Up for auction is my 1954 Pontiac Star Chief Custom Catalina, with 39K original miles. What a Kool ride this is.... This car is all original except for the matte/satin Black paint and the Gold top. I have every single original piece for this car. This Pontiac still runs on the original 6-Volt system and runs and drives pretty amazing considering it is 60 years old. The original 268ci straight 8 motor has been professionally gone through and runs like a top. I recently have done the following: Replaced both rear quarter panels from the door to the bumper on both sides, including the rear inner fenders, went through the brakes, rebuilt the carb, new carpet, new head lights, new paint, and put brand new tires with porta-walls on it. The original interior would need done depending on which way you would do this car. I threw some mexican blankets over it and think it looks pretty rad that way. The chrome on the car seems to be very good for its age but would need re-chromed if you wanted that new show quality look. As far as rust there is some on the front lower parts of the front fenders and there is a small hole on the driver floor near the body mount. Ls swap? Air ride? Keep it original? You decide.. I've lost interest in this and want something different. I may be interested in trades as well, 28-31 model a roadster?? Let me know what you got. This car is listed locally for sale and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Buyer to come pick up and or arrange shipping. $500 deposit is required within 24 hours of listing end. Please don't bid if you are not 100% interested and please don't message me asking what the reserve price is. |

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.

Junkyard Gem: 1987 Pontiac Safari Station Wagon
Tue, Aug 9 2016During the 1960s and 1970s, station wagons based on full-sized Detroit sedans were the default family haulers, and many of those Kingswood Estates and Country Squires and Ambassadors came with unapologetically phony woodgrain-printed exterior paneling and trim. By the late 1980s, however, few were snapping up such wagons, making this '87 Safari that I spotted in a Denver yard an interesting find. Power for this wagon came from a 307-cubic-inch Oldsmobile V8 making 140 horsepower. General Motors used this engine in Buicks, Oldsmobiles, Chevrolets, Pontiacs, and Cadillacs, finally discontinuing production for the 1990 model year. Was the "wood" convincing, even when new? Of course not, but it was a cherished American tradition. Related Video: Featured Gallery 1987 Pontiac Safari station wagon in Colorado junkyard View 18 Photos Auto News Pontiac station wagon
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."
