1968 Gto Convertible Nearly Rust Free Project Car on 2040-cars
Clovis, California, United States
|
This is a 95% complete 68 GTO Convertible project car. If you don't like to do rust repair, this car is for you. I spent about $5000. at my local restoration shop having the trunk pan, rear floor pans and the bottom 2" of the left rear quarter panel replaced. The right rear quarterpanel bottom is almost perfect and I have a picture to show that. The quarters and doors have some filler in them which I would remove and refinish. They are not rusty but need some straightening. The only rust repair left to do that I can see is a small patch at the bottom of the left fender and to finish repairs the body shop started on the corners of the inside of the trunklid. I will include an extra trunklid and some pieces to facilitate this repair. The windshield is cracked and has paint overspray on it's inside. The engine is out of the car and is the original numbers matching 400 as is the turbo 400 transmission. I will set these back in the car for shipping. The engine will need rebuilding as it has sat for years. There is very little missing from this car and I believe it to be 95% complete. When I went through the parts I saw nothing of note missing, but when you assemble it im sure there will be some small items needed. The rear bumper is rechromed. Options are : hideaway lights, PS, PB, Auto trans AM/FM [included but will need to be serviced] an AM radio is in the car now, his and hers shifter, RallyII wheels, custom seat belts. Has 2 consoles and extra rear side panels. This car only needs finish body work and paint and could start being assembled. Very original, no modifications of any significance. Have PHS documentation. Very nice, complete project car with a lot of work already completed. Not a rusty mess like most convertibles you will see. Original California black plate.
On Mar-31-14 at 22:24:19 PDT, seller added the following information: The PHS document has a number called the Engine Unit number [379078] . This number is stamped next to the YS on the front of the block. The fenders will need straightening also but are solid except for one small spot at the bottom of the left fender. |

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.

Junkyard Gem: 2006 Pontiac Solstice
Wed, Sep 4 2019The debut of the Pontiac Solstice, back in 2005 for the 2006 model year, stirred up much excitement in the automotive world. Sales were brisk at first, and then they weren't so great… and then Pontiac itself went under The General's cost-cutting axe. One thing I have learned during my junkyard travels is that even sought-after sports cars eventually reach a point at which they start showing up in the big self-service junkyards. For example, the BMW Z3 began appearing in such yards about five years ago, along with the Audi TT. While the Honda S2000 still appears to be exempt from this process, today's Junkyard Gem shows that the time has now come for the Pontiac Solstice/Saturn Sky. The first Z3s and TTs I saw in the U-Wrench-type yards were crash victims, not worth fixing, and that's the case with this Solstice. In a few more years, I'll start seeing the occasional Solstice/Sky discarded due to general worn-outness. Someone grabbed all the undented front body parts and the transmission (these items, presumably, being valuable), but no junkyard shoppers have felt like pulling the non-turbo 2.0-liter Ecotec. The interior seems dirty, probably from exposure to the elements while sitting outdoors in this Colorado Springs wrecking yard, but not in bad shape otherwise. Perhaps the car's owner celebrated a return from Iraq with the purchase of a sporty new Pontiac, 13 years ago. These cars have an enthusiastic following, so I wasn't expecting to see a junked one so soon after production ceased. I felt the same way about the Chrysler Crossfire, however, and I found two of those last year. What's next, a 2002-2005 Thunderbird? This content is hosted by a third party.
