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!

Wed, Jan 19 2022

Autoblog may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Pricing and availability is subject to change. No donation or payment necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes.Â See official rules on Omaze. Normally when we write about Omaze sweepstakes, they involve a car that you'd never go out and buy on your own. A six-figure camper van build, a $300,000 Ford Bronco restoration, a Land Rover Defender that's so beautiful it should be in a museum. Today's prize might beat out all of those, because not only could you win a dream car, you'll be entered for a chance to win $100k cash to go along with it.Â There are a lot of cars you can buy with $100k. You could buy a Land Cruiser Heritage Edition or a Mustang GT500 or 6 Chevy Sparks and start your own racing series. Personally, if I won that kind of dough, assuming I also won this Bentley Bentayga, my favorite of Omaze's current offerings, I'd probably use some of it to buy something quirky, like a Honda Element converted into a pop-top camper, or a restored/upgraded 60 series Land Cruiser. Think that's a terrible way to spend the cash? That's the beauty of it. It is completely up to you. No one can tell you what to do with it. Except maybe your spouse.Â Here are our favorite vehicle giveaways we’ve found online this week: 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E GT Performance Edition - Enter at Omaze Regardless of what you think aboutÂ FordÂ using the nameÂ MustangÂ for an electricÂ crossover, one thing is for certain, theÂ Mustang Mach-EÂ GT is an impressive piece of machinery.

Here are the specs of the Mach-E in question, according to Omaze: Maximum Seating: 5 Engine: fully electric motors Drivetrain: eAWD Exterior Color: Rapid Red Metallic Â Interior Color: Black Maximum Horsepower: 480 hpÂ Maximum Torque: 634 lb-ft Acceleration: 0-60 in 3.5 seconds Range: 235 miles Approximate Retail Value: $75,500 Cash Alt: $56,625 Special Features: GT Performance Edition; panoramic fixed-glass roof; Ford Co-Pilot360Â™ Active 2.0 and 360-degree camera; BremboÂ brakes; RTR Design Package including 20Â” RTR Aero 5 wheels, Nitto NT555 G2 tires and RTR Speed Block graphics Win a Restored 1969 Pontiac GTO - Enter at Omaze Joel Stocksdale, News Editor:Â There are an awful lot of ways to build a restomod.

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.

Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
