For your consideration here is a very rare and true 1965 Pontiac Lemans GTO Convertible (PHS Documented) originally equipped with a 389 WT block (4bbl), 4 speed car, original Montero Red with Black Top and Black Interior. This GTO was last registered in the State of New York in 1984. Although, she may be far from her glory days this 1965 GTO Convertible is well worth saving, it will need an extensive restoration from the ground up. The original 389 WT block is long gone and the previous owner placed a later model 400cid Pontiac motor in it. The Muncie transmission is still in the car as well. The original rear axle has been changed out many years ago as well to a 10 bolt. The 400cid motor is not locked up and will run with some maintenance. However, a True 1965 WS code 9778789 389cid/360hp tri-power block is included with the sale of this GTO and is for the most part complete, original Delco Distributor, timing cover, balancer and crank pulley. It will need to be completely rebuilt and gone through as it has not been used for many decades. The WS block passenger cylinder head is marked 093 which would indicate a replacement and the Driver's head is a 77. The Tri-power intake is pretty much complete including Fuel lines with weather head, correct Rochester 2G's and the rare vacuum components, diaphragm, Vacuum slider, check valve and hoses. This too will need to go under a complete restoration. The GTO has most of its trim, and some extras in the trunk. There is rust throughout the GTO on many panels, floorboards, trunk, box braces, firewall and dash areas. The convertible rack is complete and appears to be in decent shape. The frame appears to be solid with no apparent signs of rot or damage. The incorrect bucket seats seen in the photos will be removed and replaced with correct buckets seen below. So, if you're ready to restore one of Pontiacs finest cars produced, here is your opportunity in 2014! I imagine there are hardly any documented 389/4speed 65 GTO's left waiting to be restored this day in age. The sale of this 1965 GTO Convertible will come with a clear Florida Certificate of Title. Should you have any questions regarding the GTO, please do not hesitate to ask. Best of luck to all and Happy Bidding!

Burt Reynolds' old Pontiac Trans Am replica sold for $317,500

Thu, Jun 20 2019

Following Burt Reynolds' passing last September, Julien's Auctions held an estate sale of the late actor's property on June 15-16 in Beverly Hills, Calif. Hundreds of items were included in the auction, but none more valuable than the Pontiac Trans Am Bandit replica previously owned by Reynolds. It easily surpassed expectations when it sold for $317,500. Julien's, the self-proclaimed experts in contemporary and pop culture, listed 876 pieces in the sale, from cowboy boots to a driver's license to scripts. The online preview said it estimated a range of prices from $25 to $200,000. They were way off. Item No. 716 was a replica of a Pontiac Trans Am Bandit that was seen in the original "Smokey and the Bandit." Not the real car, just a re-creation. But its value comes more from who owned the ride rather than what the car was. The replica was owned by Reynolds for some years, and now that he's passed, it's coveted even more. It's not the only Trans Am item that sold at auction. Three Reynolds Trans Am model cars sold for $640, $576 and $512. A Reynolds-signed "Bandit" poster sold for $3,200. A Reynolds-signed poster from the Trans Am plant sold for $1,562.50, a Reynolds custom-built Trans Am office desk sold for $4,375, and a "Smokey and the Bandit" decorative etched glass panel sold for $896. This isn't the first time a Bandit replica has sold for big money. In 2016, a promotional Trans Am sold at a Barrett-Jackson auction for $550,000. We also believe the exact car sold in this Julien's auction was previously bought at a Barrett-Jackson auction in 2018 for $192,500. If that's the case, somebody just made an extremely easy profit.

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

Generation 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.

GM expands headlight recall to 180k Buicks and Pontiacs

Thu, Aug 20 2015

General Motors is issuing an expanded headlight module recall to include 180,504 examples in North America of the 2005 Buick LaCrosse (2008 model year pictured above) and 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix. Specifically, the campaign affects 159,584 of them in the US and 20,920 in Canada. When the part fails, the vehicles' low beams can stop working either intermittently or permanently. "GM is unable to confirm any crashes, injuries or fatalities related to this condition," the company said in a statement, and there's currently no permanent repair for the problem. For now, dealers will replace the headlamp module with a new example of the same part. The automaker first announced this campaign in November 2014 when it affected 316,357 examples globally of the 2006-09 Buick LaCrosse; 2006-2007 Chevy TrailBlazer and TrailBlazer EXT; 2006-2007 GMC Envoy and 2006 GMC Envoy XL; 2006-2007 Buick Rainier; 2006-2008 Saab 9-7X; and 2006-08 Isuzu Ascender.
