On July 22, 1967 Jimmy Perkins, a US Army Sgt. from Fromberg, Montana took delivery of a Gulf Turquoise 1967 GTO HO Convertible from Mac Intyre Pontiac, in Billings Montana while he was on leave from the Vietnam Conflict .This car was Jimmys' dream car. He babied it and stored it under a cover while he was on deployement only putting a few thousand miles on it. In the summer of 1970, Jimmy Perkins was killed in combat by enemy fire earning himself a bronze star, posthumously. This car was parked front and center at Jimmys' funeral, the cabin being filled with flowers from a town that lost one of it's favorite sons.
The car then sat for another year and was traded in by Jimmys' mother on a 1972 Pontiac Station Wagon.
The car sat in the showroom of the Pontiac dealer for years, but the story of the town behind the car would not allow the owner to sell the car. In lieu of that, he kept the car. Driving it sparingly and keeping it in top shape. Unfortunately due to declining health and business, the Pontiac dealer closed about 7 or 8 years ago. The car still has the sign from the Pontiac dealership where it was stored for decades, in a climate controlled environment...in the trunk.
The car is now being offered for the first time to the public.
The car is as original as it can possibly be. All original inspection markings and stampings are all pretty much still there. The rear springs and shocks were replaced, belts, hoses, battery, brake parts, exhaust, tires and due to the car being stored in a showroom with the top down for decades, the convertible top was also replaced. The car has not a ding nor a dent, has to my knowledge never had any paint work and is absolutely perfectly rust free and dry. There is one tiny chip in the paint at the edge of the drivers side door. Every single accessory and light and gauge works as it should. The chrome and brightwork as as nice as NOS.
The interior looks like it was never used! The only defect I could ascertain is one crack in the rim of the steering wheel.
This car looks like it is brand new. The transmission was out once to verify the #'s on top of the trans and to replace the rear main seal and replace the clutch for good measure.
This car is not going to sell cheap. I refuse to give this car away. This car is the cream of the crop in unrestored, unmolested, shape.
Call me on my cell at 312 622 7533 as this car is for sale locally and auction can and will be ended at any time in the event of a local sale.
Clean and clear title in hand.
Car includes every bit of documentation you can imagine. Protecto Plate, old registrations, ect.

2020 Porsche 911 Speedster spied with an angry driver
Wed, Feb 13 2019Porsche gave us details and showed us a concept of the 911 Speedster at the Paris Motor Show. Today, we bring you spy shots of what appears to be the production version of that concept with a few changes on board. They're rather minimal modifications, but the Speedster's driver appears especially angry with our spy photographer as he extends his middle finger directly toward the camera. Sorry, not sorry, Mr. Test Driver. Public testing of pre-production cars always comes with photo risks, and Porsches tend to attract more attention than others. You'll notice what appears to be a Cayenne Coupe prototype we've previously spotted running around with the 911. The Speedster Concept we saw in Paris had epic retro mirrors and fuel cap on the front hood, but both those design touches are absent from this pre-production car. It's tougher to see, but we lost the vents in between the two humps, as well. Everything else appears to have made it to production-spec. We can't say we're surprised these concept car features probably won't show up on the production car, but it is a tad deflating. You'll notice the Speedster is based-off the 991.2 generation of 911 and not the new 992. Porsche did a similar thing when the 997 generation was coming to an end with a Speedster model paying tribute to that car's life. The chassis is said to utilize parts from the 911 GT3, and the wonderful naturally aspirated flat-six engine gets carried over from that car, too. Porsche didn't specify if power will be exactly the same as the GT3, but we'll be expecting about 500 horsepower and a 9,000 rpm redline. We were told the six-speed manual would be offered on the Speedster in Paris, too. Let's just say that we strongly approve of that combination. Production will be limited to only 1,948 cars and begin in the first half of this year. We'll expect a reveal with a full spec breakdown soon, possibly for the upcoming Geneva Motor Show.

How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.
2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
