Numbers Matching, Original 1964 Pontiac GTO 4 Barrel - I have the 3-2 barrel manifold but never converted it because, contrary to popular opinion, the 4 Barrel works better (in my opinion anyway). I bought the car in 2011; prior owner had the car restored and engine rebuilt. Frankly, not the world’s best restoration. Since the time that I have had it have done a “frame on” restoration. While I have made a bunch of modifications, I have all of the original parts; if you’re a stickler you can put it back but take it from me: it is so much better now; pro touring upgrades to suspension and brakes! Generally speaking, completely all original cars are horrible driving cars. This is a great looking car in great shape; it was not built to be a show car; it was built to drive. Everything works except the original radio (didn’t want to take it out of the dash) –I added an amplifier in the trunk so it is iPod ready. Too much to list but I will give it a try: Rebuilt motor (by previous owner); it runs strong and is pretty much stock as far as I can tell 3.08 posi rear Rebuilt original Carter AFB SPC tubular upper control arms, heavy duty ball joints SPC coil springs 550 lbs front, 135 back – whole car is dropped 2-3” Front and rear sway bars Body completely gone over; body gaps and panels all smoothed, straight and repainted R134 Air condition; upgraded compressor, condenser, hoses, blower motor Re-cored the heavy duty radiator Bilstein Shocks all four corners Recondition driver and passenger seats to firm them up Antenna relocated from front to right rear 45 degree with electric motor New starter All bushings replaced – sway bars, control arms, ball joints 4 wheel disc brakes upgrade with dual master cylinder Team III 17x8 “minilite” style wheels; 225/55/17s front, 255/50/17 rear Kumbo Ecsta Custom fabrication of front air scoops – now functional – have original inserts Ram Air Products High Performance Manifolds and Pypes Exhaust Upgraded to 3 speed Turbo 350 transmission – have original 2 speed superglide (3 speed is way better) Added additional water temp and pressure gauge from a ’65 to replace the clock Custom Car Cover $364 Rechromed front and rear bumpers Added vintage vacuum and tach gauges on the center console Petronix electronic ignition with MSD MS6 Receipts for almost everything! |

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.

Best and Worst GM Cars
Thu, Apr 7 2022Oh yes, because we just love receiving angry letters from devoted Pontiac Grand Am enthusiasts, we have decided to go there. Based on a heated group Slack conversation, the topic came up about the best and worst GM cars. First of all time, and then those currently on sale, and then just mostly a rambling discussion of Oldsmobiles our parents and grandparents owned (or engineered). Eventually, three of us made the video above. Like it? Maybe we can make more. Many awesome GM cars are definitely going unmentioned here, so please let us know your bests and worsts in the comments below. Mostly, it's important to note that this post largely exists as a vehicle for delivering the above video that dives far deeper into GM's greatest hits and biggest flops, specifically those from the 1980s and 1990s. What you'll find below is a collection of our editors identifying a best current and best-of-all-time choice, plus a worst current and worst-of-all-time choice. Comprehensive it is not, but again, comments. -Senior Editor James Riswick Best Current GM Vehicle Chevrolet Corvette We were flying by the seats of our pants a bit in this first outing and my notes were similarly extemporaneous. When it came time to tie it all together on camera, I failed spectacularly. Thank the maker for text, because this gives me the opportunity to perhaps slightly better explain my convoluted reasoning. I chose the C8 Corvette because it's simply overwhelmingly good, and it's merely the baseline from which this generation of Corvette will be expanded. While the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing (more on that in a minute) is an amazing snapshot of GM's current performance standing and its little sibling so enraptured me that I went out and bought one, their existence is fleeting. Corvette will live on; forced-induction Cadillac sport sedans, not so much. So while all three are amazing machines when viewed in a vacuum, the Corvette stands above them as both a reflection of GM's current performance credentials and a signpost of what is to come. So, given the choice between the C8 and the 5V-Blackwing right now, I'd choose the C8. In 10 years, when the Blackwing is no longer in production and Corvette is in its 9th generation? Well, that might be a different story. Now, just pretend I said something even remotely that coherent when we get to the part of the video where I try to make an argument for the 5-V Blackwing as best GM car I've ever driven. Or just laugh at me while I ramble incoherently.
