This 1965 Pontiac LeMans GTO tribute convertible runs and looks great. Super nice paint and gets compliments every time she's out and about.  This was an off frame restoration, and I got it in a real estate transaction.  I don't drive it as much as I'd like, and only put less than 200 miles on it since I've had it, so she needs a new home.  Only has about 500 miles since restoration. Almost everything on it is new; will try to list some here, but the list is long.  Will also list what may need fixing as well.
New: Wheels & tires, 4 wheel disc brakes (no E brake)-stops on a dime, bumpers, tail lights & bezels, interior seats & carpet, door panels, modern gauge cluster (over $1000 worth), dashpad, emblems, convertible top (& weatherstripping) with new hydraulic motor, windshield, paint (completely stripped before re-paint), rocker mouldings, radiator, master cylinder with power booster, starter & alternator, Tri-Power carbs (all have been gone through), tubular A arms in front, turbo 400 transmission, front shocks and rear air shocks.  I'm sure I'm missing some things, but everything works great and looks beautiful.
Things that may need attention, like with any older car: The horn doesn't work, they didn't install one, looks like. Due to about a 4" scratch by a bike on the rear left quarter panel, they touched it up but in certain light you can see a slight difference in paint in that spot. Transmission drips a little from the pan gasket. On & off, it drips a few drops of oil.  Whoever installed the interior did not do the cutouts for ashtrays in the back armrests, so no ashtrays.
All in all, it's in super shape, and a "real" GTO in this condition would probably go for $40-50K.  Nothing like driving a beautiful car with the top down.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.

GM doing fine at retaining Pontiac owners

Fri, 28 Oct 2011

This isn't the first time we've reported positive news about General Motors retaining former Pontiac owners. Get a few more stories like this latest report from Edmund's Auto Observer, and it will mark an ongoing positive trend for GM. Edmunds.com crunched the numbers to see how well the General is hanging on to customers after shutting out the lights at Pontiac, and it found that nearly 40 percent of Pontiac owners stayed with a vehicle from a General Motors brand.
The numbers are a little lower than an earlier R.L. Polk & Company study, but Edmunds says General Motors is keeping more former Pontiac buyers than it has since 2007. Most are turning to vehicles from Chevrolet, especially during January and February of 2011, when GM incentivized Pontiac owners to stay under the umbrella. Those moves seem to have worked, and 28.1 percent of Pontiac owners trading up made the jump into a Bowtie.
Buyers that have gone elsewhere have largely stayed loyal to Domestic automakers, with Ford picking up the most conquests from Pontiac, with 9.4 percent switching. Toyota and Honda picked up 7.4 percent of the pool of former Pontiac drivers. The numbers are defying any predictions that Pontiac buyers would completely exit the General Motors fold, and have climbed up closer to parity with the retention figures of other GM brands from a 2009 low of only 16 percent retention.
