1970 Pontiac Gto on 2040-cars
Pendergrass, Georgia, United States
|
1970 Pontiac GTO, California Survivor, numbers matching. Original 400 with 350 horse power. Original owners manual and California Pink Slip included. Factory 10 bolt rear end. Car has factory air, power steering, power brakes, automatic, am radio. I put on a period correct Rochester carb. The factory original carb is in a box in the trunk, which is included in the sale to the future owner. Engine bay is very well maintained and looks great. Car drives well and has plenty of power. Tires are full of tread and wheels are in beautiful condition. The Enduro bumper is in excellent condition. Interior is fresh, clean, no tears, rips. Front and back seats have all original factory seat belts in car. Front seats have two factory belt buckles, one for the shoulder strap and one for the lap belt. Headliner is in very good condition with no rips or tears. Trunk is in excellent shape with no rust issues and includes the factory bumper jack and the original small tire which has never been used. Inside of the trunk looks great! Interior and exterior are in very good condition for a 44 year old car. The car has factory glass throughout, original T3 headlights, factory paint still in door jams, trunk and inside engine bay. Somewhere along the way the master cylinder was replaced. Undercarriage is solid and in good condition. Car had one light re-spray years prior to me purchasing it. This is as rust free as you will find. When I purchased the car in 08, I was told that the car has some lead bleeding through the right and left seams where the quarter panels join the roof. It can be seen. I will include a picture. It has NOT gotten worse since 2008. Also, this car has the original metal dealer drive out tag. Roc Cutri was the GMC dealer where the car was purchased in 1970. Roc Cutri GMC has long since closed, but you can still see their dealership history on the internet. The downside to this car is the dash. California heat split the top left in two places and one place almost in the middle. I will include pictures of the cracks. I intended to send the dash out to be restored, but it never took top priority. I had to leave something left to do. What fun are they, if there's nothing left to work on? That's my opinion. I keep it in a dehumidified garage. The collector before me also kept this car in a dehumidified garage. It is one of a few original survivors. Some like a restored car, but this car hasn't been restored. This car is like it came off the lot. You can restore cars as many times as you want, but they're only original once. This car is for the person that still wants an original and they want to do a few minor things for a hobby, while enjoying a beautiful, stock 70 California, GTO. I have the original California Pink slip for this car which will be included in the sale. Also, this is a rare 1970 California emission equipped car with the original California emissions canister. Based on one Pontiac guru, this canister is a rare piece and not reproduced. He said the first thing people did when they bought a California GTO with the canister was to trash it. Now they're extremely expensive and hard to find for a 1970 California GTO, which he said makes for a more rare GTO. Hagerty magazine did an article regarding California muscle cars and discussed the cost and rarity of these 1970 canisters. The Pontiac legend, Jim Wangers took a short drive in my car at the 2008 Year One Experience. After driving and checking out this GTO, Mr. Wangers wrote the following on the car's radiator cover. "Hey Bud... Hang on to this beautiful 70, it's a "Real Survivor"! signed, Jim Wangers08. Mr. Wangers also pointed out factory chalk marks on the fire wall. If you look you can still see the mark. I will include pictures of what Mr. Wangers wrote and a picture of him sitting in the driver's seat. I'm going to try to post a video on YouTube so people can hear and see the car running. It runs great and cranks perfect every time. I changed the oil with Mobil 1 and added a bottle of Z-Max to the motor. I've been long winded, but I've done my best to honestly describe my GTO. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding. Please keep in mind this is a 44 year old car and it comes with no warranties. Write or call me with any questions you have and I will respond quickly. I'll be happy to show it to any serious buyers or agents. Bud 706-983-0357 Shipping is the buyer's responsibility. $500 deposit within 48 hours. Full payment expected in 7 days after auction ends. Funds must clear before I will release the car and pink slip. I will provide the winning bidder with a bill of sale and the pink slip, which is the title in California. Thanks!

GM Design shows what could have been and what might be
Thu, May 27 2021We periodically like to check in with GM Design's Instagram account to see what they're cooking up. Even better is when we catch a glimpse of an alternate history of what legendary designers from The General's past were thinking, though those ideas may not have made it into production. This week, for example, the account posted some illustrations from George Camp, whose career at GM spanned nearly four decades, from 1963 to 2001. One of the renderings is of what appears to be a 1971-72 Pontiac GTO Judge, but with two headlights instead of the production unit's quad beams. The rear departs from the canonical version most dramatically, with a massive integrated wing. Other bits that didn't make the production cut include large side vents, a gill-like side marker and rectangular intakes below the headlights that wouldn't be out of place on a modern design today. Amazingly, from what we can make out of the date, it appears that the drawing was done sometime in 1965, which makes it quite prescient. View this post on Instagram A post shared by GM Design (@generalmotorsdesign) There's also a very aerodynamic interpretation of a Corvette ZR-1. To our eyes it splits the difference between the 1986 Corvette Indy concept and a fourth-generation F-body Pontiac Firebird, so perhaps parts of Camp's work on this sketch did make it into physical form. There's also a radical sports car concept from May 1970 that resembles the Mazda RX-500 concept from the same year, a Syd Mead-looking Cadillac coupe, and an Oldsmobile with a cool take on the company's trademark waterfall grille and elements of the Colonnade Cutlass at the rear. Other recent posts include a FJ Cruiser-like off-road EV, a sleek coupe with the Chevy corporate grille, and a rendering of a Silverado-esque pickup that looks far better than the current production version.

2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern
Mon, 07 Nov 2011General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.
Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
