Indianapolis, Indiana, United States

1963 Pontiac Safari wagon This is a super fun car. I've owned it for a couple years and have put a lot of time and money into making it a safe and reliable, turn key car. I would drive it anywhere without hesitation. If you are the high bidder, rest assured you can fly in and drive home without concern. It's been all over the country on the Hot Rod Power Tour and several Good Guys or NCRS shows. We have had a blast with it. It has a smooth riding, fully adjustable 4 way air ride suspension with bags and shocks on all four corners. Engine is 1969 400 that has been fully rebuilt with a lumpy Summit cam, new pistons, timing set, oil pump, seals, etc. I just installed a new 2200 B&M stall converter with a new Hays high performance flex plate and new starter. Runs cool with high performance aluminum radiator. It has new rear axle bearings and seals. Exhaust is all new with Flowmaster 40's and 3" pipes. Has cross over installed and sounds deep and rowdy! Always gets "thumbs up". Averages 15 mpg on the highway at 65 mph with tall 2.90 rear gear and 235/75/15 tires. 15x6 and 15x8 wheels tuck under fenders without rubbing. It has a new heater core. All of the headlights, tail lights, turn signals and wipers work perfectly. Heat and defrost work perfectly. Gas gauge works but drops quickly from 1/4 tank reading.
Body is super solid! NO RUST THROUGH anywhere on the car. It came out of the Northwest and never was subjected to salted roads. The floorboards and tailgate are beautiful and rust free. No patchwork anywhere on the car!!! No filler and no paintwork ever. This car has the patina that only Mother Nature can produce from 51 years of honest use. No FAUXTINA! Interior is very nice and comfortable. Seats and door panels are originals with minor defects. The seats and springs are still firm and not all bagged out. Door panels are super nice. All the wind-lace has been replaced. All the interior vinyl in the cargo area has been restored with original vinyl from SMS with the correct stitching. New headliner. Over the past year I have invested over $2000 in the interior alone. Electric rear window works perfectly. Color matched Super Sport steering wheel and working NOS swamp cooler round out the interior. All the interior stainless has been polished. Carpet, pad and sound deader, wind-lace, cargo area trim and headliner are NOS I really enjoy this car and don't mind keeping it, but have several unfinished cars that need my attention. The money from this one will help me finish at least four of my other cars. Priced below build cost. Hard to find wagon. Bid early, bid often and bid to win. Check my feedback and bid with confidence. Please ask any questions before you bid. Please make sure you have your funds lined up because I seriously doubt that your local credit union is going to float you on this one.

Jay Leno tries out a 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge that looks factory fresh
Tue, Jan 31 2017The latest machine to show up on Jay Leno's Garage is arguably the most iconic Pontiac GTO, the 1970 Judge. The example here is a radically red model and features all of the nifty Judge features, such as the mega-size rear wing, hood-mounted tachometer, and ram air hood scoop. The latter of which had a panel in the hood that would open up at full throttle to let in all that cool air from outside. The car is owned by the Wade Kawasaki, president of Coker Tires, a company that specializes in reproducing classic tires. Not surprisingly, his GTO features a set of the company's Firestone Wide Oval tires. That particular tire would have come with the car originally, but these new versions are built like modern radial tires, rather than the slippery bias-ply originals. The tires are indicative of how Kawasaki restored the rest of his Judge. Everything has been taken back to factory-spec. It has a stock, 400-cubic inch V8 that makes a supposedly underrated 366 horsepower, and it's complete with the chrome valve covers and foam intake seal. The tires are accompanied by exact replica GTO Judge wheels. The car even has the true, original interior. Somehow, the upholstery, dash, and other interior components survived in excellent condition. Check out the video above for more details on this flashy muscle car, as well as some reminiscing about the "good ol' days," and some history on the origins of the car's name. Related Video:
Burt Reynolds' personal 1977 Trans-Am from Smokey And The Bandit for sale
Fri, Dec 5 2014Smokey and the Bandit is one of those quintessential 1970s car movies with insane premises but tons of fun. After all, the basic plot of the film is about distracting the police to transport cases of Coors beer cross country. While Burt Reynolds receives top billing, the real star is definitely his black Pontiac Trans-Am. Now, there's a chance to posses one of these muscle machines actually owned by Reynolds, and it's already proving quite popular. The car is a '77 Trans-Am with the famous, gold screaming chicken proudly on the hood. However, while this is a piece of Reynolds memorabilia, it's not really part of cinematic history. According to the listing, this example was used as a promotional vehicle and then given to Reynolds with a title showing him as a previous owner for proof. Still, there's 400-cubic-inch (6.55-liter) V8 under the hood with a 4-barrel carburetor and an automatic transmission. A plaque inside the driver's door proclaims the car as a "1977 Pontiac Trans Am Owned By Burt Reynolds," and there's a Bandit logo on the door. This is just one lot of Julien Auction's sale of Reynolds memorabilia on December 11 and 12 at The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, NV. Bidding is already running online, and the Trans-Am is up to $130,000, as of this writing. For the true Reynolds fanatic, the auction also lists the motorized stagecoach from his wedding to Loni Anderson. It rides built on an International Harvester Scout frame with an interior reportedly from Dolly Parton.
Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Here comes the Judge. Court is in session. The verdict is in. How many more tired clichés can we come up with? It hardly seems to matter, because it's happening: Trans Am Depot has announced via the teaser video below that it is launching a 2014 GTO, complete with Carousel Red (bright orange, really) paint and full Judge badging.
The car is based on Trans Am Depot's 6T9 Goat, which, in case you don't get the reverential references, is meant to mimic the look of the 1969 Pontiac GTO. As with the company's other cars -including the 2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am we recently drove - the GTO will be based on the current Chevy Camaro, which means two doors, V8 engines and rear-wheel drive, just like the muscle cars of days past.
As for actual details of what's under the 2014 GTO's hood, we're completely left hanging. We'd expect some sort of power adder (turbo, supercharger or possibly some other form of a highly massaged version of the Camaro's V8), and we certainly know that GM has any number of hi-po crate engines to choose from.
