WILL NEED BONDED TITLE WILL NEED BONDED TITLE
 This is a 1968 Pontiac GTO.  A real 242 GTO.
Its quite rare as this is a basically a low to no-option car.
This is a low option car, no power steering, no ac, no power brakes.
It has a two barrel 400, but ive never tried to figure out if its the original motor or not.  They did come that way, and judging by the fact that this is a no option car, its likely it is the original engine.
It does have what I believe to be the original 3 speed manual transmission, it is the FOMOCO 3 speed. A Dearborn m13.
The car has minimal rust.  The floor pans are in great shape, trunk pan needs minor work
Worst part of car is passenger quarter panel  I think it must have sat with that side down and water collected in that part, because the drivers side looks like a completely different car.
It looks as if the body was off at some point and the frame was painted.
The front fenders are off of a LeMans
Car has spare parts in the trunk.  but if you dont see it in the pics, it isnt included with the car.
It has been sitting under a carport for the last 4 years or so.
Car has spent its entire life in Central Texas.
I do have the Texas title to the car, however it was signed in the wrong spot many years ago.
Two years ago I did do the paperwork for the bonded title, but then deployed overseas and never got around to it.
Since I have the original paper title it is no problem to get a bonded title, just mainly the purchase price of the bond, which was $250 when I was going to do it before, but at the time just didnt have the funds.
WILL NEED A BONDED TITLE IN TEXAS, Your state may vary.
Buyer will need to get a bonded title if in Texas.  I will include the bill of sale from my purchase of the car and a bill of sale from me to the new buyer.
Car is located in RED ROCK TEXAS 78662.
A NON REFUNDABLE $500 deposit is due immediately at end of auction, with full payment within7 working days. Car to be picked up within 20 days.  Cash is Preferred for remaining balance. Personal Check is acceptable but must wait to clear before picking up car.
Car must be removed from location within 20 days of the end of auction or car will be relisted and I will keep the deposit unless other arrangements are made.
Buyer is to arrange all shipping. Car will need to be trailered.   I am willing to deliver it within 300 miles of Red Rock TX at the cost of 1.50 a mile.

Distracted driver crosses center line and hits police car

Wed, Apr 6 2016

Attentive driving and quick reflexes saved the life of a police officer in Hudson, WI, when an oncoming driver drifted into the officer's lane and struck his cruiser. According to KMSP, the officer was patrolling along a busy road through Hudson on March 31 when the crash occurred. Dash cam video from the patrol car which was released to local media shows the dramatic collision unfold. As the officer came around a mild left-hand curve, a white, 90s-era Pontiac Grand Am continued straight through the curve, across the center line, and directly into the officer's path. The officer was able to avoid a head-on collision, but the Pontiac still struck the driver's side of the patrol car. "Both the officer and the other driver are ok, however, this accident could have been much, much worse," said a Hudson Police Department official on the department's Facebook page. "So please remember to pay attention to your driving at all times when behind the wheel." Minnesota's Department of Public Safety estimates that one in every four crashes in the State of Minnesota are caused by distracted drivers. DPS believes that the actual number may be higher, but police often have difficulty proving distracted driving as the cause of a crash. Government/Legal Pontiac Driving Safety Coupe Police/Emergency

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

In the early '60s, Baby Boomers born immediately after World War II were beginning to buy cars and enjoy their own distinctive music. This wasn't yet the drug culture; rather, it was the drag culture, more Jan and Dean "Dead Man's Curve" than Beatles "Lucy In The Sky." And a Baby Boomer's desired ride, more often than not, was Pontiac's GTO. Introduced as a manned-up option for Pontiac's compact Tempest, the early GTO was 389 cubic inches of romp and stomp. And with a marketing campaign that hit Middle America via what it watched and ate (TV ads and cereal-box promos were a big part of the GTO launch), there was no escaping it. Like most performance coupes and convertibles, 10 years later it was became an emasculated version of its once lusty self. And then it was gone. Its revival, championed by General Motors executive Bob Lutz, was not by any stretch the Second Coming. Starting in 2004, GM modified its Australian-built Holden Monaro to approximate the excitement of the original formula: a coupe body propelled by a big V8. But the Holden's sheetmetal was quietly styled, and even the 400 horsepower available by 2006 didn't electrify buyers. With hindsight, the resurrected GTO is enjoying more attention and, slowly but surely, increasing in value. This for-sale example shows well, enjoys low mileage, and is – naturally – priced well above what is perceived to be its market value. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
