   Up for auction is a 1968 Pontiac Grand Prix with the ultra rare 428 engine and 4 speed transmission. There were only 306 manual big cars made this year by Pontiac. This one came in Cameo Ivory with a black vinyl top and Burgundy red interior. The car originally came from Hughes Motor Company in Prestonsburg, Ky. The paint is nice with a minor blemish here and there. I would rate it an 8.5 out of 10. The vinyl top is excellent. The interior is original to the car and shows minor wear with no rips or tears. Factory options include PS, PB, AC, dual exhaust, gauge cluster, electric clock, push button radio, rear speaker, trunk release, open rear, ride and handling package, HD 15in. wheels, bucket seats, console, RH & LH vanity mirrors, soft-ray glass, power antenna, and heavy duty air cleaner. Added options include 14in. Rally II wheels with Coker G70x14 bias-ply redline tires, AM/FM factory radio, wood wheel, and hood tach. 
   Car runs well with no issues mechanically. At some point, HEI was added. It currently has an Edelbrock 4 barrel carb and intake. The original carb and intake have been refurbished and are included with the car. The following items are needed to make car completely right. The gas gauge reads straight up. Blower motor needs replaced. One of the headlight doors is lazy and doesn't always remain closed when car is off. Wood wheel horn button needs to be installed (I have). Glove box could be replaced. Trunk release has been removed. Car is nice cosmetically. Only issues are a scratch on the passenger front side window near the lock button and a blemish and ding on the front bumper. I would have taken care of these things, but I need to sell quickly as I have lost my job. I purchased this car 2 years ago from a man in Pa. and have enjoyed it immensely. It has won numerous awards in people's choice car shows and it always draws a crowd due to its rarity and exquisite color combination.
   Car is sold as-is. It is 45 yrs. old and has been maintained well over the years. I am looking to get an amount somewhere between average and high retail according to NADA values. This is an excellent opportunity for the rare Pontiac collector. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time as car is for sale locally. Full payment is due 7 days after auction ends. Call or e-mail me with any questions. My name is Richard and the phone number is (407) 808-4044. I am located in Orlando, Fl. Thank you for bidding and good luck.

Junkyard Gem: 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix Daytona 500 Edition

Tue, Aug 29 2017

The W Platform proved to be extremely long-lived and versatile for General Motors, remaining in production from 1988 all the way through 2016. You had your Impalas and your Regals and your Cutlass Supremes, and of course the 1988-2008 Pontiac Grand Prix was a W-body. For the 2000 model year, Pontiac made the racy-looking Daytona 500 Edition Grand Prix, an example of which I just found in a Northern California self-service wrecking yard. 2,000 of these cars were made, presumably because it was the year 2000, and each one sports plenty of cool-looking Daytona 500 graphics. Perhaps some Regal owner will buy these seats and swap them. This is the second junked Daytona 500 Grand Prix I have seen recently, after this one in Colorado. The Daytona 500 was about the same as the GTP version, with Eaton-supercharged 3800 engine making a respectable 240 horsepower. Disappointingly, this car has an automatic transmission. It never saw 150,000 miles, unlike most 21st-century W-bodies I see in wrecking yards. Featured Gallery Junked 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix Daytona 500 Edition View 21 Photos Auto News Pontiac Sedan

Jay Leno tries out a 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge that looks factory fresh

Tue, Jan 31 2017

The 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:

Celebrate the summer solstice by building the Pontiac Solstice shooting brake GM never did

Fri, Jun 21 2019

Happy summer solstice, everyone! To celebrate, we have a particularly unusual eBay find connected to the Pontiac Solstice sports car. A seller has leftover inventory of fiberglass hardtops designed to turn the Pontiac Solstice roadster into a shooting brake. The seller says they came from a since-closed Indiana company, and they're clearly inspired by another aftermarket part and even a GM concept that never saw the light of day. We'll start from the beginning: the stillborn Chevy Nomad concept. It was a concept that came out about the same time as the original Solstice concept, and it was clearly based on the same platform, featuring a small two-door body and a long nose. It also had unashamedly retro Nomad wagon design cues and cues from the original Corvette. The car never saw production, but clearly people were interested in having a wagon-like sports car. That brings us to the next bit of history with an aftermarket hardtop developed by German company EDAG. We saw a prototype in person, and the overall shape seemed to fit the car — and the wraparound window design certainly seemed Nomadic. Besides the unique look, the hardtop and its functional hatch made the Solstice roadster's miniscule cargo space far more usable. It doesn't appear many of the tops were sold, though. These tops on eBay look very similar to the EDAG tops, though it's not clear if they're a direct replica or something similar. Being that the parts are leftover inventory, the seller notes that some of the tops may be missing pieces for installation, so only those who are handy with bodywork and fasteners, or who are able to lean on someone who is, need apply. Even with some extra work, if you really want a Solstice shooting brake, this is likely easier and cheaper than commissioning a shop to custom-build a roof for your. If you're interested, check out the link. They're $499.99 apiece, and the seller will also provide a set of seals and gaskets for the top for an extra $125.
