1968 GTO in Vordero Green with black interior. ram air and 4speed, somewhat early production car. PHS(pontiac historical society) documented, real GTO with a 242 vin. original 400, 4speed transmission, ralley guages, boxed/reinforced rear trailing arms from the factory, a/c, hidden headlights, door edge guards(installed a littler higher on one door from the factory-so they were reinstalled where the factory had put them), front bumper fits nice and headlamp doors work! old am radio works. original color combination of vordero green with black interior. the paint is extremely nice and restored correctly under hood and trunk. nice and restored dash. has old water transfer Royal Racing Team decals on quarter windows. i have a old Bryant Pontiac license plate frame still somewhere and will goes with car. i am the 2nd owner per the gentleman i bought it from...his son was the original buyer from Bryant Pontiac in Covina, CA-built in van nuys, ca. the son passed away and had the car on the side of his house for years and years. the vehicle had ram air parts added by his son with parts from the dealership when purchased new according to the dad who sold it to me( old pontiac part numbers are cast into the hood scoop inserts that are open for the ram air...these are not reproduction). the underside is very nice and has been painted. mostly N.O.S. trim parts and used as little aftermarket as i could get away with. the car is litterally like new and really only needs someome else to drive it, as i have several cars and projects and this GTO is just sitting around because of it's excellent condition...yes, it's pretty much a trailer queen...you can change that. restored approx. 5-6 years ago. just had detailed recently...never had water or a wash, to keep any chance of even surface rust from occuring. trim is near perfect. hidden headlamps/grilles and heaqdlamp covers are original and restored properly and not aftermarket chinese junk. has a/c but could use the 134freon conversion(which is cheap and easy to do) runs great and shifts great...runs and works well as it should. original console restored, original bumpers are on the car, rally II wheels with N.O.S. beauty rings that i bought years ago and N.O.S. Goodyear bias-ply tires, and are not reproduction. the car is incredible. only took it to 1 show and won 1 trophy recently. exhaust trumpets on new exhaust. is missing the original intake, distributor(has HEI) and exhaust manifolds. has the old mickey thompson headers that were on the car and wrapped old-school drag style. has a new gas tank and was gone through to make sure good to run prior to the recent car show i took the car to. people went nuts over the car. the guys at Original Parts Group saw the car and were extremely impressed by the build quality of the car. THIS IS NO CLONE and I HAVE PHS PAPERWORK. all finishes correct in the right places(as i've had several GTO's and always consult my GTO expert and judge who judges events across the country for GTO events)..needs little to be 100%...if you want date coded manifold/carb/dist. i can set you up with the right person(s). engine rebuilt, trans rebuilt, diff rebearinged when restored. drives nice, runs nice...just nice, nice, nice through and through. if you were disappointed when you get the car, i'd have to say you are nuts and perhaps pickier than i've ever been. The reserve is $36,000.00. got that into it, and more-affraid to really add up the real costs. got correct nuts, bolts, fasteners in the correct places...high-effort went into this to be correct...not 'mickey moused'. not a rust bucket...prior to being restored we had to repair small area at rear window corners...repair done correctly. quarters good, doors, roof, fenders were all rust free. CA car that had been mostly covered in sunny OC, CA for decades prior to the restoration...thankfully saved me from much rust to deal with. look at the pictures and it looks great...pictures do not do this car justice and probably nicer than most freshly restored gto's. any more questions, just ask please... should mention that there is no warranty or guarantees on the car, and is AS-IS. it is nearly 50 years old after all. just check out the pictures and see what you think. No PayPal -sorry yal.
On Sep-03-14 at 22:08:55 PDT, seller added the following information: i'm hoping when you've read the description, that, it is understood; this is a ram-air package that was added to a non-originally ram-air car...although it is a 4speed car with original motor, trans, differential...just trying to make it clear and no confusion...thanks for looking. On Sep-04-14 at 13:29:07 PDT, seller added the following information: a/c works but is r12 currently. Bryant Pontiac license frame found and in the vehicle-is broken...sorry, but it is there. will add more as I receive messages asking questions. |

1969 Pontiac GTO Judge vs. 2006 GTO, which Goat gets your vote?
Mon, 08 Sep 2014The Pontiac GTO was perhaps the most iconic muscle car of the '60s and early '70s. With its beefy V8 and color palette screaming for attention, it summarized in a single vehicle everything that made the era so appealing to many young people. Pontiac tried to collect just a few drops of that aura again in the 2000s with a revived GTO, but with decidedly mixed results. The performance was still there with its big V8, but the looks never quite lived up to the powertrain. Now, Generation Gap wants to know which of these Goats is the one to own.
Things are skewed immediately because the 2006 GTO here is a real ringer. It comes from famous tuner Ken Lingenfelter's collection, and it's a one-off example partially fettled by GM Performance boasting a twin-turbocharged LS2 V8 with a claimed 750 horsepower and a wide-body kit. This Goat definitely isn't what you're going to find just browsing for one to buy in the newspaper. Still, dip the throttle just a little, and this GTO pulls like a freight train. It's enough to turn the two hosts into giggling schoolboys behind the wheel.
The '69 GTO Judge here is also out of Lingenfelter's collection, but this one is all stock with a 400-cubic-inch (6.6-liter) V8 and a Ram Air hood for a claimed 366 hp. It might not have the unbelievable power of the turbo '06, but it makes up for it with style to spare.
GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes
Mon, 31 Mar 2014When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:
This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod
Fri, 21 Feb 2014There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.
