Virginia Tech 2001 Pontiac Grand Am Gt1 3.4l on 2040-cars
Mechanicsville, Virginia, United States
This is a carefully maintained and enhanced Virginia Tech Hokies Tailgating car. Built in 2006 starting with a stock 2001 Pontiac Grand Am GT1 3.4L vehicle, this car is completely overhauled and enhanced to perform as the ultimate tailgating vehicle and portable audio and video entertainment system.
The buyer of the vehicle must be a dedicated and diehard Virginia Tech fan and ideally a car enthusiast capable of maintaining and enhancing the vehicle as needed. This vehicle has had approximately $45,000 in enhancements added over the past 8 years. The car is maroon with orange racing stripes and painted VT logos (clear coated) with two large (5') Hokie Bird stickers on each site. The rear window contains a large VT sticker. Custom made 19" chrome wheels with burnt orange lips. The primary feature is the extremely loud sound system consisting of two sets of JL VR Crossover Speakers powered by a 450w JL 4 channel amp, two 10" JL subwoofers powered by two 300 watt JL amps, and two interior and two trunk lid speakers powered by a 300 watt JL amp. The car is equipped with a 19" TV in the rear trunk lid with hookups for an XBOX, Satellite Dish, etc. Comes with a DirectTV receiver pre-installed and wired with an IR receiver in the trunk. A 7" in-dash LCD touch screen head unit controls the system with dual-zone front and rear audio allowing you to play music while still watching TV or playing a video game console. The horn is a Horntones mp3 horn, complete with all fight songs and the official Gobble played in Lane Stadium (acquired from the Athletics department). The car has built in orange police strobe lights installed in the front and rear fog light housings and in the custom fiberglass trunk display. Custom fiberglass work is included in the kickpanels and in the entire trunk display. All custom features were pre-approved by the Virginia Tech Licensing Department for one time use on the vehicle. More information on the vehicle and photos can be found at the Hokie Car Website. The domain and website can be included as a part of the sale, you will be responsible for future hosting and domain fees once transferred. I regret having to sell this car, but I hope it lands in the right hands. It is my hope to use the proceeds from this sale to start constructing the next generation Virginia Tech tailgating car, SUV, or RV in the next few years. This is a great car for a current student or recent college graduate as a project car and as a centerpiece of one of the best tailgates on campus! GO HOKIES! |

BMX rider flips for wrecked Detroit football stadium
Fri, Jun 12 2015Detroit 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.

1969 Pontiac GTO Judge vs. 2006 GTO, which Goat gets your vote?
Mon, 08 Sep 2014The Pontiac GTO was perhaps the most iconic muscle car of the '60s and early '70s. With its beefy V8 and color palette screaming for attention, it summarized in a single vehicle everything that made the era so appealing to many young people. Pontiac tried to collect just a few drops of that aura again in the 2000s with a revived GTO, but with decidedly mixed results. The performance was still there with its big V8, but the looks never quite lived up to the powertrain. Now, Generation Gap wants to know which of these Goats is the one to own.
Things are skewed immediately because the 2006 GTO here is a real ringer. It comes from famous tuner Ken Lingenfelter's collection, and it's a one-off example partially fettled by GM Performance boasting a twin-turbocharged LS2 V8 with a claimed 750 horsepower and a wide-body kit. This Goat definitely isn't what you're going to find just browsing for one to buy in the newspaper. Still, dip the throttle just a little, and this GTO pulls like a freight train. It's enough to turn the two hosts into giggling schoolboys behind the wheel.
The '69 GTO Judge here is also out of Lingenfelter's collection, but this one is all stock with a 400-cubic-inch (6.6-liter) V8 and a Ram Air hood for a claimed 366 hp. It might not have the unbelievable power of the turbo '06, but it makes up for it with style to spare.
eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile
Sun, 29 Apr 2012Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
