Brief history, I got the car at age 15. It was running and driving and mostly complete. Over my high school years it was disassembled for restoration. Instead of restoring it, I got married and started life. Now, after 22 years, a wife, 4 kids & a mortgage later, the car is still un-restored. Maybe it's time to let it go. Here's what it is: PHS documented, Verdero green on green on green, YS code 400, auto, disc brakes, hideaways, A/C, tilt wheel, remote mirror & power windows. When I got it it had a running 400 from a '71. That engine is gone and I have a correct '69 YS code block, but is not #'s matching. The #'s off the front of the engine are 29Z117307 & 0500425 over YS, and at the back of the engine a date code of B 049 & 9790071. The heads are 62 with date codes of K 048 & K 128. I have all the major engine pieces, but it is disassembled and needs to be re-built. I've had the block checked & it's good. The tranny has been re-built & in dry storage for 20 years. The car needs everything, but is not rusty. It has seen some accidents, but doesn't need major rust repair. It's been skinned on the right side and has lots of bondo on both sides. It's been re-painted numerous times. Most major components are present, but it's missing some of the hideaway set up for sure, and who knows how many other little things. I've hung the front clip on it mostly for looks and for ease of transport. The front bumper and lower valance are real nice, not bent up. The hood is great. The front fenders are pretty rough. Good enough to fix if you really wanted original, but they have rust and dents. The dash is pretty bad, but I have another one with just a minor crack on top. The seats need upholstery, but the frames & springs seem fine. The windshield is not cracked, but has some delimitation and sand pitting. I have a youtube video of the car before the front clip was on. Sorry about the poor quality I was pretty sick when I shot it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZWnxwX6tdw Also noticed that the video/sound are not in sync, oh well. Please email or call 541-531-9995 with any questions. The car can sit in the shop for a month or so if arrangements are made before the sale. $500 through paypal within 72 hrs & the balance via money order or whatever in 2 weeks or so, depending on arrangements. I'd encourage a physical inspection, if possible. Again, the car needs everything, but it has great options and isn't rusty. Also, sorry about the sideways pictures. I'm not computer smart enough to figure out how to rotate them. I'd consider trading the GTO for the right late 1990's or early 2000's standard length 12 passenger (not a 15 passenger) diesel van.

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am
Wed, 15 May 2013When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns
Sun, 05 Oct 2014Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.
BMX rider flips for wrecked Detroit football stadium
Fri, Jun 12 2015Detroit is littered with derelict ruins. Abandoned automotive assembly plants, sure – but also former sports venues, like Tiger Stadium in Corktown, Roesink Stadium in Hamtramck, and the Silverdome in Pontiac. BMX rider Tyler Fernengel remembers going to see the Lions and Pistons play at the Silverdome in his youth, and competed there in Supercross as a boy. The stadium hasn't been used in years, but now, with his career just picking up, Tyler has returned to film this video – riding through its halls, jumping its stairwells and flipping over its grandstands and field. It's a fitting tribute to a once-great venue of suburban Michigan. Check out the footage in this latest clip from Red Bull.
