G.T.O.........simply stands for performance.  and this 1970 pontiac has it in spades.  right from the peak of the muscle car era.........from the manufacturer which started it all.  this beautiful 1970 pontiac gto tribute, is as nice as they come.  recent professional, high quality two stage clearcoat, colorsanded and polished paint, in the original light blue metallic.  the interior is also a pleasing period light blue metallic, featuring bucket seats and a real wood console, sporting a b&m floor shifter, with lock-out. always a california car with original unmolested floors and trunk pans. 

the previous owner loved this car, and it shows.  it was almost no expense spared when it came to the mechanicals on this car.  pontiac's potent 350, warmed up with hi-compression heads (prior owner stated the heads are some special rare heads that cost about half of what the car does............i don't know..........and i'm not checking numbers..............all i know is that this car runs GREAT).  special cam, roller rockers, eldelbrock intake and 4bbl carb, polished aluminum rocker covers, chrome air cleaner, msd ignition, large diameter plug wires, large free flow headers into flowmaster exhausts and split rear quad pipes.  .........sounds great too.  constantly getting comments about appearance and sound.  the red line tires are a big favourite, since few people see them any more, they generate a lot of admiration.  the rallye wheels and bf goodrich redlines are almost new, with probably less than 1500 miles on them.  the body is very straight, and there are no signs of rust on the car.  the rest of the driveline is a jewel as well.  th 400 trans built with 2500 rpm stall converter and shift kit.  the rear end is an auburn posi unit.........so this baby not only looks the part...............it can lay it down too.  i've owned many muscle cars...........and i can easily say this is the best driving one i've ever owned.  many are sloppy, ill handling, tempramental tin cans ................but not this one.  this is my pick as a daily driver whenever i can.  but i have other projects............and i'm looking for more, so trades are also interesting to me.  front bucket seats are freshly reupolstered, new carpets, dash cap, and polished trim.  new door gto badges.  loaded with tilt wheel (which is a big thing for me in making the car much easier to get in and out of), read defog option, power brakes and steering.  the car originally had a/c which is not currently hooked up.  bilstein shocks combined with the bfg redline radials, make this car ride wonderful. pioneer bluetooth, hands free cd / mp3 player, so you can talk while you enjoy the road in safety.  i've purposely not detailed under the car, so you can see what it really looks like underneath, and bid with confidence.  a gto, better than the real thing.  much new rubber.  the car needs are few, but i don't want to give the impression this is a concours show car.............cause it is not.  it is a quality driver, a used car.......meant to drive, so please don't expect more, and bid accordingly.  ready for virtually any show and shine car show you can throw at it.

Pontiac should come back as a performance division for GM

Thu, Apr 6 2017

For decades the Pontiac brand was known as GM's performance brand. From the 1964 Pontiac GTO, to the 1967 Firebird, to the 1984 Fiero, to the 2006 Solstice Turbo, and 2009 G8 GXP, Pontiac had a reputation for building exciting cars, with bold styling and performance to back it up. When the Camaro was killed off in 2002, the Pontiac Firebird died off with it, and the last Pontiacs were built in early 2010. But with names like G3, G4, and G6, Pontiac's performance image had long faded from it's earlier glory days. My idea for Pontiac's revival would be to bring it back as a dedicated performance marque similar to Chevy's Super Sport (SS) line up of years past. First, and most obvious would be to bring back the Pontiac Firebird. Offering the entry-level model with the Camaro's 275HP turbo 4 cylinder engine, then having the Camaro SS's 455HP V8, but also offering a halo model Trans Am that is a revamped Camaro ZL-1 along with it's tire-shredding 650HP, supercharged V8 and race tuned suspension. Secondly, I would bring back the GTO. Which I would base on the current Chevy SS, but I would use the full 455-horsepower LS4 V8 (rather than the 415-hp setup that it has now). Furthermore, I would add the impressive 650-hp supercharged V8 to provide real competition to the Charger Hellcat. Importantly, I would make sure that the new GTO had bold, distinctive styling that really set it apart. I understand that purists would want any Pontiac GTO to be a two-door coupe, but I think that they could forgive that if the new GTO was an outstanding American performance car. Next, I would take the Buick Cascada convertible, add much bolder styling, swap in the Camaro's 275-hp turbo engine, and tune up the suspension to provide more performance than luxury (without being harsh). And finally I would round out the line up by using the new 2018 Traverse , but use the new, bold Pontiac design language to spice up the model's looks, tweak the engines for more power, and again provide a performance suspension that matches the model's new sporty looks. Obviously, having a high performance Pontiac model line up would steal away some sales from Chevy, Buick, and Cadillac models. But I think that it would more than make up for this by also stealing away sales from competing brands.

1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction

Mon, 01 Aug 2011

For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.

Classic Pontiac Trans Am Firebird Super Duty 455 sells for nearly $90,000

Fri, Aug 25 2023

Historically, the Pontiac Firebird Trans Am raised the performance levels a notch or two over a plain Firebird in the muscle car hierarchy of the Sixties. But the Super Duty 455 version of the Trans Am — that number represents the cubic inches of the hand-assembled V8 engine — moved the performance needle big time in 1974. So much so that a clean example of the machine sold recently on the Hagerty Marketplace auction site for $89,296. Advertised with just under 54,000 miles on the clock and having undergone a thorough restoration, the Buccaneer Red model was one of just 943 Pontiac Firebirds equipped with the Super Duty 455 package for the 1974 model year. That build had also been offered in 1973. The Hagerty listing drew more than 21,000 views and 39 bids. According to Hagerty's valuation report, a similar car would be worth $85,700 in good condition, and $103,000 if it was in ‘“concours condition.” The Super Duty motor borrowed technology from the lineÂ’s 366-cubic-inch NASCAR engine, and featured heavy-duty connecting rods and an entirely new block with a revised crankshaft and heads to deliver a claimed 310 horsepower. The Firebird that sold was indeed loaded, with a three-speed Hydra-matic transmission (which surely reduced its overall value), power locks and windows, AC, dual exhausts, heavy duty stabilizer bars all around, and a “custom Interior trimmed in Red perforated Morrokide vinyl upholstery.” The entry of PontiacÂ’s pony car in the U.S., facing off against the Mustang and Camaro, dates back to 1967, when it was offered with an inline six and optional V8. The first Trans Ams were introduced two years later, the name derived from a handling package. General Motors ceased production of new Pontiacs in 2002 owing to declining sales and losing stakes in the sports coupe market. The big 455-cid V-8 had disappeared years earlier.
