Up for auction with NO RESERVE! is a very rare 1969 Pontiac Grand Prix SJ 428! This car is a survivor and is mostly original. The 428 is original to the car and always fires right up and sounds amazing! It runs and drives great and is a blast to cruise on the freeway, around town or out on the country back roads. This car has just recently went on a 2,500 mile road trip and ran perfect! This car is mechanically amazing!! The 428 sounds very healthy and has lots of power and a smooth idle. The exhaust is all new all the way back to Magnaflow mufflers, and again...it really brings out the character in the 428's sound. The A/C has been removed but does come with sale of the car. The carb has been rebuilt.The alternator has been replaced. The automatic transmission shifts fluidly and smoothly through all the gears with no problems or hesitation. The rear end works as it should and has no whining sounds or funny noises. The car drives straight down the road and the power steering makes for a more enjoyable time in modern traffic. The brakes function as they should and stop the car properly. It brakes straight with no pulling to either side. The factory power disc brakes up front also provide for a more comfortable driving experience in modern traffic. The front suspension is original and the rear springs have been upgraded with Hotchkis Suspension springs which offer a smoother ride and increased control. The front Hotchkis springs are included with the car but were never installed, however the ride is currently smooth and comfortable. The paint is old driver quality as you can see in the pictures and has only been done once from the factory green to white. There are areas of rust pointed out in the pictures but that's it. The floors and trunk are solid which is also shown in the undercarriage shots. The trim is original to the car and still shines good. The back bumper has just been rechromed and looks great. The front bumper has pitting and a hole in the front section. Included with the car is a factory 1969 Pontiac Grand Prix front bumper that has been completely re-chromed the right way. All the glass is in good condition without any cracks. The interior of the car is original and in good shape for being 45 years old. The driver seat has some tearing at the bottom at some of the seams as well as the upper side of the seat. The passenger seat has only a couple small tears you can barely see. The back bench seat is in great original condition with no rips or tears. The headliner is original and in great condition with no rips or tears. The door panels are both original and are in good condition with some minor fading and scuffs from over the years. This is a factory power window car and both windows roll up and down as they should. They can be a bit slow and could probably use a good lube to be as fast as they could. The dash is original with no cracks. The steering wheel is original and the horn works great! The stereo was replaced at some point in the 80's with an AM/FM cassette player that still works and provides some decent sounds to cruise to. This car came factory equipped with the shoulder harness seat belts as well as the lap belts and they are all original to the car. The heater is not hooked up however the controls work and the blower motor works. The headlights work, the turn signals work, the high beams work, the courtesy lights and the brake lights work as they should. The wheels are original rally wheels to the car. This a clean title car and the registration is current. There is no need for smog ever. This is a fantastic rare, original, survivor 1969 Pontiac Grand Prix SJ 428! These 428 cars are getting very hard to find due to the limited production numbers by Pontiac. This car is an awesome driver that turns heads everywhere you go. This is your chance to get a very collectible Pontiac Grand Prix SJ 428 at NO RESERVE!  Please look at my feedback and bid with confidence! Good luck!

Junkyard Gem: 1984 Pontiac Fiero with supercharged 3800 V6 swap

Tue, Dec 31 2019

Like the Corvair, the Vega, and the Citation, the Pontiac Fiero was a very innovative machine that ended up causing General Motors more headaches than happiness, and Fiero aficionados and naysayers continue to beat each other with tire irons (figuratively speaking, I hope) to this day. The General has often proved willing to take the occasional big gamble and huge GM successes in engineering prowess (including the first overhead-valve V8 engine for the masses and the first real-world-usable true automatic transmission) and marketing brilliance (e.g., the Pontiac GTO and related John DeLorean home runs) meant that the idea of a mid-engined sporty economy car (or economical sports car) got a shot from the suits on the 14th floor. Sadly, the Fiero ended up being the marketplace victim of too many issues to get into here, and The General pulled the plug immediately after the 1988-model-year suspension redesign that made the Fiero the sports car it should have been all along. But what if the plastic Pontiac had never suffered from the misery of the gnashy, pokey Iron Duke engine and had been built from the start with a screaming supercharged V6 making way better than 200 horsepower? The final owner of today's Junkyard Gem sought to make that very Fiero, by dropping in one of the many supercharged 3.8-liter V6s installed in 1990s and 2000s GM factory hot rods. The first Fieros came out in 1983 for model year 1984, and the only engine available that year was the Iron Duke 2.5-liter four-cylinder, which generated its 92 horsepower with the full-throated song of a Soviet tractor stuck in the freezing mud of a Polish sugar-beet field. The 2M4 badging stood for "two seats, mid-engine, four cylinders," just as the numbers in the Oldsmobile 4-4-2 once represented "four carburetor barrels, four-speed manual transmission, dual exhaust." This car is a top-trim-level SE model, which listed for $9,599 (about $24,200 today). The no-frills Fiero cost just $7,999 that year, making these cars far cheaper than the only other reasonably affordable new mid-engined car Americans could buy at that time: the $13,990 Bertone (aka Fiat) X1/9. The Toyota MR2 appeared in North America as a 1985 model with a base price of $10,999 and promptly siphoned off the car-buying cash from a bunch of potential Fiero shoppers.

