanged hands many times and has undergone a few changes. It's been repainted, and the engine has also been rebuilt, but Mecum says it's otherwise highly original. Ony 59,000 miles have turned over on the odometer. The GeeTO Tiger Pontiac is scheduled to go up for auction in Indianapolis this June. Visit Mecum for more information. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
