1965 Pontiac Grand Prix on 2040-cars
Tacoma, Washington, United States
Obviously NOT a restoration vehicle! NO TITLE. This is a parts car 1965 Grand Prix. The car was once used as a demo for a car accessory installation company 15 years ago. It was decked out with the latest stereo and accessory equipment available at the time. It also had a built 389 and 18" wheels. But slowly, as the car sat,parts have been removed and this is what is left...The main interest is the frame. The frame is in excellent condition.And, its a fully boxed frame from the factory so it can be used on convertible Catalinas and 2+2's..No damage and just minimal surface rust. The car also has Air-Ride airbags installed front and rear and matched rear Air Ride extendable shocks in the rear only. Also a panhard rod. The front has GM truck spindles and disc brake rotors, but no calipers. It has a quick ratio steering box and upgraded tie rods. keep in mind these are 15 years old, but car saw very little road use. Other good parts are the doors. Theyre both very nice but the key lock holes are filled. I think it's just bondo'd over. No rust on the door frames that I can see, Doors had opener solenoids and so the outer handles don't do anything. Rockers good, window channels good, cowl area okay, some rust but not all rusted out. Car also comes with the nice, non tilt steering column and cool Grant Steering wheel. There is no air tank or pump for the airbags, but the valves and airlines are present. The frame can be put back to stock suspension easily, but youll need to cut out the rear upper spring pockets and weld them to this frame as they've been altered. There is also very mior cuts from the frame for the front bags, but it's not structural or visible. The left fend is decent, the quarter panels aren't that bad but areas have been cut out. Also, the entire area below the rear window is gone, As I said, it's for PARTS. No title, but VIN and trim tag present. Also, car comes with the trim between the taillights and its pretty nice. The radiator support is bad. Also included but not pictured are the front and rear bumpers and their brackets. The front is pushed in a little in the nose, the rear bumper is very straight. WHOOPS!, the last pic is of a 66 gauge bezel and DOES NOT go with car as I sold the bezel. Was unable to delete that pic, sorry!! The car had 2 batteries in the trunk..The cables are still there and in good shape The car is sold with everything and only whats in the pics. I have no other parts for the car other that mentioned above. If the buyer wants only certain parts, I can remove and ship them but prefer to have buyer take everything Just to say again, this is a PARTS CAR with NO TITLE. It's mainly the frame and airbag parts! NO RESERVE. If car doesn't sell, it gets crushed as is. Buyer pays shipping. I will assist. Car rolls fine and will steer |

'67 Chevy Corvair convertible vs. '86 Pontiac Fiero in cult classic showdown
Fri, 22 Aug 2014Every few a decades, the folks running General Motors lose their minds briefly try to market a car that public doesn't see coming and often aren't ready for. In the '60s there was the rear-engine, air-cooled Chevrolet Corvair, then the mid-engine Pontiac Fiero in the '80s and the completely bizarre Chevy SSR in the 2000s. What all of these had in common was that they bucked the trend for American models of their era, for better or worse. The latest episode of Generation Gap tasked the hosts with finding two cult classic vehicles to choose between; they came come up with two of these quirky products from The General.
On the classic side, there's a 1967 Chevy Corvair Monza convertible. Being from later in the production run, it wears slightly more aerodynamic styling than the earlier, boxier examples. Hanging out back is an air-cooled, 2.7-liter flat-six pumping out a robust 95 horsepower. In the other corner is the somewhat more modern 1986 Pontiac Fiero SE with a mid-mounted, 2.5-liter "Iron Duke" four-cylinder, an engine nearly ubiquitous in GM cars of the '80s.
Judging by when they were new, the Corvair was far more successful than the Fiero with over 1.8 million sold. Of course, Ralph Nader's book Unsafe at Any Speed kind of poisoned the well, even if the poor safety reputation wasn't entirely deserved. The Fiero on the other hand only lasted for a few model years before shuffling off, but it eventually got its own performance boost with the V6 version and rather attractive GT models. Check them both out in the video and tell us in Comments which you want in your garage.
Online Find: 1970 Pontiac Firebird Concept, cousin of the Weinermobile
Thu, Mar 26 2015So there's this for sale over at Hemmings: the 1970 Pontiac Firebird One concept designed by Harry Bentley Bradley and built by Dave Crook. For sale at the time of writing in Bellevue, Washington for $94,950, most of the seller's description appears to be pulled from a 2001 Barrett-Jackson listing, when the car was sold at auction for $61,600. Before we get to the car, it helps to know the man behind it: Bradley was a designer at General Motors from 1962 to 1966 who, against company policy, continued to submit designs to Hot Rod magazine under an assumed name. Mattel poached him in 1966 to design its brand new toy line called Hot Wheels, and Bradley designed all of them except one. He only stayed at Mattel for a year because he didn't think Hot Wheels would be successful, then left to start his own design company. Among other works, he penned the most recent example of the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile. Now can you see the Firebird One's design language? Since it apparently has a letter of documentation from GM design staff, we'll assume that GM asked the then-freelancing Bradley to work some magic on its muscle car, this being the totally Hot-Wheels influenced result. There are 17,456 miles on its 255-horsepower, 350 cubic-inch V8. The interior has tan leather, custom bucket seats, a wood grain dash, and one of the most awkward spare tire placements ever. The seller assures all prospective buyers that it is, like the Death Star, "fully operational."
GM replacing passenger airbags in over 243,000 Pontiac Vibes
Sat, Jun 20 2015General Motors is repairing over 243,000 additional examples of the 2003-2007 Pontiac Vibe in the US and Canada to replace their Takata-supplied passenger-side airbag inflators. The company has no reports of irregular deployments in the models, though. These aren't actually newly included vehicles in the massive safety campaign. As a twin to the Toyota Matrix, the Vibe was already included in Toyota's figures, but as Pontiac-branded vehicles, GM dealers are taking care of these replacements. They have been covered as part of the Takata campaign in the past. Toyota expanded its own Takata recall to passenger-side components for 1.365 million vehicles on June 16. Earlier, General Motors also issued a campaign for 330,198 examples of the 2007 and 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD, 3500HD, GMC Sierra 2500HD, and 3500HD pickups to replace their passenger-side parts. After exposure to moisture, it's possible for these inflators to ignite too quickly in an accident and spray shrapnel at occupants. GM Statement The Vibes are included in two Toyota recall campaigns - one for high absolute humidity (HAH) areas and one for non-HAH areas. Both are considered national recalls even though only vehicles in certain HAH states and territories are in the recall. Total Pontiac Vibe passenger air bag numbers for MY 2003-2007 (U.S. and Canada only): High Absolute Humidity 89,719 Non High Absolute Humidity areas 252,685 These are the totals, which include about 99,000 previously recalled. GM knows of no field issues - irregular deployments - with these air bag inflators.
