Too Much to List - 100K+ Plus Spent

Many of our photos of this American Musclecar were taken at the Dallas Love Field Frontiers of Flight Museum, located only minutes from our showroom. You can fly high or fly low in this menacing Pontiac GTO.

This transformed GTO began life as a true 242 GTO in the Atoll Blue color, matching interior, and a black cordova top as is indicated on the identa-plate. It was built in 1969 and delivered to Coast Pontiac in December, 1969. In the intervening years, it saw Bakersfield, Chatsworth, and Almeda, California. In the mid 2000, the car spent some time in Arizona before arriving it Texas where it was purchased by its current owner in 2007 Sometime in this journey, the grand old Goat was changed to a Cardinal Red & Judge graphics added. This was a clean, rust free, and numbers-matching survivor.

The current owner had a different vision for the car. He set about to make it one of kind with supreme drivability, while maintaining the classic '70 GTO look. He also wanted to maintain the number's viability of the car. The original matching number 400 c.i. engine was removed and put into storage, replaced with a professionally built 1970 455 big block you will read about soon. This engine goes with the car. The car was lifted off the frame and the work began.

The exterior paint and trim was done by Picasso's of Ft. Worth, Texas in midnight black with one capful of respberry metal flake added per quart. Following this was 4 coats of clear. The paint is stunning in sunlight and under display lights at car shows. The body itself was excellent prior to the paint and body work. This has always been a dry climate GTO.

Handling prowess is greatly improved thanks to extensive suspension modifications. The entire suspension was removed and replaced with a heavy duty Hotchkis TVS tubular suspension. In addition, a close-ratio power steering box was added to tighten up control to the steering wheel. The wheels of choice are polished Ansen Sport wheels sized at 235/60R15 up front and 255/70R17 out back, wrapped in classic B.F. Goodrich Radial T/As.

The engine compartment is a jewelry box with a big ole' 455 jewel.

This powerplant was machined, align-honed, balanced and blueprinted during the build. It was bored at .060 over and fitted with JE pistons. The cam of choice is a COMP CAMS 51-223-4 complete with all recommended parts. The cylinder headers were rebuilt and hardened valve, guides, etc. were installed. A March Serpentine Belt system has been installed to connect all of the chromed components, along with many more unique features. To enhance the look under the hood, the firewall was blanked and the old style air conditioning compressor was replaced with a polished gen 3 unit from Cool Air of Ft. Worth, Texas. The controls for the A/C were adapted to tie to the original Pontiac levers and switches. The alternator, power steering pump resevoir, and water pump are chromed. The hoses were replaced with stainless steel braided units. All brake, fuel, and other fluid lines are stainless or chromed and meticulously attached to the frame to ensure they stay in place. Also, the battery was re-located to the trunk and a there is a hidden master kill switch. An MSD 6AL provides the spark duties. Induction is courtesy of a Demon 650 carburetor atop an aluminum Edelbrock intake. Custom ceramic-coated headers flow through a custom dual exhaust system.

There is a lot of detail throughout this GTO.

This engine shows very well and the car performs the same. The transmission of choice is a built TH400 automatic with hardened components to handle the increased horsepower and toque. To further increase driveability and performance, a Gear Vendor, model 3D400, 750 horsepower over/underdrive was added. This is a very special item. When engaged, the underdrive fucntion turns the Mosier 342 Truetrac (33-spline) into a 451. Equally amazing is the fact that when the overdrive function is engaged at 75 to 80mph, the RPM's drop from approximately 3,750 to 1,900. This lets you cruise down the highway at about 75mph and still get 14 miles per gallon. Should you decide to pass, hit the discreetly located spitter swtich on the floor next to the headlight dimmer. From the transmission to the rear end is an extra heavy duty drive shaft specially fabricated to accommodate the Gear Vendor apparatus. Again, the owner retained the original matching numbers transmission that will be included.

The undercarriage displays Hotchkis TVS Tubular Sport Suspension along with the built transmission, rear end, replaced lines, bushings, and detailed/coated frame and underbody. This car is quality built and it shows.

Open the doors to high performance & classic looks.

The interior has been restored in Pontiac 254 red, all padding and materials replaced. the combination of the red interior, black paint and judge graphics is striking to say the least. Before any of this was done, the car was fitted with Dynamat Extreme insulation throughout every piece of metal in the cabin except the firewall.

Since completion, the car has been entered in one show, the Dallas, Texas 2010 Muscle on Muscle event, where it took Best of Show.

This is a beautiful interior. The bucket seating is paired with a factory center console. The dash displays the correct gauges along with part of the extensive sound system, the Alpine CDA head unit tucked in the glove box. Before this car was painted and re-worked, extreme steps were taken to ensure the sound system would be fully enjoyed.

