You are bidding on a Custom and Rather Rare, Nicely Optioned 1964 Pontiac Catalina Ventura. There weren’t many of this model produced to begin with and the survivors are few and far between. This car has, over the past several years, gone through a FULL RESTORATION that was completed this past spring. This eye catching Base Coat/Clear Coat Reverse Scallop Teal Green over Sunlit Sand Pearl Silver paint scheme and Interior was chosen to respectfully pay tribute to the Custom Street Rods and Low Riders of yesteryear yet still retain some of its classic original features. The chassis has been lowered two (2) inches in the front giving this car a very aggressive stance. This car was undercoated from the factory and still retains most of that original undercoating. The underside of the car has been cleaned and re-undercoated and the frame repainted in flat black. The entire underside of the car has been detailed and is nearly as nice as the topside. A brand new gas tank with new sending unit and pickup has been installed. The engine and automatic transmission have been completely rebuilt. The A/C system has been completely gone through, restored as needed and on a 90 degree sunny day produces a BONE CHILLING 35 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT AT THE VENTS!!!  The A/C systems of today’s cars cannot even compete!!!

Other than the paint and interior some of the other custom features of this car include the 64 Grand Prix headlight bezels, grill and parking lights as well as 64 Grand Prix rear fender extensions, backup and tail lights and rear finned chrome bezel. Red LED lights were installed in the rear finned bezel in place of the factory GP tail lights and inside the GP backup lights. Brand new backup lights were installed in the factory Catalina bumper locations. Door handles and door mounted mirrors have been shaved and Custom mini roadster mirrors have been modified and mounted on the vent window frames. Door poppers have been installed to open the doors. A remote is included for the door poppers.

KMC 17x8 Chrome Billet Venom Wheels wrapped in low profile Kumho Ecsta ASX tires were chosen to complete the LOW, SLEEK, STALKING LOOK!!!

The all new carpet is dark teal green in color and extends to the bottom of the door panels and the kick panels. The seats and door panels are reverse scalloped in silver to carry through the exterior paint scheme. The metal parts of the dash and steering column were repainted in the light aqua and shows very nicely. The chrome dash is nice with very little pitting. The padded dash top is brand new and looks very nice. The real wood dash applique is brand new reproduction as is the wood sport steering wheel. The headliner is also brand new and is done in the white star pattern. The trunk has been customized with inner side panels upholstered like the door panels and the medium green carpet. All lights and accessories work as they were intended including all factory and aftermarket gauges.

The front and rear bumper were just re-chromed and looks FANTASTIC. The exterior stainless is over-all nice for its age. All other exterior chrome is in good original condition with very little pitting.

The 1964 VENTURA was a sub-model of the Catalina line of cars and was designed to be a sporty classy version of the Catalina with the factory tri-tone interior and all of the available chrome features offered on the Catalina. This car not only has style and luxury but it performs well with a factory horse power rating of 333 HP/330ft. lbs Torque plus the additional performance upgrades noted above.

Jay Leno tries out a 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge that looks factory fresh

Tue, Jan 31 2017

The latest machine to show up on Jay Leno's Garage is arguably the most iconic Pontiac GTO, the 1970 Judge. The example here is a radically red model and features all of the nifty Judge features, such as the mega-size rear wing, hood-mounted tachometer, and ram air hood scoop. The latter of which had a panel in the hood that would open up at full throttle to let in all that cool air from outside. The car is owned by the Wade Kawasaki, president of Coker Tires, a company that specializes in reproducing classic tires. Not surprisingly, his GTO features a set of the company's Firestone Wide Oval tires. That particular tire would have come with the car originally, but these new versions are built like modern radial tires, rather than the slippery bias-ply originals. The tires are indicative of how Kawasaki restored the rest of his Judge. Everything has been taken back to factory-spec. It has a stock, 400-cubic inch V8 that makes a supposedly underrated 366 horsepower, and it's complete with the chrome valve covers and foam intake seal. The tires are accompanied by exact replica GTO Judge wheels. The car even has the true, original interior. Somehow, the upholstery, dash, and other interior components survived in excellent condition. Check out the video above for more details on this flashy muscle car, as well as some reminiscing about the "good ol' days," and some history on the origins of the car's name. Related Video:

BMX rider flips for wrecked Detroit football stadium

Fri, Jun 12 2015

Detroit is littered with derelict ruins. Abandoned automotive assembly plants, sure – but also former sports venues, like Tiger Stadium in Corktown, Roesink Stadium in Hamtramck, and the Silverdome in Pontiac. BMX rider Tyler Fernengel remembers going to see the Lions and Pistons play at the Silverdome in his youth, and competed there in Supercross as a boy. The stadium hasn't been used in years, but now, with his career just picking up, Tyler has returned to film this video – riding through its halls, jumping its stairwells and flipping over its grandstands and field. It's a fitting tribute to a once-great venue of suburban Michigan. Check out the footage in this latest clip from Red Bull.

Junkyard Gem: 1991 Pontiac 6000 LE

Sat, Dec 2 2017

Sibling to the Chevrolet Celebrity and Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, the Pontiac 6000 sold pretty well during the early-to-middle 1980s, but had been relegated to the dealership bargain bin and fleet-car cul-de-sac by the time of Operation Desert Shield. Here's a final-year-of-manufacture 6000 LE that I photographed in an Arizona self-service wrecking yard. This car was sold new in Arizona, and it will be crushed in the same state, 26 years later. The LE was the cheapest trim level for the 6000 in 1991, but the original purchaser of this car sprang for a few options. For example, instead of the utterly miserable 2.5-liter Iron Duke four-cylinder, this car packs the 3.1-liter V6. That meant 140 horsepower instead of 110, plus an engine note more like a vacuum cleaner sucking up a spaghetti spill than an ailing blender chewing on walnuts. AM, FM, and cassette. Not only that, but the auto-reverse feature meant that your mixtape cassette wouldn't stop right in the middle of your favorite Roxette tune. This content is hosted by a third party.

Even the wretched Daewoo-built Pontiac LeMans gets more screen time than the forgotten 6000 in this 1991 TV ad featuring the voice of Captain Picard.
