New Eagle, Pennsylvania, United States
Please contact me at : carmelocbberube@ukdancers.com .
1966 GTO PHS documented numbers matching tri-power convertible. Found in a garage where it
had been stored since 1989 & not driven since. Engine does not run has rod bearing knock but it does turn by hand.
Sold new at a local Regseter Pontiac Upper Darby, Pennsylvania dealership. 1st owner was a female, owned car till
the mid 1970s & took very good care of the car. Second owner drove the cars for years before the engine developed
a bearing knock. The engine was then removed to check damage. The car was put into storage in 1989 as future
project, life happen, retired & moved south.
Since my recent purchase I put engine back into car to show it is nearly complete. The engine needs rebuilt &
does not run. The 389-360 hp tri-power engine is the original born with & matching numbers, block stamped YR,
cast number 9778789 with B 7 6 date, or February 7th 1966, cylinder heads cast # 093 with matching date of B 1 6.
Data plate shows this GTO was manufactured on the 03 D or March 4th week of 1966. Very nice original GM chrome air
cleaners & valve covers. Even the original spring clamp battery cables survived. Original unrestored tri-power
shows difficult to find vacuum linkage with survivor gold coloring on the carburetors.
The title shows 136,000 but speedometer shows 103,000. Silver Platinum paint with black interior & top. One
repaint in the early 1980s. Overall a very solid car. This car has survivor qualities such as all original Delco
spiral shocks are intact, all its original T-3 headlamp bulbs. All original interior accept carpet. Seats, door
panels & dash pad show very nice original with no rips or tears. Trunk shows solid pan with original splatter
paint. Solid floors. Most of the chrome & trim is nice & bumpers look nearly new . Convertible top is still
serviceable.

-389-360hp Tri-power

Very few project cars still have the original engine let alone the high horse power tri-power. Fix the mechanics
of this car & drive it as you restore it. Bring a trailer as car does not run & brakes do not work. Selling car
in as is where is condition with no warranty expressed or implied.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll
Tue, 25 Feb 2014
588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod
Fri, 21 Feb 2014There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.
