Here we have the ultimate project, a 1970 Pontiac Bonneville convertible with the matching numbers drivetrain and thousands of dollars in NOS parts(see list below and pictures) as well used parts(see pictures).This car was sold new in Boulder Colorado, but appears to have spent it's life in the Salt Lake City Utah until my purchase in 2004. Car is loaded with options including A.C.,power windows, 6-way power seat, power door locks, trunk release, tilt wheel, cruise control, rally guages, cornering lights and rally wheels and dual exhaust. Also included is a complete factory am/fm multiplex stereo with seperate tranny hump mounted 8-track player. This car is currently registered and insured and the motor and tranny are excellent with no leaks, one brake line needs to be replaced. I purchased this car 10 years ago with the intent of fully restoring it and have spent this time scouring the internet for NOS parts as well as used parts and everything is included with the purchase of the car. Since owning the car I installed a new tinted widshield, had the brake booster restored and properly plated with new master cylinder, alternator as well as a correct date coded carberator, new distributor and reproduction date coded ignition wires. The top was replaced in 2002 and at that time the top motor and both top pistons were replaced with new, the top is still in pretty decent shape with the proper glass rear window. I also have the correct NOS vinyl upholstery with enough yardage to do both the front and rear seats purchased from Original Auto Interiors. What the car really needs is bodywork and paint. I removed most of the interior and exterior moldings so you can see what really needs to be done. The car has the usual rust in the rear quarters and some minor floor rust, but the frame is excellent as well as the doors and rockers and even the the trunk floor, included with the auction are lower quarter panel repair panels for both sides.

Junkyard Gem: 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix Daytona 500 Edition

Tue, Aug 29 2017

The W Platform proved to be extremely long-lived and versatile for General Motors, remaining in production from 1988 all the way through 2016. You had your Impalas and your Regals and your Cutlass Supremes, and of course the 1988-2008 Pontiac Grand Prix was a W-body. For the 2000 model year, Pontiac made the racy-looking Daytona 500 Edition Grand Prix, an example of which I just found in a Northern California self-service wrecking yard. 2,000 of these cars were made, presumably because it was the year 2000, and each one sports plenty of cool-looking Daytona 500 graphics. Perhaps some Regal owner will buy these seats and swap them. This is the second junked Daytona 500 Grand Prix I have seen recently, after this one in Colorado. The Daytona 500 was about the same as the GTP version, with Eaton-supercharged 3800 engine making a respectable 240 horsepower. Disappointingly, this car has an automatic transmission. It never saw 150,000 miles, unlike most 21st-century W-bodies I see in wrecking yards. Featured Gallery Junked 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix Daytona 500 Edition View 21 Photos Auto News Pontiac Sedan

This 93-car Iowa auction is like a Big 3 classic muscle museum

Tue, Aug 27 2019

Bill "Coyote" Johnson has been buying cars since high school and has amassed a collection totaling 113 vehicles, according to NBC 6 News. But time has changed his motivations and priorities, and he's decided to auction 93 of those cars, many of which are classic muscle from Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, Plymouth and Pontiac. The megasale will take place Sept. 14, 2019, in Red Oak, Iowa, at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds. A 1969 Plymouth Road Runner infected Coyote with a love for Detroit muscle when he was just a teenager, and his desire quickly turned into an obsession. He's spent the past 40 years finding, buying and working on a variety of makes and models. Unlike some collectors, Coyote didn't discriminate against certain brands and has rides from each of the Big 3 automakers. Included in the auction are Camaros, Satellites, Super Bees, Chargers, Challengers, Barracudas, Coronets, GTOs, Mustangs, Cutlasses and others. Possibly the most intriguing aspect of the auction is that all of these cars will be sold as-is with no reserve. Many of them will need work, depending on quality standards, but this seems like a golden opportunity to find a classic car without leaving a bank account in shambles.  The auctions are open for bidding online now, and the full auction will take place on September 14. Check out the full listings and bid at VanDerBrink Auctions.

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.
