Up for auction is a 1972 Pontiac Lemans Endura GTO body code 72 23567 - 1972 (72) Pontiac (2) Lemans/GTO (35) 2-Door Convertible (67). This is a custom-built convertible with all the nicest options Pontiac had to offer in 1972 plus some modern ones as well. The motor is a 1972 Pontiac 455 cubic inch H/O RAM AIR motor with functioning RAM AIR. The car is outfitted with the optional side splitter exhaust (extremely rare for 1972), rear spoiler (actually a 1971 spoiler as the original 1972 “ducktail” spoiler just didn’t look tough enough, Rally II wheels, white interior, white convertible top, numerous NOS and/or original EVERYTHING (with the exception of the 10 – BOLT 3:55 posi-traction gears I had installed and Edelbrock carburetor). It has an NOS hood, numerous other interior and exterior NOS items, some only one of a kind in existence. The car took over three years to build and complete. Although it is a stunning example of a gorgeous restoration, it does need a handful of minor open items to be completed:
I finished 99% of the car and decided to store it for when I had the time to complete it. Since my life is so busy, I have decided to put the car up for sale and make the new owner aware of the items required for completion and price the car accordingly. The car has been in heated, climate-controlled storage since 2003 and has not been started in a number of years. THE BODY: The paint is spectacular Sikkens Lucerne Blue base coat, clear coat. This was a frame-on restoration with nearly every part replaced with original, NOS or restored items. I kept true to the original Pontiac colors with the exterior color scheme, interior and top. 1971 rear deck spoiler, front spoiler, NOS lights, exhaust splitters, re-chromed rear bumper, NOS door handles, restored and NOS stainless pieces, factory hood tachometer, all new or NOS glass except for the rear quarter glass panels. THE ENGINE & DRIVETRAIN Completely rebuilt 1972 Pontiac 455 cubic inch H/O motor YB Code with 7F6 455 H/O heads date code 1241. Functioning RAM AIR, power steering, power brakes, NOS air conditioning system, Edelbrock carburetor (original carb comes with the car), dual tachometers. Completely restored Rally II wheels with Firestone Firehawk 60 series tires (less than 100 miles). Stainless steel dual exhaust with NOS side splitters. New suspension parts throughout. THE INTERIOR Completely reupholstered front and rear seats, new convertible top (trim code 272), carpet. New dashboard, formula steering wheel, floor shift with console, in-dash tachometer, original dash radio plus glove box CD player. This is for all intent and purpose, a 1972 GTO Convertible “Fantasy Car” which I built to drive and enjoy for many years. Well, my life is not so where I can do that. The car literally has less than 100 miles on it since built. I did not want to take it out on the road until it was completely done. Well, it is nearly done with the exception of the items mentioned above. Call me crazy, but I wanted the car to be 100% done not 99% done before I went cruising. This is a dream 1972 GTO. If you could go back in time and custom-design the perfect 1972 GTO convertible (if they truly were produced besides the 1 that does exist), this would be it. Fast forward to the 21st century with modern tires, high performance paint, transmission, gears, etc. and this is what you would end up with. With nearly $130,000 invested, I am looking for a fraction of what I have into it. If you have restored a car before, you know that you can’t put a price on (or be reimbursed for) the number of hours you spend hunting and dealing with all the parts guys out there, exchanging part after part until you get the right one for YOUR car, this car is actually a bargain. I apologize for the pictures since the car could not be easily moved to take better pictures. |

General Motors Recalls Nearly 780,000 Cars To Fix Deadly Problem
Thu, Feb 13 2014General Motors is recalling nearly 780,000 compact cars in North America because the engines can shut down unexpectedly and cause crashes. The company says six people have been killed in crashes related to the problem. The recall affects Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s from the 2005 through 2007 model years. U.S. safety regulators say the weight of the key ring and rough roads can move the ignition switch out of the run position, cutting the engine and electricity. If that happens, air bags may not work. GM says there have been 22 crashes from the problem. All happened at high speeds. Dealers will replace the ignition switch for free. GM says owners should remove nonessential items from key rings until the problem is fixed.

Burt Reynolds' vehicles up for auction at Barrett-Jackson
Tue, Sep 25 2018Burt Reynolds' influence on car culture cannot be overstated. Be it "Smokey and the Bandit" or "Cannonball Run," his films inspired a generation of car enthusiasts. He died a few weeks back from cardiac arrest at age 82. This weekend, four vehicles from Reynolds' personal collection — three Pontiacs and a Chevy — will go up for auction at Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas. It seems Reynolds had plans to sell the cars before he passed. He even filmed a short teaser for the auction and planned to attend the event himself. Three of the cars are Pontiac Trans Ams. Two are re-creations of the cars he drove in "Bandit" and the film "Hooper." Both are 1978 models. The third Trans Am is from 1984 and was used to promote Reynolds' USFL team, the Tampa Bay Bandits. The fourth vehicle is a 1978 Chevy R30 pickup truck. It's styled like the truck he drove in "Cannonball Run." None of the vehicles were actually used in the movies. But they were registered in his name, making them far more legitimate than some other movie-inspired clones. It's unclear how many Bandit Trans Ams Reynolds has owned over the years. Another car connected to him sold for $450,000 back in 2014. His death is sure to drive the price of these new cars even higher.

GM expands headlight recall to 180k Buicks and Pontiacs
Thu, Aug 20 2015General Motors is issuing an expanded headlight module recall to include 180,504 examples in North America of the 2005 Buick LaCrosse (2008 model year pictured above) and 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix. Specifically, the campaign affects 159,584 of them in the US and 20,920 in Canada. When the part fails, the vehicles' low beams can stop working either intermittently or permanently. "GM is unable to confirm any crashes, injuries or fatalities related to this condition," the company said in a statement, and there's currently no permanent repair for the problem. For now, dealers will replace the headlamp module with a new example of the same part. The automaker first announced this campaign in November 2014 when it affected 316,357 examples globally of the 2006-09 Buick LaCrosse; 2006-2007 Chevy TrailBlazer and TrailBlazer EXT; 2006-2007 GMC Envoy and 2006 GMC Envoy XL; 2006-2007 Buick Rainier; 2006-2008 Saab 9-7X; and 2006-08 Isuzu Ascender.
