1967 Pontiac GTO Hardtop - ALL ORIGINAL DRIVETRAIN - Numbers matching (from motor to rear end) - FACTORY AC and Power Steering

NO RESERVE AUCTION!

I am selling my 1967 Pontiac GTO, factory 400 - ALL ORIGINAL DRIVETRAIN. The car has been a loyal driver and never caused ANY problems in my ownership. The thing runs and drives line a brand new car. Starts right up, never stalls or lags, and has consistent great power all the time. I will tell you that EVERYTHING on this car works perfectly and is factory . I will explain the issues with the car below. You can tell from the pictures that the car has been well maintained and is in great condition. The car has years and years of receipts and documentation for all maintenance and service done to the car.  The car has factory AC and Power Steering. A rare combo!

Body/Paint: 10 - the body is perfectly straight and paint is a dual stage with clear coat. the car has been colored sanded and shines like a brand new paint job. The chrome is in perfect condition with the exception of some pitting on the passenger side headlight bezel. There are ABSOLUTELY NO SCRATCHES OR DENTS IN THE BODY or PAINT. All of the rubber trim and seals are new and have no cracks or discoloration. 

Interior: 8 - The interior shines like new and the carpet is in great condition. The only reason I am giving the interior 8 out of 10 is because the stereo is not working (needs a small tube fuse which I don't know where to buy) and the center console has some small surface scratches in the wood grain/veneer cover. See for yourself in the pics.

Engine/Mechanical 8 - The car starts up, runs and drives PERFECTLY. The car has some leaks (as you would expect from a car this old) because the motor is all original and has only been serviced. It never needed a complete rebuild because the car was driven very selectively. The only mechanical issue is that the air conditioning does not turn on. I've had it working in the last few months but one of the wires coming off the compressor got disconnected and I don't know where it hooks back up to. The car HAS freon and the compressor/clutch system DOES operate flawlessly. it's just a wiring issue cause i cannot get it to even turn on when i hit the switch. Also, the water from the windshield washer jets doesn't pump. This is also a wiring issue. Very easy fix, I just don't know where to look. EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS PERFECTLY. No other electrical issues. All the lights and gauges work fine and are accurate. The car has an aftermarket Holley carburetor and Hooker headers with exhaust system. it sounds quiet at idle but MEAN under throttle. 


I am selling this car  NO RESERVE because I think people will recognize that this is a solid, original car and well worth it's value. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

Are orphan cars better deals?

Wed, Dec 30 2015

Most folks don't know a Saturn Aura from an Oldsmobile Aurora. Those of you who are immersed in the labyrinth of automobilia know that both cars were testaments to the mediocrity that was pre-bankruptcy General Motors, and that both brands are now long gone. But everybody else? Not so much. By the same token, there are some excellent cars and trucks that don't raise an eyebrow simply because they were sold under brands that are no longer being marketed. Orphan brands no longer get any marketing love, and because of that they can be alarmingly cheap. Case in point, take a look at how a 2010 Saturn Outlook compares with its siblings, the GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave. According to the Manheim Market Report, the Saturn will sell at a wholesale auto auction for around $3,500 less than the comparably equipped Buick or GMC. Part of the reason for this price gap is that most large independent dealerships, such as Carmax, make it a point to avoid buying cars with orphaned badges. Right now if you go to Carmax's site, you'll find that there are more models from Toyota's Scion sub-brand than Mercury, Saab, Pontiac, Hummer, and Saturn combined. This despite the fact that these brands collectively sold in the millions over the last ten years while Scion has rarely been able to realize a six-figure annual sales figure for most of its history. That is the brutal truth of today's car market. When the chips are down, used-car shoppers are nearly as conservative as their new-car-buying counterparts. Unfamiliarity breeds contempt. Contempt leads to fear. Fear leads to anger, and pretty soon you wind up with an older, beat-up Mazda MX-5 in your driveway instead of looking up a newer Pontiac Solstice or Saturn Sky. There are tons of other reasons why orphan cars have trouble selling in today's market. Worries about the cost of repair and the availability of parts hang over the industry's lost toys like a cloud of dust over Pigpen. Yet any common diagnostic repair database, such as Alldata, will have a complete framework for your car's repair and maintenance, and everyone from junkyards to auto parts stores to eBay and Amazon stock tens of thousands of parts. This makes some orphan cars mindblowingly awesome deals if you're willing to shop in the bargain bins of the used-car market. Consider a Suzuki Kizashi with a manual transmission. No, really.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.

Question of the Day: Most degraded car name?

Fri, May 27 2016

When Ford came up with a not-so-sporty version of the Pinto and slapped Mustang badges on it in 1974, that was a low point for the Mustang name. When Chrysler applied the venerable Town & Country name on perfectly functional but unglamorous minivans, it saddened many of us. But perhaps the biggest demotion for a once-proud model came when, in 1988, General Motors imported a misery-enhancing Daewoo from Korea and called it the Pontiac LeMans. The original Pontiac LeMans was a great-looking midsize car with fairly advanced (for the time) suspension design and engine options including potent V8s and a screaming overhead-cam straight-six. The Daewoo-based Pontiac LeMans was a cramped, shoddy hooptie that served only to ruin the LeMans name forever, while stealing sales from the Suzuki-based Chevrolet Sprint. Sure, using the once-respected Monterey name on the Mercurized Ford Freestar was bad, but Mercury didn't have long to live at that point. I say the downward spiral of the LeMans name was the most agonizing in automotive history. What do you think? Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
