Up for auction is Motor Trend's car of the year for 1968, the legendary Pontiac GTO. Per the Pontiac Historical Society's paperwork, this Alpine Blue over Teal interior coupe was billed out to Dave Pyles Motors in Marlow Heights, Maryland on May 7th, 1968. The original owner, Mr. James L. Angel, selected the following Options for his 400 cubic inch, 24237 GTO Hardtop Coupe:

SVT Cordova Top 
354 4 Speed Manual Transmission
361 Rear Axle-Saf-T-Track-HD
382 Radio-AM Pushbutton
391 Rear Seat Speaker
453 Wheels-Rally II
472 Console
484 Cluster & Clock-Rally Gauge
731 Air Cleaner-Dual Stage-HD

James' GTO was restored more than a decade ago but still shows very well. The original drivetrain was rebuilt at the time of restoration and an in dash tachometer and Delco AM-FM radio were added. Both work great along with the all of the original options.

This GTO starts, hits high idle, runs, and shifts great. It's a wonderful driver with no squeaks or rattles. It's truly a joy to drive. 

The paint and optional Cordova top are in very good condition. Only minor nicks to note. I have taken many photos to highlight the finish. The interior shows real well including the seats, door panels, and carpet. The dash pad is cracked in the center. All window glass is in good shape.

The undercarriage is rock solid with no rust issues. Only minor scale due to age. Suspension bushings are newer and add to the wonderful driving experience. Again, many photos below highlighting the condition.

In addition to the PHS documents, This 1968 GTO retains the following original docs:

1968 Owner's Manual
1968 Owner Protection Plan & New Vehicle Warranty
GM Guardian Maintenance 1968 New Vehicle Pre-Delivery Check Sheet Dated 05-10-1968
GM Your Warranty Card
For A Better Understanding Of Your '68 Pontiac 24/24 Warranty
Do Your Share For Cleaner Air Card

Also included are service receipts from early 1969 as well as a few restoration photos.

In summary, if you're looking for a numbers matching, factory four speed, highly documented factory 24237 GTO Coupe in an ultra desirable color combination, this is the one for you. Inspections are welcomed and encouraged. The car is located in my climate controlled building in St. Charles, IL forty miles west of Chicago. Feel free to call John at 630-661-2442 to set up an appointment or answer any questions. I am happy to help the winning bidder with both storage and local or worldwide shipping. Good Luck!

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?

CNN chronicles young girl building Pontiac Fiero

Fri, 26 Oct 2012

At fourteen years of age, Kathryn DiMaria has already done what many self-proclaimed gearheads won't even attempt in their lifetimes. The Dearborn, Michigan teen is rebuilding a car from the ground up.
The intrepid youngster asked her parents when she was just twelve to start a Pontiac Fiero project, even offering to pony up all the funds herself. Father, Jerry DiMaria only expected the project to last a few months, but two years later, Kathryn is still at it. In this CNN video, the two are at Maker Faire (a DIY festival) rebuilding a 3.4-liter V6 engine out of a Chevrolet Camaro to replace the 2.8-liter mill found in the Fiero.
The whole family hast pitched in, with Kathryn's mother teaching her how to sew in order to complete the interior, father Jerry providing much of the technical know-how, and even her sister is chronicling Kathryn's progress through photos. Jerry even started a thread in a Fiero forum which has been live for two years and is now 22 pages long. Of the project, one forum member wrote, "welcome to the madness."

MotorWeek's 80's GM muscle coupe roundup includes Regal GN and Monte Carlo SS

Thu, Jan 29 2015

Even with just four brands in the family, General Motors still represents a performance powerhouse. Between the Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Camaro Z/28, Cadillac CTS-V and ATS-V, The General can still deliver plenty of thrills. The 1980s, though, saw the brand go even crazier with performance. While the Camaro and Corvette were still around back in the day, GM had a number of other interesting performance offerings. The Bowtie was complemented by the long-deceased Monte Carlo SS, while the now-defunct Pontiac and Oldsmobile offered the Grand Prix and thumping 442, respectively. And Buick, which isn't short on performance with its Regal GS and Verano Turbo, offered a much more serious vehicle, in the form of the Grand National (not to mention the Darth Vader-spec GNX). MotorWeek, in its hugely entertaining retro flashbacks, looks back on these three long-lost GM performance icons, and it's just as good as you might expect.
