You know when you have a cool collector car and you go down the road on a nice warm day and people yell out to you, give you a little honk and give you the thumbs up...well my other cars get that, but let me tell you, this gets the f---in fist in the air with a rebel yell!! I am not exaggerating!! FFF-yeah, with a clenched fist as they see me a mile down the road. This is THE gentleman's muscle car! Here is an investment grade 1969 GTO with the following: Built at the Pontiac plant on the 3rd week of May 1969. Paint Correct code 52 upper and lower matador red Paint, chrome, glass, badging, excellent Endura front bumper, rear chrome bumper excellent Hood lines up nice, opens and closes nice, closes evenly (in pic I didn't have it shut tightly) Doors open and shut as they should Trunk pans and floor pans are 'original' and rust free. Rockers retain the original paint from 1969 Seats, no rips or tears, excellent Carpet, excellent New dash cap, excellent Factory steering wheel, excellent All gauges work, including tachometer Correct original seat belts Door panels like new Fuzzies and rubber seals like new, excellent Courtesy lights work Has AM/FM cassette radio-not original, NO CUTS WERE MADE IN DASH Front and rear Rally II wheels with new centers and trim rings Matching spare and correct 1969 GTO jack in trunk Born as a Matador red GTO! Only made this color one year. PHS documentation Laminated copy of original window sticker Numbers matching WT 400/350HP motor (never modified or blown) does not smoke or burn oil Matching number block stamp 26531 New rings, bearings, and rear main seal. (engine had no unusual wear!) needed nothing else (69k Original miles!) It has a factory M-20 Muncie 4 speed Hurst shifter with 3:55 gears. Lock-out Column 4 speed transmission Documents include: original owners manual PHS documentation original sales brochure Has a very nice throaty rumble which no modern car can compare to. Brakes & tires excellent. Mobil 1 synthetic 10W40 oil and AC filter changed every year (only a few hundred miles put on each year) ETHANOL FREE fuel used. I drive that extra mile or two to get it! Its a pain but worth it! Starts, runs, drives and shifts like a new 1969 GTO should!! Everything works, even the emergency brake As a collector, owner of several classics and a car enthusiast I would rate the car overall a 9. Pictures look grainy. I assure you this finish looks like glass! As of today I have had it out 2 times and about an hour- 2 hours each, since the detail. Approximately 25 miles since. Car is capable of driving across the country without issue, but who in their right mind would do such a thing?? Simply immaculate!! 1)1969 Matador Red GTO; Barrett-Jackson (I know; here we go) had one sold with a cordova top 1-2 years ago for $52,800 (date code correct engine) 2)1969 Matador Red GTO sold from a dealer in Ohio (red interior) ask $49,995, I believe sold for around $45,000 3)1969 Matador red GTO asking $49,983 on Hemmings (a 3 speed) ALL great cars, but your chance to get it for less right here. As of July 2014, Nada.com book value is AVG $39,360 HIGH $68,040 with 4 speed and rally wheels option As of July 2014 hagerty.com book value is #2 condition $52,140 (with 4 speed), #1 condition $70,180. I believe $50k is more of a reasonable estimate comparing to other cars in the current market. This car is certainly WAY above average condition. COME OUT AND SEE!!! Sorry no joy rides. Serious only!! I currently have $50,000 agreed value insurance coverage from Hagerty for only $300 a year!! I may have missed something so I may 'add' a revision. Once a bid is placed, a revision can only be added, so you will see exactly what is added. Any questions, just ask. I reserve the right to sell locally. I will NOT stop the auction once reserve is met, regardless. I strongly suggest you see this in person...the cliche' of all cliche's, pictures do it no justice. IT is so true!! MUST SEE in person. It will blow you away!!! To be listed only once, so if you miss out, you can contact me post auction. ((I will NOT send a second chance offer, however I may contact you after the auction ends)) If you are the winning bidder and you fly or drive to view the GTO 'BEFORE' it leaves my possession, I will give you your deposit back if your are totally unhappy!! Bought site unseen, once it leaves my possession, it is yours to keep. 100% of winning bid amount to clear before winner takes delivery. No exceptions. Cash in person or bank check. SERIOUS BUYERS: if you wish to discuss, please feel free to leave me your number and the best time to call. Thanks for looking!! |

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.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
'67 Chevy Corvair convertible vs. '86 Pontiac Fiero in cult classic showdown
Fri, 22 Aug 2014Every few a decades, the folks running General Motors lose their minds briefly try to market a car that public doesn't see coming and often aren't ready for. In the '60s there was the rear-engine, air-cooled Chevrolet Corvair, then the mid-engine Pontiac Fiero in the '80s and the completely bizarre Chevy SSR in the 2000s. What all of these had in common was that they bucked the trend for American models of their era, for better or worse. The latest episode of Generation Gap tasked the hosts with finding two cult classic vehicles to choose between; they came come up with two of these quirky products from The General.
On the classic side, there's a 1967 Chevy Corvair Monza convertible. Being from later in the production run, it wears slightly more aerodynamic styling than the earlier, boxier examples. Hanging out back is an air-cooled, 2.7-liter flat-six pumping out a robust 95 horsepower. In the other corner is the somewhat more modern 1986 Pontiac Fiero SE with a mid-mounted, 2.5-liter "Iron Duke" four-cylinder, an engine nearly ubiquitous in GM cars of the '80s.
Judging by when they were new, the Corvair was far more successful than the Fiero with over 1.8 million sold. Of course, Ralph Nader's book Unsafe at Any Speed kind of poisoned the well, even if the poor safety reputation wasn't entirely deserved. The Fiero on the other hand only lasted for a few model years before shuffling off, but it eventually got its own performance boost with the V6 version and rather attractive GT models. Check them both out in the video and tell us in Comments which you want in your garage.
