1970 Pontiac Grand Prix Model J on 2040-cars
Tucson, Arizona, United States
1970 Pontiac Grand Prix Model J. I got this car as part of a package (I'm an Oldsmobile guy). Here is what I know: The car was in California before going to New Mexico in 1978 (according to the title). Been there till now. Has been off the road for many years (mid 80's). It's all original down to the paint. Still has all four original T3 headlights. Odometer reads 41K. Assume it went over once, since it looks too rough to be original.. I was told this was a one owner car, but the current owner had the car for (at least) the last 36 years. Original 400/4V, Turbo 400 transmission, 10 bolt posi (ratio unknown), dual exhaust, buckets/console, factory a/c, tinted glass, am radio, power steering, disc brakes. The car needs a total restoration, but is complete (nothing missing except a battery). I did get the car running, but it has a knock. You will need to trailer this car where ever you are taking it. It had a vinyl top which is long gone. It caused a small amount of rust underneath (common issue). This further caused a small rust spot behind the right rear wheel well (also common). Unfortunately it also went into the trunk, and rusted part of the trunk pan (see pics). Other than that, the car is a completely dry southwest desert car. Interior has typical sun damage. Dash survived well (only has a few cracks). Door panels also have a few cracks. Seats/headliner and carpet are completely shot. Windshield is cracked. Passenger marker light is cracked. Has minor bumps, but no major dents. Never painted, so you can see everything in the pics. The drivetrain is rebuild-able, or could be perfect for that GTO, or Trans AM restoration. The parts alone are worth the reserve, or this car could be nicely restored. $500 PayPal deposit is required within 24 hours. Full payment will be required within 7 days (or the car will no longer be available to you). Shipping is buyer responsibility (I will assist with loading). Please ask all questions before bidding ends, emails are quickly returned. I can store the vehicle safely in my garage for up to 30 days after the auction, but no longer (unless the car is exported). Please communicate your storage needs in advance, and I will work with you. New Mexico title is from 1978. It is open, free and clear. Bidders with negative feedback will simply have their bids cancelled/deleted. Please do not bid unless you are serious. Thanks for looking. Paul. |

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."
Junkyard Gem: 2007 Saturn Sky
Sat, Jun 26 2021The Pontiac Division didn't have long to live when the Solstice first appeared in 2005 as a 2006 model, and Saturn's head was inching toward the chopping block at about the same rate. Still, optimism reigned — at least, it did until the global economy fell apart — and so Saturn Dealers got a rebadged version of the Solstice to sell: the Sky. Available for just the 2007 through 2010 model years, slightly more than 34,000 Skies rolled out of showrooms before the doors were nailed shut. Here's one of those rare cars, found in a Denver-area self-service yard a few weeks ago. I've found a handful of discarded Solstices in car graveyards during the past few years, mostly with crash damage. This Sky endured a medium-hard impact in the right front corner, which sent it to this place. The 177-horsepower, 2.4-liter Ecotec still resides under the battered hood. The Sky Redline version had a turbocharged engine rated at 260 horses; we can assume that such an engine would be yanked and purchased by the first junkyard shopper that realized what it was. The base transmission in the Sky was an Aisin five-speed manual, but this car has the optional five-speed automatic. The Sky had its own nose and some different badging, but otherwise didn't differ much from the Solstice. For the South Korean market, the Sky got Daewoo G2X badges and was advertised as the ideal vehicle for high-speed chases through Seoul traffic. The same car went to Europe as the Opel GT. Sadly, GM ran out of money to make right-hand-drive Skies, so we never got to witness Holden or Vauxhall versions. Here's Bob Lutz describing the new Sky. Lutz really hated car names molded into plastic bumper covers, so he takes great care here to describe the genuine glued-on emblems. Related Video:
Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
