The Bad....

Needs exhaust from headers back, leaf springs, parking brake cables, rear shocks, gas tank and lines. Interior is in good shape, will need new seat buns, carpet and the normal TLC that goes with restoring a 44 year old car. Will need all weatherstripping.

Trans pan is leaking at gasket but new pan and gasket is included. The timing chain cover crank seal leaks a little. Car needs a speedo cable. The rear turn signals and brake lights do not function correctly because there is a 1968 under dash harness currently installed, I installed a new turn signal cam correct for 1969 and the connector on the under dash harness does mate as it should. Previous owner installed and alarm and sliced into harness. These two reasons is why I included a used 1969 harness. I also installed a new tail light wire harness. The fuel gauge does funtion correctly. Would recommend changing starter becasue of hot start problem when car has been driven and then turned off sometimes the starter will not crank until engine/exhaust cools down.

I described car to the best of my knowlegde and car is sold AS-IS. Car is available for showing if needed.

I will only accept Bank wire transfer or cash in person. Buyer is responsible for all shipping fees and arrangments. Please discsuss any payment/shipping issues prior to bidding... Thanks

Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO

Thu, 08 Aug 2013

Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.

Aficionauto sits down with The Hoff and KITT

Fri, 10 Oct 2014

The latest video from The Aficionauto is the perfect palate cleanser for Knight Rider fans after finding out that Justin Bieber is the voice of KITT in an upcoming film. Host Christopher Rutkowski says that the Knight Industries Two Thousand is one of the most requested vehicles to appear on the series and for good reason - Michael Knight's Pontiac Trans-Am is among the most famous cars to ever appear on television.
While the video isn't able to showcase one of the original KITTs from the series, it does get star David Hasselhoff to drive his personal replica and talk about the lasting legacy of the show. The highlight here might be seeing The Hoff back behind the wheel in the open desert basically recreating Knight Rider's opening sequence.
With all of its flashing lights and gizmos, you can probably make the argument that KITT is pretty cheesy, and the show itself was never exactly a pillar of high-quality drama on television. Despite that, the series still provides a ton of good-natured fun, and The Hoff's continued enthusiasm for it is pretty infectious. Check out The Aficionauto video to take another ride with Knight Rider.
