1964 Pontiac Le Mans with GTO badging

This is a great example of the beginning of the Muscle Car generation!  A great car you can get in, turn the key and drive off in.  Mechanically, there is nothing wrong with this vehicle - it starts and runs just as its supposed to, and sounds just like a true muscle car is supposed to sound!

In the ten years we've owned this car, we haven't done anything to the cosmetics to refurbish or restore the car beyond its current condition.  However, as you can see from the photographs, the car looks beautiful and the interior is almost 95% original with the original vinyl seats.  The only thing I know is not original are the two kick panels with speakers.  The radio in the dash is original, however the guts were removed and replaced with a solid state chassis and mated to an XM tuner in the glove compartment.  The car is 51 years old and probably drives just as it did when new (which is not what you'ld expect if you've never driven a car from the sixties era).

We have done regular maintenance on this car and when necessary, we've replaced mechanical components that needed repair or replacement including rebuilding the automatic transmission approximately five years ago and replacing most of the suspension components about three years ago.

The car has GTO badging on the body outside and inside the doors and dash as well as a tri-power carburetor set up on the original 326 V-8 engine.

The mileage is showing 54,107 and I believe that may be accurate - before we owned this car it sat on blocks in someone's garage in St. Louis, MO.  We brought it to dry El Paso, TX where its been driven perhaps twice a month and stored in a garage 100% of the time.

The car is insured for "stated value" and the insurance company placed a $25,000 value on the car.  We are willing to see it sell for substantially less, but we're not going to give it away.  If you have a question about where our reserve might be, or wish to make an offer for an early sale, write us.  The car is also listed locally and we reserve the right to cancel this listing early if the car is sold locally.

If you are the successful buyer, you will need to paypal a $500.00 non refundable deposit within 24 hours and pay the balance within 3 business days via wire transfer or cashier check.  If the final payment is by cashier check, we will hold up delivery of the car until our bank has assured us the check (even cashier checks) has cleared.

You are responsible for arranging shipping on this car, but we're happy to help in the process by making the car available for pick up whenever necessary.  But, please don't arrange to pick up the car until we have assured you that all funds have cleared.  The title is a clear Texas title and we will deliver the signed title and any documents necessary for you to transfer title in your state.

For shipping purposes the car is located in the 79912 zip code.

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.

Rumormill: DeLorean Motor Company considering rescuing Pontiac Solstice?

Wed, 07 Oct 2009

DeLorean Motor Company Pontiac Solstice renderings - Click above for high-res image gallery
General Motors has made a science out of sharing platforms. So when the company's Kappa platform was introduced for a new rear-drive roadster to be distributed across three different motor divisions, you'd have figured the program was pretty safe, right? Unfortunately for the workers at the Wilmington Assembly Plant which manufactured the Kappa roadsters, those three divisions were Pontiac, Saturn and Opel - three units which the General has either sold or shut down. Which is a shame, because a perfectly good rear-drive roadster platform is a heck of a thing to waste.
In one of the strangest rumors we've heard recently, however, our compatriots over at Jalopnik report that the DeLorean Motor Company (yes, that DeLorean Motor Company) is considering buying the plant and the platform from GM and putting it back into production as a new DMC.

Junkyard Gem: 1997 Pontiac Sunfire SE Convertible

Sun, Mar 5 2023

For the entire 24-year production run of the GM J platform (best known for the Chevrolet Cavalier), the Pontiac Division offered new J-Body cars for sale in the United States. First there was the J2000, followed in quick succession by the 2000, 2000 Sunbird and Sunbird. The Sunbird stuck around until the Cavalier got a major redesign for the 1995 model year, at which point Pontiac changed the car's name to Sunfire. Today's Junkyard Gem is one of those early Sunfires, a top-of-the-line SE convertible with the optional big engine and manual transmission. The Sunfire was an extremely close sibling to the same-year Cavalier (by the late 1980s, all the other US-market GM divisions had dropped their J-cars, which meant no more Skyhawks, Cimarrons or Firenzas), quite difficult to distinguish from its near-twin at a glance. The base engine for the 1997 Sunfire convertible was the pushrod 2.2-liter straight-four that powered so many J-bodies of the 1990s. That engine produced just 120 gnashing, valve-floating horsepower, not much by late-1990s standards. For a mere 450 additional dollars, however, the 2.4-liter Twin Cam engine and its high-revving 150 horses could be had by '97 Sunfire buyers. That's what's in this car. This is one of the members of the Oldsmobile Quad 4 family, though some fanatics will yell at you if you apply that name to the versions that don't have big QUAD 4 lettering cast into the valve cover. This is the most powerful engine ever used in production Sunfires. For 1997, Pontiac offered a four-speed automatic transmission for no extra cost in the Sunfire convertible. Buyers of all other Sunfire models that year had to shell out either $550 or $810 ($1,026 or $1,511 in 2023 dollars) for a two-pedal rig. That means that the buyer of this car really wanted the five-speed manual transmission (or just hungered for the $810 credit offered in the fine print for takers of the manual). Plenty of free-breathing engine power, five-on-the-floor driving enjoyment and the open skies above. What a fun car! This one made it to nearly 180,000 miles. For this car with the Quad 4 under the hood and a clutch pedal on the floor, the MSRP was $18,539 (about $34,584 today). Its Cavalier LS convertible twin with the same engine/transmission setup cost $17,365 ($32,394 now). This car has a bunch of options, including the 15" Rally aluminum wheels, so the out-the-door price would have been higher. The last year for the Sunfire was 2005, same as the Cavalier.