Six custom Apline SPX 17Pro speakers have been retro-fitted throughou the cabin for the ultimate in audio experience. This speakers are driven by a pair of PDX 600Watt amplifiers. There is an Alpine SWX-1043D subwoofer as well driven by its own PDX Amplifier. All of this is controlled by a wireless controller.

This is your opportunity to own a true street performer and show circuit winner. Enjoy the remaining photos and again feel free to contact Dave at 214-213-7072 or Maris at 214-616-2317 with any questions.

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am

Wed, 15 May 2013

When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.

Why Pontiac should come back and how it can be relevant again

Mon, Apr 17 2017

When I was a kid growing up in Metro Detroit, our family was always entwined in the General Motors empire. My dad and some of our relatives worked for GM in various capacities, and we had our fair share of Chevrolet, GMC, and even Buick products in our humble driveway. However, it was my Uncle Ed that always had a vehicle from the one GM brand that always appealed to me the most: Pontiac. Seeing him pull up in his Pontiac 6000 and later the '90s era Grand Prix sedan that replaced it was always an exciting occasion, and both of these models also reflected the playful spirit that once defined the Pontiac brand. Back when Pontiac first got its performance groove on in the '60s, names such as GTO, Firebird, as well as Bonneville became iconic nameplates in the broader muscle car era. The '80s saw Pontiac lose some of its styling heritage, but also try new things at the same time including turbocharging as well as the mid-engine sports car with the flawed but still sleek Pontiac Fiero. When the Pontiac brand was shuttered in 2009, it was a mere few years after I earned my drivers license, and also when Pontiac was just beginning to regain some of its lost luster. Granted cookie cutter efforts like the Pontiac G3, (Chevrolet Aveo) G5, (Chevrolet Cobalt) and G6 (Chevrolet Malibu) certainly did not help matters during Pontiac's final years on the market, but two models in particular offered a compelling glimpse into what could've been for the storied brand. The first was the Pontiac Solstice roadster/coupe. Originally introduced as a concept back in 2004, and championed by everyone's fighter jet flying auto executive Bob Lutz, the Solstice was designed to be a serious competitor to the Mazda Miata, and while its interior ergonomics were flawed and the top solution not ideal. It proved to be a fun little car to drive, and also a sales success for Pontiac with initial demand exceeding expectations.This was especially due to its lineup of engines with the 2.0 liter LHU turbocharged four-cylinder engine delivering 260 horsepower in GXP variants. The second and (inarguably my favorite Pontiac model) was the Pontiac G8 sedan. Originating in Australia as the Holden Commodore VE, the G8 was designed to rectify the multitude of sins created by the last generation Bonneville. Front wheel drive was pitched in favor of rear wheel drive, and for the first time in a long time interior ergonomics and cladding free exterior styling were key building blocks for success.

2.1 million vehicles recalled again over faulty airbags

Sat, Jan 31 2015

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Honda and Toyota will recall 2.1 million vehicles to fix faulty airbag modules "after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles." These vehicles had all previously been recalled, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that the airbags could still potentially malfunction. This recall will cover Acura MDX, Dodge Viper, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Honda Odyssey, Pontiac Vibe, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Matrix and Toyota Avalon models made in the early 2000s. NHTSA has reportedly received about 40 reports of airbag deployment in such vehicles, even though the vehicle had not been involved in a crash. Roughly one million of these same vehicles, all from Honda and Toyota, are also subject to recalls due to faulty Takata airbag modules, though this particular recall is for "an electronic component manufactured by TRW" that is separate from the actual airbags from Takata. According to NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind: "This is unfortunately a complicated issue for consumers, who may have to return to their dealer more than once. But this is an urgent safety issue, and all consumers with vehicles covered by the previous recalls should have that remedy installed. Even though it's a temporary solution until the new remedy is available, they and their families will be safer if they take the time to learn if their vehicle is covered and follow their manufacturers' instructions. A hassle is much better than a family tragedy." If you're the owner of an affected car, expect to hear more from the official automaker and government channels in short order. In the meantime, we'd suggest getting your car checked and fixed at your local dealer. The official statement and recall information can be found below. Previously Recalled Vehicle Remedies Not Working as Designed; NHTSA Announces Follow up Recall of 2.12 Million Cars and SUVs Saturday, January 31, 2015 Contact: Gordon Trowbridge, 202-366-9550, Public.Affairs@dot.gov WASHINGTON – U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx announced today the recall of more than 2.12 million Acura, Dodge, Jeep, Honda, Pontiac, and Toyota vehicles for a defect that may cause airbags to deploy inadvertently. The recalls will provide vehicle owners with a new remedy after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles.
