i am selling what started as a project to clone it to a 70 gto but no longer have the time or money as i will be moving to frankfurt on the 30th, But the car will stay in my fathers garage until winner/buyer is able to pick up.

the title is clean, the original color was beige but i painted it at my college as a project back in early 2000s so the paint was not a good pro quality paint job and the body is straight with no major dents. only 3 inch dent and scuffs on the paint.

car has AC vents, but no AC compressor system.

original mileage read on speedometer is 85,430 miles

it does not have the original 350 v8 pontiac block it came with, it has a chevy block 383 stroker engine, i bought the block and the shop built the 383 for me and a turbo 400 transmission from TCI transmissions purchased from summit. Engine has headers, edelbrock 750cfm 4 barrel carb and edelbrock torker manifold and stock heads.the engine and tranny have not been broken in fully.. i would say it has had at least 80 miles on the rebuilt chevy block and the transmission is new so not even broken in fully. it was a stock column shift lemans but we added a b&m floor shifter. so its not original. the car runs great but if you want to race it or make faster i recommend you get an auburn differecial posi traction carrier with 3:55 rear gears or up to your liking.

I am currently changing the oil gasket and filter and oil pump on the car as you can see by the pics the car is on ramps but as soon as its done, its ready to go to its new home. just needs tender love and care.. clone it to a gto or leave it lemans.

i can send more pics upon request,

buyer responsible for shipping or picking up. will hold until buyer can pick up.

2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern

Mon, 07 Nov 2011

General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.

Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."

Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way

Tue, 21 Feb 2012

There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.
