Northampton, Massachusetts, United States

For sale is a professionally restored 1967 GTO. I have owned this car since 1986 and am the second owner. The car has been adult owned and maintained since bought new. I have not driven the car in the last 10 years other than to get it inspected. The car was never driven in the winter since I have owned it, and only occasionally driven in the rain. I am thinning the heard, too busy with work and other responsibilities, and decided the car belongs in the hands of someone who will appreciate it as much as I do, but also enjoy driving it.

 This car is a January 1976 GTO:

 General Motors Corporation

          09C                                       E

STS   67-24217  FRA  248    BODY

TR    223-B                   N-H     PAINT 

          W  2LGR 

          5Y

            BODY BY FISHER

The car has OEM 5 spoke mag steel wheels with stainless steel trim rings, Hurst 4 speed Muncie A22 “rock crusher” transmission,  326CI engine, and Carter 4 barrel (quadrajet) carburetor.

The emblems note 400CI engine (which this car should have). I questioned the original owner when I bought the car asking when the engine was replaced. He claimed he never replaced the motor and that the 326CI engine was the engine in the car when he bought it new.

I had the motor rebuilt when I bought the car in 1986 at Warren’s Automotive, in Palmer, Massachusetts. This included rebuilt heads, new piston and rings, cam chain, main and rod bearings. The rebuilt motor has approximately 40,000 miles on it. The radiator was replaced with a 4-core radiator. I also have an aftermarket (Bob’s Pontiac) fan shroud that goes with the car, but I never installed. The rubber boot for the shift is also torn, and I have a new (Bob's Pontiac) rubber replacement boot that goes with the car, but also never installed.

I had the car painted in 1986 by Ricks Auto body in Springfield, MA. The entire car was stripped to bare metal, windshield and rear window removed, interior removed, front fenders grill etc., removed to eliminate masking errors and provide OEM paint finish quality. Car was checked/measured on their frame machine to confirm no prior accidents.

While at Ricks Auto body, the rear window pan was replaced and the passenger side front windshield post was repaired where the post and firewall connect. All bodywork was professionally done by Ricks Auto Body, Springfield MA.

The interior is original, black and in good to very good condition. There is a small hole in the headliner over the rear right back seat from a mouse. This spring while washing the interior, the passenger bucket seat button to relaase the seat back to let the passenger in the back got stuck. Probably will need some penetrating oil to loosen it up.

The instrument cluster has the stock tachometer and gauges. The original owner disconnected the gauges and installed an under dash SUN water, oil pressure, amp cluster. The original owner also installed a manual choke lever under the dash near the ashtray. The car is missing the windshield washer fluid reservoir. It did not have one when I purchased the car, and I never put one in, as I truly only drove it on nice days.

The overall body and paint are in very good to excellent condition. There are a few minor road rock nicks in the paint, and a few small scrapes on the right front (headlight) quarter panel and the left rear quarter panel from parking lot bozos who had to park near me…no matter how far away I parked from people.

 In 1990 I had all new Moog springs and suspension components installed. 

 In 2000 I replaced the starter

In 2012 I had a new stainless steel exhaust system custom bent and installed, replaced the rear brake lines (Teflon brake lines), rebuilt the Carb with a Carter OEM rebuild kit.

In 2013 I replaced the power steering pump, and also replaced the alternator and power steering belts.

Not looking for tire kickers. You know that the car is worth. Serious only who appreciate a true American muscle car and will enjoy driving her for years to come.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

This KITT replica sold at auction for $32,500

Thu, Apr 23 2020

UPDATE: This 1987 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am KITT replica officially sold for $32,500. Here's hoping the new owner has a blast throwin' it into Pursuit Mode. Let's get one thing straight right off the bat: This isn't a perfect KITT replica. The original KITT used in the Knight Rider TV series was based on a 1982 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. The one you see above, which is currently for sale at auction site Bring A Trailer, is a 1987 model, and since it's a GTA edition, it has some extra body cladding that the smooth-sided television car lacked. That aside, most casual observers would probably never notice the difference, and even those who did (like us) are still likely to be impressed by the car's transformation. This KITT replica is powered by a 5.0-liter V8 engine mated to a four-speed automatic transmission. It ought to be fairly quick, though quite a bit shy of the fictional car's very fictional 300-mph top speed. We're not exactly Knight Rider experts, but some quick Google sleuthing suggests that the Knight Industries Two Thousand supposedly cost more than $11,000,000 to build in Hollywoodland. This one will surely command a significantly lower sum — as of this writing, it's been bid up to $18,000 with four days remaining on the auction. This content is hosted by a third party.

There are several videos of the car that detail its modifications inside and out, but suffice it to say it seems to be a well-sorted replica. Here's hoping its new owner keeps it well clear of other KARRs. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
