Here is a chance to buy a great, original classic.  This 1966 Pontiac Lemans was purchased new in Honolulu, Hawaii, where its owner was stationed in the Navy.  From there, it went to a few different states on the mainland, ending up in Florida.  The original owner kept it until their exterminator bought it from them.  He told me he had it almost 10 years when I bought it from him.  It's pretty much original, except for one repaint.  The interior is 100% original !  Original seats, seat belts, steering wheel, carpet, headliner, door panels, dash, radio, visors, rear package tray...even the original keys!  Other than a hole the diameter of your little finger, the headliner is excellent.  The package tray needs replaced from sun damage, the radio turns on but doesn't make any noise, and all but the right rear power windows still work.  I never looked to see if it was the switch or the motor, but assume the worst and you won't be disappointed.  The factory power antenna still works.  It has all of it's original glass. It looks like all of it's original body panels. 

The car comes with all 5 of its original Rally 1 wheels.  I have 4 trim rings and center caps, but three of them don't want to stay on.  The original jack and hardware is in the trunk. The original owners manual and folder from Kapiolani Motors is still in the glove compartment, as is the original tire pressure decal.  I love stuff like that !

The car runs and drives incredibly.  It starts with one pump of the gas, idles immediately, and it accelerates smoothly.  The power steering is amazing in these old cars.  The power brakes work well, and the power booster was replaced earlier this year.  They stop the car effortlessly, but if you hit them really hard, they will pull a bit.  I'm sure its just an adjustment. For normal driving, they're great.  The headlight and taillights work, along with the brake lights and back up lights.  The horn and wipers work also.  You can fly in and drive this home without fear.  The engine has never been apart, and has only received normal maintenance items.  Water pump, hoses, tune up items, etc. were obviously changed, but the engine was never painted up, no aftermarket goodies added...just normal wear and tear items to keep it running well.  88,000 actual, original miles, and you'd never know it.

The 326 engine is quiet and powerful.  No crazy dual exhaust, no aftermarket intakes or carbs, just a great, original looking and running V-8.  The automatic transmission shifts like a new car.  Instant engagement, smooth and quiet operation, all operated through the factory console mounted shifter. 

 It's a time capsule waiting to be freshened up for its new owner.  If you wanted to make a GTO clone, it would be a great candidate. 

 It does have a few spots here and there, s you can see in the photos, but much less than the average I've seen in GTOs and other cars of that era. The trunk was patched with a thick piece of steel, and though rusty looking, you can stand on it.  It's very solid.

My description of this car is what you will say when you see it.  It's not a show car, and it's not a restored cruiser.  It's not a barn find since it was always registered.  It's a lightly used, well maintained classic Pontiac with the similiar good looks of the famous GTO, and could be someone's daily driver just as it sits.  It's an affordable antique that can be driven home and enjoyed, all while you fix up what you want. 

YOU CAN OWN THIS CAR FOR $10,900.  If you want to wait the auction out, the reserve price is a little bit lower than that.  If you don't want to wait, don't.  If you do, good luck...it just might save you some money.

Email me at northshorebill@aol.com, text or call me at 941-740-22seven seven, or contact me through ebay.  Don't hesitate if you want it.  No dreamers or time wasters, PLEASE.  It's a great car looking for a new home.

AMC Trans Am Javelin SST, an ultra-rare underdog, is up for auction

Sat, Sep 9 2023

Among the rarest of the American muscle cars that went racing in the early Seventies — cars including the Camaro Z/28 and the Boss 302 Mustang — the 1970 AMC Trans Am Javelin SST may be the most hard to find, and among the most valuable. Only 100 units of this unique Javelin were produced, and one of them is up for auction at the Mecum event in Dallas on September 20. The Trans Am Javelin was fashioned in a patriotic livery of tricolor paint — red, white and blue — and arrived after the American Motors Corporation had decided in 1968 to compete in the Trans Am racing series against Ford and General Motors. The company's chief driver, Mark Donohue, would dominate the 1971 season, taking seven wins in his Javelin AMX and that yearÂ’s SCCA Trans-Am Championship. AMC took the trophy with 82 points, well ahead of Ford's 61, Chevrolet's 17 and Pontiac's paltry 7. The example listed for auction came equipped with a 390-cubic-inch V-8 engine with 325 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 420 pound-feet of torque, power steering and brakes, dual exhaust, BorgWarner four-speed manual transmission and Hurst competition shifter. Its “ram induction system” sealed a chamber around the air filter so that cool air from the functional hood scoop would be funneled into the intake. This JavÂ’s factory price was $3,995 — a mere $32,000 or so in today's money, though it was expensive by the standards of the time. The 100 Trans Ams were among 19,714 Javelin units built in 1970, so they started out rare, and today the surviving examples are highly collectible, if and when they come up for sale.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes

Thu, 10 May 2012

When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
