 Up for sale is a customized 1965 Pontiac GTO. NOT A CLONE. I have the PHS documentation which I will include in pics. The car was an original tri-power 389, 4 speed GTO.
It currently does not have the original motor and there are obviously some mods. But, would not take much to take it back to original condition or continue to keep it as a modified street rod.
I have owned the car for approx. 28 years. Always garaged whereas the past few years I have started up and rarely driven the vehicle every so often. I have purchased a new home and no longer have the time or money to put into the vehicle thus the reason I am selling.
The body is straight with no rust except for some minor dings and dents.
The hood has some scratches towards the front and center and there are some cracks around the hood scoop where the scoop was bondo'd onto the hood. The front springs were cut/ modified to lower the front end. The sides contain some minor scratches with the worst scratch being on the drivers side rear panel above the rear wheel whereas there is a small scratch and a small dent. The trunk lid needs a lock. The rear Pontiac cover contains some small dings and the rear bumper has a small area on the lower left that was welded together.
The engine is a 400 bored .030 over with a racing cam and a Holley double pump. The engine was built approx. 25 years ago and I do not have an accurate mileage on it due to there not being a speedo gear for the speedometer in the transmission. All electrical works although the wiring is original and should be replaced. It has a heavy duty clutch along with a stainless steel flywheel and a Muncie M22 4 speed. It has a racing drive line, ladder bars and 373 gears currently installed. (I also have 488 gears that will be included). There is no rust underneath or in floor and frame is straight. 
The interior is black and only in fair shape.
The dash pad has some cracks and the door panels are worn. The seats both front and back need to be reupholstered. The carpet is in fair condition and it needs a new headliner.
The vehicle starts up and runs but could use a good tune up from sitting in the garage to make it a daily driver.
My loss is your gain. The value of this car is the body being a straight original GTO and would not take much for someone to get this classic back on the road looking beautiful like she needs to be.
The vehicle is for sale locally in Flagstaff, AZ and I reserve the right to end the auction early if the car does sale locally prior to end of auction.
The vehicle is available for viewing at sellers location and I can provide more pics or information if necessary.
Payment is due within 7 days at end of auction. Bank transfer preferred. Vehicle will not be released until payment in full is verified by sellers bank.
Buyer will pay for and arrange for pick up and/ or shipping. Seller can assist in pickup/ loading if necessary.

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.

Junkyard Gem: 1989 Pontiac Sunbird SE Coupe

Sat, Jun 11 2022

General Motors built the fantastically successful J-Body cars starting at the dawn of the 1980s and continuing well into our current century, on five continents. The Pontiac Division's version of the J started out being called the J2000 and the 2000, then got the Sunbird name originally used on the Pontiac-ized Chevy Monza starting in 1983. Here's a once-slick-looking 1989 Sunbird SE Coupe, found at a Minneapolis-area boneyard way back in 2016. The best-known of all the J-Body cars, here, was the Chevrolet Cavalier, but Pontiac far outdid even the most blinged-up Cavalier Z24 when it came to elaborate taillights. Because this is Minnesota, the car is a patchwork of various layers of junkyard-obtained rusty body parts. One fender has TURBO badges from a Sunbird GT. The other side has the correct engine badges for this model. That engine is a 2.0-liter, single-overhead-cam straight-four from an engine family originally developed for the Opel Kadett D. This one was rated at 96 horsepower when new. This one has the automatic transmission, so it wouldn't have been very much fun to drive. Check out that cool parking brake handle, though! And, hey, is that a full can of Colorado Cool-Aid in the foot well? You'd think a proper Minnesota Pontiac would at least be full of Grain Belt cans. It appears that Higley Ford in Windom, Minn., had this car on the lot at some point. Windom is closer to Sioux Falls than to Minneapolis. This final mileage total looks good for a car living in Tinworm Country. Pontiac built this generation of Sunbird from the 1988 through 1994 model years, though it was really just a facelift of the first-generation cars. Starting in 1995, the Pontiac J-Body became the Sunfire, and production continued until the J platform itself got the axe in 2005. This content is hosted by a third party.

24 Hours of Le Mans live update part two

Sun, Jun 19 2016

We tasked surfing journalist Rory Parker to watch this year's live stream of the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans. What follows is an experiment to experience the world's greatest endurance race from the perspective of a motorsports novice. Parker lives in Hawaii and can hold his breath longer than he can go without swearing. For Part One, click here. Or you can skip ahead to Part Three here. I write about surfing for a living. If you can call it a living. Basically means I spend my days fucking around and my wife pays for everything. Because she's got a real job that pays well. Brings home the bacon. Very progressive arrangement. Super twenty first century. I run a surf website, beachgrit.com, with two other guys. It's a strange gig. More or less uncensored. Kind of popular. Very good at alienating advertisers. My behavior has cost us a few bucks. I'm terrible at self-censorship. Know there's a line out there, no idea where it lies. I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. For contests I do long rambling write ups. They rarely make much sense. Mainly just talk about my life, whatever random thoughts pop into my head. "Can you do something similar for Le Mans?" "Sure, but I know absolutely fuck-all about racing." "That's okay. Just write what you want." "Will do. But you're gonna need to edit my stuff. Probably censor it heavily." So here I am. I spent the last week trying to learn all I can about the sport of endurance racing. But there's only so much you can jam in your head. And I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. While I rambled things were happening. Tracy Krohn spun into the gravel on the Forza chicane. #89 is out of the race after an accident I missed. Pegasus racing hit the wall on the Porsche curves. Bashed up front end, in the garage getting fixed. Toyota and Porsche are swapping back and forth in the front three. Ford back in the lead in GTE Pro. #91 Porsche took a stone through the radiator, down two laps. Not good. The wife and I are one of those weird childless couples that spend way too much time caring for the needs of their pet. French bulldog, Mr Eugene Victor Debs. Great little guy. Spent the last four years training him to be obedient and friendly. Nice thing about dogs, when you're sick of dealing with them you can just lock 'em in another room for a few hours. You don't need to worry about paying for college.
