 Up for sale is a great running and driving 1968 Pontiac Catalina Convertible that is close to being an incredible car with the new owners touch!  It has a lot of potential without breaking the bank and can be driven anywhere.  It has a 400 ci V-8, 4bbl carb, TH400 automatic transmission, power Top, Cold A/C that has been converted to 134A.  We have owned this car since 2006 and has been driven to the Turkey Rod Run in Daytona Florida several years without problems.  This is a great running driving car that has good manners, stops on a dime and very reliable. 

  The 400 ci engine and TH400 trans were both rebuilt in 2008.  The front suspension components were rebuilt, replaced and all hard parts were blasted and painted as well as the front and rear brakes.  This car has a fairly new exhaust system including lead pipe, muffler, and tailpipe.  This car rolls on factory GM Pontiac Rally wheels that were restored and mounted on 215/70/15 Dunlop Signature Radials that have more than 90% tread life.

  The interior of the car is Ivy Gold and is in decent original condition.  The carpet has been replaced recently as well as the correct dash knobs.  There is no factory radio although a Sony AM/FM/CD player was installed under the dash.  At the same time the seats were recovered in factory materials and color and a Billet Steering wheel was installed. The door panels are in fair condition please look at the pictures.  The original black top does have a tear on top.  this car has new power top rams, hoses, and correct power top switch and works great.  All options and accesories work as they should.

  The Body of the car is very solid.  As you can see in the pictures the front clip of the car and trunk lid has had body work done and painted the factory color.  This was done 6 years ago by Color Concepts in Clearwater FL.  The glass in the car is all factory and the windshield has a small crack between panes on the top passenger corner although all other glass is in great condition.   A new front bumper was installed along with NOS front and rear lower valances. There is a ding in the top of the hood and normal wear along the other panels.  The only rust in the car is in the rear quarters, above the rear wheel openings and starting on the rear tail panel.  I have factory sheetmetal off another car for some of the repair panels.  he floor panels, frame, and trunk pans are clean and rust free.  Included with the car are numerous extra parts such as NOS tail light lenses, extra NOS Chrome pieces, new convertible top well, extra decklid, fender wells, dash parts, new roof rail weatherstrips, Etc.

  To sum things up this is a great solid piece of Detroit craftsmanship that can easily be brought back to perfection by someone with the time to finish.  Please look at the pictures and feel free to ask any questions.  you can email me or call Aaron at 727-424-0392  It is the winning bidders responsibility to arrange and pay for shipping or I would be willing to pick someone up at nearby Airport so they could drive the car home.  Thanks and Good Luck bidding!

Wanted: 1967 Pontiac GTO for a special Father's Day

Thu, 07 Jun 2012

Jim Sharp of Elkhorn, Wisconsin needs a red 1967 Pontiac GTO to make his dad's Father's Day, possibly his last one, something extra special.
Back in the '60s, Jim's dad, Ken, drove a cherry red 1967 GTO to California for a job. He met a girl, got married and decided his wife's 1965 Ford Mustang was more fuel efficient than the Goat and the GTO was sold. As the story almost always goes, Ken has had seller's regret ever since.
Jim always meant to find a 1967 GTO and, with his dad's help, restore it. But life got in the way, time slipped by and Ken was recently diagnosed with esophageal cancer and given about three months to live.

General Motors Recalls Nearly 780,000 Cars To Fix Deadly Problem

Thu, Feb 13 2014

General 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.

BMX rider flips for wrecked Detroit football stadium

Fri, Jun 12 2015

Detroit is littered with derelict ruins. Abandoned automotive assembly plants, sure – but also former sports venues, like Tiger Stadium in Corktown, Roesink Stadium in Hamtramck, and the Silverdome in Pontiac. BMX rider Tyler Fernengel remembers going to see the Lions and Pistons play at the Silverdome in his youth, and competed there in Supercross as a boy. The stadium hasn't been used in years, but now, with his career just picking up, Tyler has returned to film this video – riding through its halls, jumping its stairwells and flipping over its grandstands and field. It's a fitting tribute to a once-great venue of suburban Michigan. Check out the footage in this latest clip from Red Bull.
