1968 Pontiac Gto Running Project Car With 2 Engines Phs Documented on 2040-cars
Virginia Beach, Virginia, United States
|
You are bidding on a 1968 Pontiac GTO driving project car that comes with 2 engines, The car has a His/Hers Hurst Shifter and is PHS Documented. The engine currently installed is a crate 350 bored over .030 with approximately 16,000 miles on it according to the previous owner. The car currently has a Turbo 350 Transmission I Purchased the car as it currently sits, except I had the shop to get the car safe to drive by replacing the brake booster, adjusting the new brake pads (The car pulls to the left when braking for some reason), fixing the fuel line, installing a new water pump, and fixing the rear light sockets. I had the intention to do a ground up restoration myself except I have a medical condition that has left me unable to do so, so I am selling the car. I procured a fully rebuilt Pontiac engine which is the correct YS 400/350 HP engine from a 1968 GTO. The car will need the following parts to do the body work, Hood, both Quarter Panels, both Outer Rocker Panels, Left and Right Front Floor Pans, Battery & a Turbo 400 Transmission. There are also some window and other misc parts to match the PHS documentation needed to make a correct or show car including Air Condition parts. All Other dents and rust can be fixed by the body shop because it is surface rust. The interior needs totally replaced because it is not correct to the car and is in bad shape. The Carpet and the hardware and dash components are the only things that can be salvaged. Upon purchase I will provide the PHS documentation as well as a laminated window sticker. The car was born with the color Vernando Green with Black Interior, and a Black Vinyl Roof. The old owner changed the paint color which is not a big deal because a color change only affects the car value as little as 1% as long as it was a color available for GTO's in 1968. The Rebuilt Engine has plenty of chrome and was meant to be a show engine. In addition the Engine rebuilder says that the Engine will put out more than 400 HP since being rebuilt. In addition to the body damage the Emergency Brake is pushed to the floor and needs replaced. Despite the dent in the driver side Quarter Panel and the Passenger Fender the car is pretty straight and the trim is in good shape and can be reused. The front of the car along with the Endura bumper is also in very good shape. The GTO also has a 12 bolt Posi-Traction rear end upgrade and and has 15" Weld Racing Chrome Rims.
The previous owner for some reason put on a Rear Bumper and Tail Lights are from a 1969 so you might want to sell them to get a 68 bumper and Tail Light assemblies, Ames Performance has the correct bumper for $369.99 plus shipping. The car is a 1968 by VIN Number and as mentioned this is a project car. By selling the installed engine, Transmission, Tail Light Assemblies, Rear Bumper and possibly the rims you can regain some money back to put the correct parts and interior in. If you buy the car I can help with websites and tips to get parts cheaper and information that was passed onto me from a Pontiac Specialist that taught me a lot to make the most valuable car possible. $500 Deposit Required via Paypal. The balance to be sent via Certified Check or Money Order, Please contact as soon as possible about payment and to make arrangements to have the car picked up. |

Junkyard Gem: 2010 Pontiac G6
Sat, Sep 12 2020What makes a discarded car a gem? Sometimes it's a car we all agree is very cool, and other times it's a car that tells us something about automotive history. Today's Junkyard Gem is the latter type: one of the very last Pontiacs sold, before The General shut out the lights forever on the storied marque after 84 years. The G6 was Pontiac's Epsilon-platform-based car, sibling to the Chevy Malibu, Saturn Aura, and Saab 9-3 (plus a bunch of Europe-only machinery). The very last Pontiac ever built was a white 2010 G6 sedan like this one (all '10 G6s were sedans, the coupe and convertible having been nixed in 2009), though that car was built in January of 2010 and this one came off the line in July of 2009. They build Bolts at the Orion Assembly plant these days. The higher-zoot G6s came with V6s or even V8s, but this car has "fleet machine" written all over it and has the base 2.4-liter Ecotec four-banger making 164 horsepower. Pontiac shoppers in the United States could buy the Vibe as a 2010 model as well, while Mexican Pontiac dealerships also sold new G2s (known as the Spark here) that year. The G6 was The Final Pontiac, though, bookending a run that began with the 1926 Pontiac Six. This one will go to its grave with the original owner's manual still inside. Even the cheapest 2010 G6s came with an AUX jack for the radio, a feature that was still maddeningly hard to find in rental cars a decade ago. This content is hosted by a third party.

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile
Sun, 29 Apr 2012Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
The U-2 spy plane needs high-performance cars to help land
Thu, Oct 15 2015Typically, aircraft deploy their landing gear from three main points. Most military aircraft, for example, deploy two gears at the back and one forward, like a tricycle. Some civilian aircraft flip the layout, with two in front and one in back - tail-draggers. The U-2 Dragon Lady is wildly different than any of these. With a 103-foot wingspan but a body that's just 63-feet long, the layout of the U-2 makes a traditional landing setup infeasible. Instead, the U-2 utilizes a pair of wheels, one up front and one in back. With such a bizarre layout, landings are so tough that since the U-2's earliest flights at Area 51, the US Air Force has used high-performance chase cars to guide the pilot down safely. The landing process isn't over there, though. As this video from Sploid shows, balancing out the aircraft to fit the detachable "pogos" – think training wheels for spy planes – is a comical procedure requiring a number of airman using their full body weight to even out the U-2. This video also recaps some of the great vehicles that have served as chase vehicles for this legendary spy plane. They include Chevrolet El Caminos, and the Fox-body Ford Mustangs so favored by the California Highway Patrol. For the last several years, the USAF has utilized products from General Motors, using fourth-generation Chevy Camaros, before switching over to the Pontiac GTO and most recently, the awesome Pontiac G8. It's fair to say that if you're a gearhead in the Air Force, this is the job you want. Check out the video, embedded up top.
