1968 Pontiac Gto on 2040-cars
Junction, Illinois, United States
Just email me at: diedreokino@netzero.net . This beautiful GTO has been frame off, rotisserie restored with the highest attention to detail. Everything about
this car says "here I am". The car is PHS document certified and included. It is also an original HO 4 speed
documented GTO,1 of which only 6,187 were made out of the 77,000. The car has aprox. 2600 miles on it since the
restoration was completed, mostly to shows and has never seen a day of bad weather. Restoration included a
completely rebuilt XH code ,370HP engine built to ram air specs with a performance cam that gives the car a
wonderful, sweet sounding rumble at idle, as well as aluminum roller rockers with # 13 heads. An original ram air
carb, and a Pextronics ignition distributor with date coded ignition wires. The power then goes to a 4- speed
Borg-Warner Super T10 transmission and ends at the 4 pinion posi 3.55 rear end. This car not only runs well, it
handles even better. It actually rides and handles better than some newer cars, with an unmatched power and sound
to go with it. The dual Flow Master exhaust sounds deep and throaty and looks just as good with original 1968 GTO
chrome exhaust tips. Its riding on BF Goodrich tires mounted on Crager SS rims. The front tires are 70 series with
an attention grabbing 60 series tire on the rear. Rear shocks are genuine GM after market air shocks to provide the
extra height and smooth ride. This car comes with all the attention getting details a show car deserves. Rear air
spoiler, show quality chrome trim, front air scoops with a working hood tach. Black leather bucket seats up front
with a show quality leather console in between. The car has been fitted with a Digital REV limiter and is mounted
in the glove box. A fuel warning light has also been added during restoration. Tilt wheel steering and an AM/FM CD
player round out the interior comfort features.
This car looks as good underneath as it does above. The under carriage and pan has been painted carousel red to
match and the frame has been painted a gloss black. The under carriage is also all factory tag coded and show ready
as the photos show. Its best described as a trailer queen both upper and lower. Too many items to list here, Glass,
trim, entire front end, bushings, control arms, weather stripping, and much,much more. This is undoubtedly one of
the cleanest and nicest cars you will come across.
Car is being sold as is with no implied or expressed warranty. Car is also being sold locally and we reserve the
right to terminate auction at any time due to sale.
I will do my best to answer any and all questions.
Thanks, and good luck.

General Motors Recalls Nearly 780,000 Cars To Fix Deadly Problem
Thu, Feb 13 2014General Motors is recalling nearly 780,000 compact cars in North America because the engines can shut down unexpectedly and cause crashes. The company says six people have been killed in crashes related to the problem. The recall affects Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s from the 2005 through 2007 model years. U.S. safety regulators say the weight of the key ring and rough roads can move the ignition switch out of the run position, cutting the engine and electricity. If that happens, air bags may not work. GM says there have been 22 crashes from the problem. All happened at high speeds. Dealers will replace the ignition switch for free. GM says owners should remove nonessential items from key rings until the problem is fixed.

Burt Reynolds' old Pontiac Trans Am replica sold for $317,500
Thu, Jun 20 2019Following 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.
GM recalling 70k Chevy Malibus, Pontiac G6s over steering issue
Sun, Feb 15 2015A problem with the power steering system in the Chevy Malibu and Pontiac G6 has prompted General Motors and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall for an estimated 69,633 vehicles. The issue revolves around the electric power steering assist, which could suddenly fail and increase the risk of a crash, especially at low speeds where the power steering is most helpful. The recall affects 2006-2007 Chevy Malibu sedans and Malibu Maxx wagons (specifically those manufactured between April 1, 2006, and June 30, 2006), as well as the Pontiac G6 (which was offered as a sedan, coupe or convertible) from the same model years and manufactured from April 18, 2006, to June 30, 2006. Owners of the affected units can expect to hear from the manufacturer with instructions to bring in their vehicles to their local dealers to have the torque sensors in the power steering system replaced. RECALL Subject : Sudden Loss of Electric Power Steering , 1 INVESTIGATION(S) Report Receipt Date: FEB 04, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V064000 Component(s): STEERING Potential Number of Units Affected: 69,633 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2006-2007 Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx vehicles manufactured April 1, 2006, to June 30, 2006, and 2006-2007 Pontiac G6 vehicles manufactured April 18, 2006, to June 30, 2006. In the affected vehicles, there may be a sudden loss of electric power steering (EPS) assist that could occur at any time while driving. CONSEQUENCE: If power steering assist is lost, greater driver effort would be required to steer the vehicle at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the torque sensor assembly, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020 or Pontiac customer service at 1-800-762-2737. GM's number for this recall is 14772. Note: This is an expansion of recall 14V-153 to cover additional vehicles built between April 1, 2006 and June 30, 2006. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
