1969 Pontiac GTO Frame-Off Restored Car-Fantastic Color Combination This is a rare opportunity to own an authentic code 242 GTO. This goat came from Arkansas, and still has the clean and clear title from that state issued in 1989. I will try to list everything that was done to this striking Matador Red beauty. The super nice rust free frame was removed from the body to be media blasted, and then nicely finished in POR-15. The body was meticulously prepped, and the paint work was applied with three coats of Dupont Matador Red basecoat, followed by three coats of the very expensive PPG clearcoat. The body was then buffed at three different finishing levels to bring out the deep rich shine as evident by the pictures. A brand new black vinyl top was applied to the roof, and then a brand new tinted windshield was installed at that time. There is all new weather stripping, new window felts, new door gaskets, new pillar gaskets, and a new trunk gasket. There are new door locks, and a new trunk lock. The freshly detailed frame has a new set of body mount bushings. The other new items include new ball joints, new u-joints, new inner and outer tie-rod ends, new upper and lower control arm bushings, new rear control arm bushings, a new center link, new sway bar bushings and stabilizer links. There is a new set of shocks and springs to make this Pontiac sit up like when it rolled out of the factory in 1969. The fenders are both very solid and rust free with no filler. The doors are clean and still have the original seams at the bottom. The quarter panels are very nice originals with clean inner and outer wheel wells. There is a factory original dual scooped GTO hood, and a new air filter inside the correct factory original 1969 dual snorkel air cleaner with a new chrome lid. The endura nose is in very nice condition. All four stainless steel wheel opening moldings are original and were high speed polished. Both chrome rocker moldings are new with a new triple-plated chrome rear bumper. The body is dressed with all brand new GTO emblems. There is a brand new 4-core radiator for maximum cooling of this Big Block 400 cubic inch engine. The 4-barrel Quadrajet carburetor is completely rebuilt with numbers that match a 1970 GTO. It sits on top of the correct 1969 GTO high rise intake manifold. The correct GTO 7-blade fan clutch cools down this High Output Big Block Pontiac 400 from 1967 with large valve heads. This HO motor really fires right up and runs like a high performance wristwatch. The engine is hooked up to the correct 1969 GTO exhaust manifolds with new 2 1/4" dual exhaust pipes from front to back with Magnaflow mufflers, and the new correct chrome 1969 GTO exhaust tips. This engine Purrr's and Grrrr's then growls with a light step of the right foot like a real champion Gran Turismo Option goat should. This sweet GTO Big Block 400 has a new distributor cap, new plugs, new points, new condenser, new rotor, and new Taylor 10 MM wires for maximum spark. There has been a fresh oil change and oil filter to prepare this goat for the first 1500 miles driven by the new owner. There is a new heater core, new oil pump, new double roller timing chain, new coil, new voltage regulator, new starter, new fuel pump, new water pump, new alternator, new master cylinder, all new belts, all new hoses, all new transmission lines, all new pre-bent factory brake lines, all new fuel lines, all new gaskets, all new disc brake pads in the front, new brake shoes in the rear, all four new wheel cylinders, and all new braking hardware. This goat is fired up by a new Napa Legend 75 battery with new battery cables, and new positive and negative battery terminal ends. All of the reproduced original factory decals were placed in the proper areas to give this GTO the same appearance as the day it rolled out of the factory onto the showroom floor 45 years ago in 1969. Since virtually everything is new, like new, or reconditioned, the speedometer has been set to all zero's, so the new owner will have the pleasure of knowing exactly how many miles they have driven from day one of their purchase. The transmission is the correct 1969 GTO Turbo Hydromatic 400 PX transmission that shifts like a goat should with a new shifter cable. This GTO was factory ordered with power steering, power front disc brakes, AM radio, bucket seats, and a console. I could not find a new front factory speaker in time for the auction, so the original AM radio is not hooked up. The choice of sound with be left up to the lucky winner of this awesome goat. The nice black interior has a new dash pad, and a new headliner with new black carpeting that has the extra sound deadener padding. There is a new set of four black carpeted floor mats to keep the new carpet like new. The original owner's manual is still in the glove compartment. There are a pair of brand new door sills, so as you step into this goat it virtually feels like you're at your local Pontiac dealer stepping into a brand new 1969 GTO. The entire interior is in relatively nice condition as seen in the pictures. The original floors are in very nice solid condition, and were nicely detailed with Satin black paint to make the undercarriage appear factory fresh. This goat has a 10-bolt positive traction 3.55 rear-end. It rides on a brand new pair of 215/70R15" Cooper Cobra raised white lettered steel belted radials on the front, and a pair of 275/60R15" Cooper Cobra's on the rear mounted on nicely detailed Pontiac Rally II wheels. There are a fresh new set of four correct black PMD center caps, and a brand new set of four beauty trim rings. The rally II wheels are bolted on with a new set of the correct 1969 GTO chrome lug nuts with the black inset. The inside sides of the trunk pan are original, but the center portion has been replaced with the correct center trunk panel. The trunk floor was then nicely detailed with black and aqua spatter spray to make it appear factory correct. An original jack and the original hard to find nubby crow bar sits on top of a new aftermarket replacement trunk floor mat. The trunk also carries a full size spare in case there is a mishap on the road you can be back driving in minutes with a quick tire change looking complete. An exorbitant amount of time, money, and effort went into the frame-off restoration of this sweet GTO. The intention was to bring it up to show quality status. Although I am classifying this car as a super nice daily driver, and not a museum piece trailer queen. What you see is exactly what you get!! The Nada Classic Car Price Guide that anyone can look up on line currently has the 1969 Pontiac GTO with rally wheels listed at $63,315 in high condition, which they consider an excellent overall vehicle that was completely restored, or an original vehicle showing very minimal wear. Note: This value does not represent a 100 point show car or a #1 vehicle. Those vehicles can reach much higher prices. $36,225 in average condition, which they consider in good overall condition that could be an older restoration or a well maintained original vehicle that is completely operable. The exterior paint, trim, and mechanics are presentable and serviceable inside and out. They say an average condition car is considered a 20-Footer! They have the lowest condition valued at $10,867 for a car needing pretty much everything. Numbers don't lie! I believe this Gran Turismo Omolgato is in much better condition than what Nada considers average. I also believe everywhere this goat is driven it will be a spectacle, and the pride of the neighborhood. This Pontiac is an investment that will continue to rise as these cars have proven to consistently escalate in value. This car is for the guy or girl that always wanted one back in high school, or maybe wants to show off at their high school reunion to prove how cool they still are. Isn't it time to treat yourself to the Wonderful World of the Widetrack of Pontiac?? I try to list everything I can think of when I write a description, so every potential bidder can make the most informed decision prior to placing their bid. If you feel I may have left anything out please ask as many questions as you like. I pride myself in answering every question in explicit detail with the utmost honesty. This Classic GTO is being offered on a quick 3-day auction at "No Reserve" and will have a new home on Sunday evening at 5:00pm Pacific, 7:00pm Central, or 8:00pm Eastern time depending on your location. This just may be the dream car you've been searching for. Thank You for taking the time to view my auction!!! Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

