1965 Pontiac GTO For Sale
This car has been in a heated garage since 1999. I have owned for less then a year with initial intentions to restoring it and finishing the restoration that was already started when I purchased it. I have put $1500.00 into the car to get it roadworthy after its long sleep in the last 4 months with anticipation of keeping it. My life path has made new plans for me and I already have a '66 so thats where I'm at... This car is complete and prior to 1999 the previous owner had done a lot of work and and purchased a lot of new parts from Ames and Year One with intentions of restoring it himself with the help of professionals. It is a perfect restoration candidate. It has low miles and and only a couple of owners. To the best of my knowledge it has been in Utah since new. It starts right up and sounds great. It drives pretty tight like a low mileage car should. It goes through all gears flawlessly. I replaced clutch recently. It stops well. All of the wheel cylinders and rear brake lines replaced. It has new brake shoes on the front and new master cylinder. It has all new shocks and all new springs. Front end rebuilt by previous owners. The wheels and beauty rings / center caps appear to be original. Tires are in good shape, 15 inch. New Gas tank, sending unit and fuel line. Recent tune up and tripower gone through. New battery. It has new mufflers and tailpipes. Heater core replaced and heater works great. Does not overheat. Refurbished orig. radiator. I have driven this car around town and also have cruised comfortably on highway at 75mph. I have a current Utah inspection. All lights and signals work nicely. The previous owner told me that while he had it in the '90's the 389 has been rebuilt along with( the 4 speed and posi rear end as well! It appears to be the case when looked over by mechanic. Power steering no power brakes. Includes extra set of tri-power heads...(Stamped 77) Paint appears to have the original paint on majority of the car with other parts that have been repainted. There are a few misc doinks but nothing major. There is rust in rear quarters and a lil on bottoms of doors but other then that pretty solid.(see Pics) The trunk is solid and the rails and floors are solid. Have not found use of any major bondo repairs. Chrome numbers are straight but oxidized in places. Grill is nice. Doors shut nice and firm with no sag. Interior is original but carpet has been replaced. It has seat belts. Headliner is near perfect. A couple of misc tears in driver seat. Rear seat is beautiful. New rear speaker assembly. Dash is complete and all gauges work accurately. New glove box insert.** Extra set of near perfect black door panels included without the aftermarket speaker holes cut in them. All Glass is good with no chips. Wipers and pump work good. Wood wheel is in nice shape. Includes all handles, knobs and switches. Only thing missing is console:(. I plan on posting specific pictures upon request. Please feel free to contact me directly for additional questions or any concerns. I plan on getting all of the numbers(block,manifold, heads) listed on description on Monday. I am motivated seller but I'm not giving it away. Its a special car and great opportunity to restore. I reserve the right to end auction early and sell locally outside ebay if someone is serious. Car is available for inspection. Located in Salt Lake City.

This massive 'Knight Rider' KITT model costs over $1,400
Tue, May 18 2021A new model of the famed Pontiac Firebird from the 1980s TV show Knight Rider is here, and it's massive. The shadowy flight into the dangerous world of this subscription-based kit by DeAgostini will result in a car that measures nearly two feet long, cost more than $1,400, and take you over two years to complete. For years, subscription-based model kits have been a tradition for hobbyists in Europe and Asia. Should you sign on, each week you'll receive a package in the mail that includes a few parts for the model and some literature on the subject. Usually there are additional collectibles and accessories, like a display case. The DeAgostini KITT kit, for example, begins with the hood for the first issue. The asymmetric bulged and scooped body panel comes with a several smaller body pieces and a small screwdriver. Issue two comes with the front fascia, KITT's red scanner light, and three of the six driving lights. Issue three gives you a tire, wheel and brake components for one of the four corners. And so it goes. When all is said and done, you'll receive 110 such packages over a span of so many weeks. In other words it'll take two years and one-and-a-half months to complete the black, 1:8 scale Pontiac. There are some discounted prices for the first few issues to get you hooked, but once you get settled in the regular price for each issue is ˆ10.99 ($13.36 USD). Here's a preview the 16-page pamphlet that accompanies the first issue. By the end, you should have a pretty comprehensive compendium of the Knight Rider series as well. The issues are available on newsstands, but subscribers get additional gifts — two 1:43 scale models, one of KITT and one of his nemesis KARR. And for an additional ˆ1.00 per issue, you'll receive an acrylic display case. As for the Knight Industries Two Thousand itself, the car appears to be incredibly detailed. As depicted on the DeAgostini website, the hood, doors, trunk and T-top roof panels all open. The red scanner lights up, the rear license plate rotates for three options, and there even seems to be a watch that commands the model to speak some of KITT's catch phrases. Knight Rider — or Supercar as it was called in Italy — told the episodic story of a former police officer, Michael Knight, who fought crime with his A.I.-powered car. As such, the TV car and the the model have a heavily computerized (by 1980s standards) dashboard and yoke steering wheel.

Gordon Murray, F1-driven production and .. the Pontiac Fiero
Tue, Oct 31 2017Gordon Murray's design and engineering chops are unquestionable. But does his carmaking approach owe something to the short-lived Pontiac Fiero, a scrappy little car program that emerged from GM against serious resistance? Murray had a Formula One career that ran from 1969 to 1991, with stints at Brabham ('69 to '86) and McLaren ('87-'91), that resulted in several shelves' worth of trophies for the cars he was instrumental in designing. He moved on to McLaren Cars, the consumer side of things, where, during his tenure from 1991 to 2004, he helped design the McLaren F1 and the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, two cars that took learnings from his two decades in Formula One. What do all of these cars have in common? Three things: They are light. They were built in limited numbers. And they were (and are) exceedingly expensive—when the McLaren F1 debuted in 1994, it stickered at $815,000. Murray went on to establish Gordon Murray Design in 2007. GMD has created some interesting concept vehicles, such as the diminutive T.25 city car (94.5 inches long, 51.1 inches wide and 55.1 inches high), and the OX, a lightweight truck for the developing world that packs like an IKEA shelf and is working toward realization through a worthy crowdfunding campaign established by the Global Vehicle Trust. Now he has created a vehicle manufacturing company, Gordon Murray Automotive, that will use manufacturing methods that he developed under the moniker "iStream." Unlike a unibody, there are the "iFrame," a cage-like construction made with metallic components, and the "iPanels," which are composite. The panels aren't simply a decorative skin; they actually provide structure to the vehicle. Presumably this has something of the F1 monocoque about it. Going back to the three elements, (1) this arrangement results in a vehicle that can be comparatively light; (2) Murray has indicated that his manufacturing company will be doing limited-run production; and (3) to launch Gordon Murray Automotive they are going to be building a flagship model, about which Murray said, "With our first new car, we will demonstrate a return to the design and engineering principles that have made the McLaren F1 such an icon." Which seems to imply that it will be on the pricey side. According to the company's verbiage, "iStream forges an entirely new production method that defies conventionality with its Formula One-derived construction and materials technologies." It also sounds a whole lot like ...
