I am a huge fan of 64 Pontiacs.  I am selling this car because I bought a 64 Safari...otherwise, I would not sell it.  The car needs a few things, but has a lot of good things going for it. This is not "like an impala" nor is it the GTO's big brother.  This was simply Pontiacs best full size trim line car, as far as I know, and likely one of the best looking cars of the 60's.  The interiors are spectacular, the lines are great by most car folks' opinion and the ride of the 64 Pontiac is very hard to beat.  


I bought it last year in Oregon, prior to that, I was told the car spent most of its life in Las Vegas.  I believe the car was built in California.  

The car needs the following:  a brake/wheel cylinder is bad...brakes stick, I would drive to a neighboring state or further without any hesitation, but that is a bit risky..because of the brakes. The headliner and carpet are bad, the rear passenger window was stuck down when I bought it and the car got wet inside messing up the carpet and headliner as well. The trunk has rust, but looks so nice like it is, and is solid. I would leave it alone.... its dry and looks good/original.  I did put a water pump on it, and that is all I have done to the car.  I have driven it no more than10 miles, but it runs so smooth and shifts so good.  No funny noises or hesitations, no smoke, no knocks, no ticks...none.  It steers extremely well, and is not a rattle trap, its very quiet.  I know these cars well, and it is a good one.  Not a high miles wore out junker.  The wipers are quiet on the windshield as well.... i ran them when I washed it today.   The front bumper is as nice as I have ever seen and its around 1500 bucks just to get one to look like this (re-chromed) The stainless and other chrome (except a spot on the rear bumper) is in SUPER SHAPE... I mean SUPER.  The body DOES NOT HAVE A DENT... LET ME BE VERY CLEAR... IT DOES NOT HAVE A DENT.  The car is almost 50 years old, and again... DOES NOT HAVE A DENT.  The re-paint paint job is faded but looks fine because again.. the car is super straight and the chrome and stainless shine so well. It does have one panel repainted, but i took a photo of the inside of the trunk and you can see it was never bashed in or anything major.  The dash is cracked, the front seat is not perfect.  The door panels are as nice as I have ever seen...WOW... so nice.  the drivers window was slowly working, not now.. the others are slow or need help up... need to be lubricated on the tracks for sure.  The engine and transmission are strong.  The car looks really nice.  I took photos of the car after I washed it, and once it was dry as well.  The right rear tire was pretty low, but its pumped up now and holds air just fine.. car has been sitting in my garage for close to a year and I drove it out without any issues at all.  Starts up nice.  NO SMOKE, NO TICKS, NO CARB ISSUES, no slowly turning over, no smells, etc.  No cracked glass or hazing either, nice factory green tinted glass.  Tires are good, not rotten or bald, not perfect or new either...  I did not look at the spare, but its likely an old bias ply, and the jack is in the trunk factory mounted.  I am pretty sure its 103k miles as the door panels, glass, chrome, and rubber on the pedals seem to tell that kind of story/miles... not double that.   

I do not expect the car to go for much, but be assured, you would spend a lot of time looking for one with a body this nice, the trim and chrome and running condition.  It needs a couple things as I mentioned, but this is a good car.  Not a junk yard cover up job.  
I just finally put it in my name, so the title is about 1 week away.  Likely by the time the auction is ending, I will have it.  

Dont waste my time or yours.  If you bid, bid to win.  Put the deposit down, and pay for it as required. This is not a high dollar/need a loan kind of car...lets treat it like that...  

You cant restore it at my house, eat dinner and take a shower here, and ask me to do all kinds of other things.. this is a low dollar car purchase.  I like getting a deal, and this will be a deal to whoever wins...  low reserve.  I often lower the buy it now and reserve to get instant gratification.. so watch closely.   Thanks for reading this far. If you live in Oregon or Washington, perhaps another state somewhat near here, I may be able to deliver it cheaper than a car hauler etc.  JUST ASK ME or MAKE AN OFFER.....   David

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle

Sun, Aug 21 2022

The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.

GM recalling 1.4 million older vehicles for oil leak fire risk

Tue, Oct 27 2015

General Motors is recalling 1,411,332 older vehicles with its 3.8-liter V6 yet again due to a fire risk. Specifically, there are 1,283,340 of them in the US, and the affected models are the: 1997-2004 Pontiac Grand Prix 2000-2004 Chevrolet Impala 1998-1999 Chevrolet Lumina 1998-2004 Chevrolet Monte Carlo 1998-1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue 1997- 2004 Buick Regal The fault with these vehicles is that oil can drip onto the hot exhaust manifold during hard braking, which can potentially cause of fire. In the last six years, there have 19 reported minor injuries from this problem but no crashes or fatalities, according to the company. Spokesperson Alan Adler also told Autoblog: "GM has reports of 1,345 fires in vehicles that were repaired under two previous recalls for this issue." At this time, GM is still developing a remedy for the problem. According to Adler, the company advised owners to park these vehicles outside for the previous recalls. "The cars can be safely driven. In cases where a customer reported an engine fire while driving, smoke was reported, which would be an indication of a malfunction," he said. This is GM's fourth recall for this problem since 2008, according to The Detroit News. At one point it was believed that aging valve cover gaskets allowed the oil to leak out and drip onto the manifold. A campaign in 2009 covered nearly 1.5 million of these models through the 2003 model year for the same issue. At the time, dealers installed new spark plug wire retainers as a fix.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
