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.

Burt Reynolds' personal 1977 Trans-Am from Smokey And The Bandit for sale

Fri, Dec 5 2014

Smokey and the Bandit is one of those quintessential 1970s car movies with insane premises but tons of fun. After all, the basic plot of the film is about distracting the police to transport cases of Coors beer cross country. While Burt Reynolds receives top billing, the real star is definitely his black Pontiac Trans-Am. Now, there's a chance to posses one of these muscle machines actually owned by Reynolds, and it's already proving quite popular. The car is a '77 Trans-Am with the famous, gold screaming chicken proudly on the hood. However, while this is a piece of Reynolds memorabilia, it's not really part of cinematic history. According to the listing, this example was used as a promotional vehicle and then given to Reynolds with a title showing him as a previous owner for proof. Still, there's 400-cubic-inch (6.55-liter) V8 under the hood with a 4-barrel carburetor and an automatic transmission. A plaque inside the driver's door proclaims the car as a "1977 Pontiac Trans Am Owned By Burt Reynolds," and there's a Bandit logo on the door. This is just one lot of Julien Auction's sale of Reynolds memorabilia on December 11 and 12 at The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, NV. Bidding is already running online, and the Trans-Am is up to $130,000, as of this writing. For the true Reynolds fanatic, the auction also lists the motorized stagecoach from his wedding to Loni Anderson. It rides built on an International Harvester Scout frame with an interior reportedly from Dolly Parton.

Both front, outboard lap belt pretensioners are being replaced, and a stop-sale is in effect on unsold models until the problem is repaired. There are no known crashes or injuries, though.

Junkyard Gem: 1987 Pontiac Safari Station Wagon

Tue, Aug 9 2016

During the 1960s and 1970s, station wagons based on full-sized Detroit sedans were the default family haulers, and many of those Kingswood Estates and Country Squires and Ambassadors came with unapologetically phony woodgrain-printed exterior paneling and trim. By the late 1980s, however, few were snapping up such wagons, making this '87 Safari that I spotted in a Denver yard an interesting find. Power for this wagon came from a 307-cubic-inch Oldsmobile V8 making 140 horsepower. General Motors used this engine in Buicks, Oldsmobiles, Chevrolets, Pontiacs, and Cadillacs, finally discontinuing production for the 1990 model year. Was the "wood" convincing, even when new? Of course not, but it was a cherished American tradition. Related Video: Featured Gallery 1987 Pontiac Safari station wagon in Colorado junkyard View 18 Photos Auto News Pontiac station wagon