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.

The last Pontiac Fiero sold for $90,000 at auction

Thu, Dec 3 2020

On August 16, 1988 the last Pontiac Fiero, a red GT model, rolled off the assembly line at GM's Pontiac Assembly plant located in Pontiac, Michigan. It wasn't just the final Fiero, but the final car to be built at that site. The car was raffled off to one of 1,400 plant employees that would soon have to find jobs elsewhere. Whoever that employee was, they remained faithful to the Fiero and kept it in mint condition for 32 years. Last month, it was finally time to move on. It crossed the block at GAA Auctions in Greensboro, North Carolina where it sold for an astounding $90,000. According to the auction house, that's a new world record. The price no doubt reflected the car's place in history as the last example of GM's 1980s mid-engined sports car. However, it was also showroom-new, with just 582 miles clocked on its 2.8-liter V6. 1988 models were also fitted with an upgraded, Lotus-esque suspension produced for just that one year. In addition, this car, serial number 226402, came with its original build sheet, photos from the assembly line, and a collection of news articles and books. It still wore its pre-delivery plastic on the interior and was fully loaded with automatic transmission. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. The car's custodian for the past 32 years must be pleased. Bidding started at $25,000 but soon rocketed past the $65,000 reserve. You can see the action starting at the 2:50:13 mark in the video above. The Fiero was symbolic of the 1980s and stood out from the standard GM passenger car fare for its mid-engine layout and plastic body panels. In an era when GM often rebadged cars with minimal differences, the Fiero rode on its own unique chassis. It was positioned as one of the defining products for Pontiac, GM's "excitement" brand, but actual performance never quite lived up to its striking looks.Â Nevertheless, it garnered a cult following. It's often the basis for (questionable) custom builds mimicking more exotic models like Ferraris and Lamborghinis, thanks to a steel space-frame design that allows body panels to be easily removed. Thankfully, this significant example escaped such a fate and will live on as a reminder of an interesting chapter of automotive history.
