1966 Pontiac Gto Convertible on 2040-cars
Aitkin, Minnesota, United States
1966 Pontiac GTO convertible with original interior
It is a mostly unrestored car. Everything I have done to it is with an eye to drivability, it is returnable to
completely original in one weekend. It was painted once about 9 years ago, pinstripe removed, very limited
bodywork required - body is straight as an arrow and pictures during paintwork and reciept are supplied in the
documentation. I have provided pictures down both flanks. The interior is original and untouched, down to the
weatherstripping on the doors and original knobs and buttons. The sticker for the original owner's parking pass
from where he worked in is still affixed to the rear view mirror. The knobs and buttons have an original patina,
the headlights and brights appear to be original equipment. I have a copy of the original order sheet, original
options, owner's manual, PHS documentation, and the warranty card mailed to the original owner, Mr. James Brock of
Wisconsin who took delivery in May 1966. He was 48. It was kept by him until he was 89 years old, passing it to
his son, in July of 2007, where it was titled again in Wisconsin. The car title almost immediately passed to a man
who knew the family and had an eye on the car who lived in Kansas, that same month, so I consider him to be the
second owner. At the time, it had 67,832 miles on it. He spent over 10k on paintwork, then appeared to have a
change of heart and sold the car to me. He did not drive the car very much, as I purchased the car less than 2k
miles after he bought it and less that a year after it left the body shop with 69,522 miles. I have all paperwork
documenting this and they are photographed above. motor.

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
Pontiac Aztek enjoys rebirth thanks to Millennials
Fri, Sep 11 2015Apparently, Millennials – those between 18 and 34 – aren't afraid to look different on the road, and they like performance, too. A new study by Edmunds is discovering some surprising vehicle choices by this group. Among them, the long-derided Pontiac Aztek is getting a new day in the sun with 25.5 percent its buyers coming from this generation in the first half of 2015. For comparison, Millennials represent an average of 16.8 percent of used car purchases. The Aztek is slowly shaking its reputation as a styling abomination, which seems tied to its appearance on Breaking Bad. The show premiered in 2008, and the Pontiac has been on this list for four of the past five years, according to Edmunds. It even led the pack in 2010. A recent Retro Review from MotorWeek also showed that the crossover wasn't always so hated. While it's still a shock to see the Aztek on any popularity list, the awkward-looking crossover only ranks sixth among Millennials. The vehicle with the biggest portion of buyers from the generation is the Dodge Magnum with 27.6 percent. According to Edmunds, the bluntly styled wagon is especially popular in Detroit and Chicago. The Chrysler Pacifica comes in a close second at 27.3 percent. When it comes to used cars, value and utility appear to trump just about anything else for many Millennial buyers," Edmunds analyst Jeremy Acevedo said in the report. Young buyers aren't afraid of sporty rides, either. The Subaru WRX has 26.4 percent Millennial buyers to rank third place on the list, and the Volkswagen R32 takes fifth at 25.7 percent. Just a few points lower in seventh place is the Nissan GT-R at 25.4 percent, and the final performance machine in 10th place is the Lexus IS-F with 24.7 percent. Related Video:
This Auto Aerobics car art ties our brains in knots like pretzels
Sat, 14 Dec 2013We like cars, and we like art. Naturally, Chris Labrooy's Auto Aerobics series - computer-generated images of some seriously contorted 1968 Pontiac Bonnevilles floating in mid-air - instantly clicked with us. If the Pontiacs weren't floating or hollow, we could be fooled into believing the image is real. But where's the fun in that?
Check out the gallery we included of Labrooy's Bonneville art, and feel free too head over to his website for some Formula One humor.
