1967 Pontiac GTO Hardtop

You are viewing a beautiful privately owned 1967 Pontiac GTO Hardtop. This GTO is one of only 2967 400cu. In. 2 bbl. Cars built. Below is a complete description.

Exterior:
This GTO is painted in its beautiful original color of Linden Green Metallic (code H). The paint is 2 stage and has been wet sanded and buffed to a brilliant finish. It also has a beautiful black vinyl top which this GTO came with originally. The panels are arrow straight and upon my inspection has had the rear quarter panels professionally replaced. There is no rust in this body. All of the tinted glass is very nice. The chrome on the car is excellent. The trim is all in very good condition with the exception of a very small piece by the rear sail panel with could be buffed. The double black pin stripe is painted on and was done professionally by hand. You will notice this GTO has a power rear antenna which was an original option on this car. Rally II wheels with trim rings and redline bias ply tires are mounted on all 4 corners of this beautiful GTO to complete the stunning exterior.

Interior:
The Black interior, (code 223), of this beautiful GTO is just as nice as the exterior. The seats, door panels, carpet, center console, dash pad, bucket seats and rear seat are all ready to show. This interior came originally equipped with power steering, power disc brakes, factory air conditioning, tilt wheel, power rear antenna, custom seat belts, am radio, his and hers Hurst shifter and tinted glass. The owner has made me aware of the fact that the gas gauge does not work and a/c needs to be charged. The trunk as you can see also looks like new with the correct jack assembly and a spare tire.

Drive Train:
Under the hood is a clean engine compartment that is home to the 400 cubic inch 2bbl Engine. You will notice this engine now has a 4 bbl intake with a Holley carb but the owner has the original 2bbl intake and carb That goes with the car. This engine carries a casting code of 9786133 and a date code of J166. The stamp on the passenger side of the block shows 062782 and a suffix of XM showing this engine is in fact a 255hp 2bbl engine. The engine runs excellent. The shifting duties are taken care of with a turbo 400 3 speed automatic transmission. It carries a code of PT which shows it is for a 255 hp 2 bbl engine and does show the 67 year on the tag. The transmission shifts excellent. The rear differential is the correct 10 bolt open unit and carries a casting code of 9783393 and a date code of H166. The entire drive train operates excellent.

This is an excellent GTO that you can take to any show or cruise and expect to be considered one of the top cars there. If you have any question on this GTO please contact us.

This junkyard '91 Grand Am is as hooptie as it gets

Wed, Jun 29 2016

I spend a lot of time in junkyards. A lot of time. With all this experience, I have learned to recognize a perfect hooptie when I see one, a car whose final owner got every last bit of use out of it when its value was hovering right about at scrap value. This 1991 Pontiac Grand Am that I spotted in a San Francisco Bay Area self-service wrecking yard a few days ago, from the final model year for the third-generation Grand Am, checks all the hooptie boxes just right. First of all, it's a low-option coupe with the wretched and unloved GM Iron Duke engine, a rattly, gnashy, thrashy 2.5-liter four-cylinder kludged together using off-the-shelf parts from the Pontiac 301-cubic-inch V8 during the darkest years of the Malaise Era and used in cars whose buyers just didn't care. Most of the paint has been burned off by 25 years of harsh California sun, but the car spent sufficient time in a damp, shady spot for lichens to build up here and there. There are skeletons-with-sombreros stencils sprayed here and there, plus a big moonshine-guzzling skeleton mural painted on the hood. Goodbye, property values! Still, someone felt some affection for this car, giving it the name "Good Ol' Snakey" and painting that name on the decklid. We can assume that the Iron Duke was a bit loose by this time, probably leaving a serpentine trail of blue smoke behind the car at all times. So, the combination of cheapness, ugliness, menace, and who-gives-a-damn functionality make this Grand Am an excellent example of a pure hooptie. Within a couple of months, it will be crushed, shredded, shipped out of the Port of Oakland, and reborn in China as refrigerators and Geely Emgrands. Somewhere in Northern California, though, a few of Ol' Smokey's friends will remember this car fondly.

Junkyard Gem: 1984 Pontiac Fiero with supercharged 3800 V6 swap

Tue, Dec 31 2019

Like the Corvair, the Vega, and the Citation, the Pontiac Fiero was a very innovative machine that ended up causing General Motors more headaches than happiness, and Fiero aficionados and naysayers continue to beat each other with tire irons (figuratively speaking, I hope) to this day. The General has often proved willing to take the occasional big gamble and huge GM successes in engineering prowess (including the first overhead-valve V8 engine for the masses and the first real-world-usable true automatic transmission) and marketing brilliance (e.g., the Pontiac GTO and related John DeLorean home runs) meant that the idea of a mid-engined sporty economy car (or economical sports car) got a shot from the suits on the 14th floor. Sadly, the Fiero ended up being the marketplace victim of too many issues to get into here, and The General pulled the plug immediately after the 1988-model-year suspension redesign that made the Fiero the sports car it should have been all along. But what if the plastic Pontiac had never suffered from the misery of the gnashy, pokey Iron Duke engine and had been built from the start with a screaming supercharged V6 making way better than 200 horsepower? The final owner of today's Junkyard Gem sought to make that very Fiero, by dropping in one of the many supercharged 3.8-liter V6s installed in 1990s and 2000s GM factory hot rods. The first Fieros came out in 1983 for model year 1984, and the only engine available that year was the Iron Duke 2.5-liter four-cylinder, which generated its 92 horsepower with the full-throated song of a Soviet tractor stuck in the freezing mud of a Polish sugar-beet field. The 2M4 badging stood for "two seats, mid-engine, four cylinders," just as the numbers in the Oldsmobile 4-4-2 once represented "four carburetor barrels, four-speed manual transmission, dual exhaust." This car is a top-trim-level SE model, which listed for $9,599 (about $24,200 today). The no-frills Fiero cost just $7,999 that year, making these cars far cheaper than the only other reasonably affordable new mid-engined car Americans could buy at that time: the $13,990 Bertone (aka Fiat) X1/9. The Toyota MR2 appeared in North America as a 1985 model with a base price of $10,999 and promptly siphoned off the car-buying cash from a bunch of potential Fiero shoppers.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