700 horsepower Porsche GT2 RS is the wildest 911 ever

Fri, Jun 30 2017

The Porsche 911 comes in a variety of flavors, each filling a certain taste for a certain customer. Sitting atop the range is the new 911 GT2 RS. In previous generations, the GT2 had a bit of a reputation as a widowmaker, a 911 with massive power that could snap and bite with the slightest agitation. Porsche says the new model has been civilized, but with 700 horsepower going to the rear wheels, we're sure it's going to be as mad as ever. Power comes from a highly massaged version of the 3.8-liter flat-six from the 911 Turbo S. The rear-mounted engine makes an outrageous 700 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. Like we previously reported, the new car will use water injection to help keep things cool. The only transmission is Porsche's PDK. While enthusiasts may lament the loss of the manual, the RS models have always been about performance above all else. Simply put, the PDK is the better performance option. All that power translates to a 0-60 mph time of 2.7 seconds and a top speed of 211 mph. The engine makes 80 more horsepower than the previous model. That makes it the most powerful road-going 911 ever built. In fact, the 887 horsepower 918 Spyder is the only road-going Porsche that makes more power. The fact that Porsche trusts all of that power to go to the rear is both thrilling and terrifying at the same time. In order to manage traction, the GT2 RS gets a number of upgrades. Rear-wheel steering has become commonplace in the 911 lineup, so it's no surprise to see it here. Sticky tires with 265/35 ZR 20 section rubber at the front and 325/30 ZR 21 section rubber at the rear keep things planted. That comically large rear wing adds downforce, adding to stability. The car gets standard carbon ceramic brakes. While some people prefer traditional rotors for the street, like the PDK, this is all about performance. A number of intakes and outlets complement the rear wing and maximize aerodynamic efficiency. It's a bit of a surprise that with all the focus on downforce, the GT2 RS still manages to top out at 211 mph. The hood, front wings, wheel housing vents, door mirrors, side air intakes, parts of the rear end, and a number of interior components are all made from carbon fiber. The roof has been made of magnesium. If you want to drop any pretense of civility and comfort in the pursuit of speed, Porsche is offering a Weissach package that shaves off another 40 pounds from the already impressive wet weight of 3,241.

Junkyard Gem: 1986 Pontiac Sunbird Sedan

Sun, Jun 28 2020

The J-Body platform was a giant seller for GM, staying in production from the first 1981 Chevrolet Cavalier all the way through that final 2005 Pontiac Sunfire. Outside of North America, Opels and Daewoos and Isuzus and Holdens and Vauxhalls and even Toyotas flew the J flag, and better than ten million rolled out of showrooms during that quarter-century. In the United States, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Buick, and Cadillac each sold J-Bodies. Of those, the Pontiac Sunbird often had the sportiest image, more cavalier than even the Cavalier Z24. I've documented a discarded Sunbird Turbo in the past, and now here's a bread-and-butter Sunbird sedan from the same era. The Sunbird name began its life in 1976 on the Pontiac-badged version of the rear-wheel-drive Buick Skyhawk, itself based on the Chevy Vega. The first J-Body Pontiacs had J2000 badges, then 2000 badges, then 2000 Sunbird badges, until finally the pure non-2000 Sunbird appeared for the 1985 model year. I remain disappointed that the 2000 name didn't survive into our current century, because we could have had a 2000 Pontiac 2000, or just the "2000 2000" for short. The base engine in the '86 Sunbird was this SOHC 1.8-liter four of Brazilian origin, rated at 84 horsepower. Originally developed by Opel in the late 1970s, this engine family went into cars built all across the sprawling GM empire. 84 horsepower doesn't sound like much— and it wasn't much, even by 1986 standards— but at least the original buyer of this car had the smarts to get the five-speed manual transmission. This car weighed just 2,336 pounds, a good 500 pounds lighter than the current Chevy Sonic, so performance with the manual transmission was tolerable. The '86 Sunbird's interior was much nicer than those in its Cavalier siblings, though nowhere near the Cadillac Cimarron's reading on the Plush-O-Meter. An AM/FM/cassette stereo with auto reverse was serious audio hardware in a cheap car during the middle 1980s, when even a scratchy factory AM-only radio cost the equivalent of several hundred 2020 bucks. The price tag of this car started at $7,495, or about $17,500 in 2020 dollars. The cheapest possible Cavalier sedan went for $6,888 in 1986, but a zero-option base '86 Cavalier would make you think you'd been transported to the Soviet Union every time you slunk into its harsh confines.
