It retains all of it original sheet metal from quarters,fenders,doors to frame floors and trunk, I have documentation of every owner since day one and have spoken to the original owner of car when I purchased it 5 years ago, he owned the car twice. I am the sixth owner of the car. He special ordered this car because he wanted a blue interior, he traded in a 1965 Grand Prix blue on blue. He ordered it with the Ram Air 3, 4 speed and 3:55 rear, he ordered it with the power disc brakes but no power steering because we all were led to believe that power steering robbed power! Well I added the correct power steering setup when I got the car. He ordered it with the very cool hidden headlights, gauge package and am radio with rear speaker. I added the correct 1969 am/fm. I also added the correct 1969 console. In addition I added a correct repro wood wheel but have the original blue wheel as well. Color of the car is Liberty Blue with Dark Blue Interior.


Condition

Body- Car sat in a barn for allot of years and I have been told mileage is true at 82,000. The original owner bought it back to restore and decided against it, I guess when you buy it new for 4,000 and you get it back worn its hard to restore it for thousands more then you got it for originally. He sold it to a another gentleman who did nothing and he sold it to the gentleman who restored the car in 1994, The body was in great shape but the original owner cut out the wheel wells for bigger tires so that was repaired correctly, all in all there is very little filler on car, I have included pictures of car before paint. When I received the car in 2007 the paint was faded, I had it professionally wet sanded and buffed and it came out great! the car is straight down the sided and smooth, paint is from 1994 so there are some touch ups and such but shows extremely well. I would rate the body and paint 8 out of 10.... I had the underside steam cleaned and painted when I got it and it looks good but I drive the car . The car is as solid , no repro panels , no floor or frame repair...car has integrity!

Engine- I took this to my mechanic and had the engine pulled and checked for compression , the heads were pulled and valve guides redone, I also sent the heads in to get cleaned up for better flow, the inside of the engine was beautiful and it was rebuilt in 1994, I believe there is only 8000 miles on this engine, its 30 over with correct 10:75 pistons,It does have a ram air IV cam, I have all the receipts for the rebuild, When I got the heads back I decided to have a Edelbrock intake put on with all the Edelbrock names and numbers blasted off, sorry Vic! But I have the original cast iron manifold, the choke is hooked up and everything looks stock but it flows much better and the horsepower improved substantially with the head and manifold work without sacrificing stock look or drive ability. we then resealed the engine detailed the engine compartment and stuck it back in, we also resurfaced the flywheel and added a dual center force clutch. rebuilt the carb, resealed the transmission and went through the rear end. Added all new correct fuel lines as well.also has original ram air manifolds

Suspension. - I had everything redone all new front end, springs, shocks, brake lines, all brakes were redone at this time as well.New Power Brake booster and as I said we added power steering. Everything that needed attention for driving I did.

Interior- I had the front seats taken out and re foamed as well as fixed the springs, I added the Wood Wheel and Console and AM/FM, The Interior is all, all original and has held up well, there is a hole in the original headliner . I believe the carpet is new and front windshield, other then that its all from 1969...

 Exhaust- Brand New Pypes Stainless System with Hidden Electric Cutouts, car has a awesome sound but no drone effect, you can drive with the windows up or down , its not obnoxious. Pypes says system adds  extra horse and I believe them!  

Car is sitting on repro redlines on correct rally wheels, also has its original remote mirror for what its worth.

I did so much to this car I hate to look at the receipts, I had the hidden headlight system redone so they operate perfectly,so does the original ram air system, its not repro and very cool to have! 

The car drives like a two year old car, not brand new but pretty damn close, you can drive this car anywhere, Does not over heat a bit!! It is a pleasure to drive, it fires right up and idles nicely but hey you know the engine is there,  it has a ram air IV idle! 

I know everything about this car, it is not a standard dealer ordered GTO, it was a late May special order delivered end of June, I said in the add Judge Delete and thats what I feel it is, everything you would get in a standard Judge, I am a purist when it comes to GTO's and I refuse to add the wing or graphics to make it look like a exact Judge replica, its a great car in its own right and deserves to stand on its own for what it was and is. I think as a driver its a Solid 3 car with very little to make it a 2... Mechanically its a 1.... .

And I saved this for last, Car is.very docile in traffic but does everything you would want it to do when you want to do it. And then some!!!!!

Junkyard Gem: 1992 Pontiac Firebird

Mon, Dec 18 2023

Last spring, this series featured a 1992 Chevrolet Camaro RS in a Northern California junkyard, an example of the final model year for the highly successful third-generation GM F-Body. On a later visit to that yard, I spotted the Pontiac sibling to that car, a Firebird that was born the same year at the same Southern California factory. When the Chevrolet Division introduced the first Camaro as a 1967 model, the Pontiac Division got its own version of the F-Body called the Firebird. While the two cars were built on the same chassis and looked very similar, the first-generation Camaros got Chevrolet engines while their Firebird colleagues got Pontiac engines (including the innovative SOHC straight-six). The 1970-1981 second-generation Firebirds still had some Pontiac-only engines, but Chevrolet and Oldsmobile power crept under some hoods during that period. The third-generation Firebirds first appeared as 1982 models, and they drew from near-identical stockpiles of GM running gear (including the distinctly agricultural Iron Duke four-banger, which could be considered a Pontiac-derived engine). When the Camaro got the axe after 2002, the Firebird's neck was put on the same chopping block. When the Camaro returned for 2010, the Pontiac brand was sputtering to an agonized halt during its final year and there was no chance of the Firebird's return. This car is a fairly ordinary coupe, though it does have the mid-grade 205-horsepower 5.0-liter Chevrolet small-block V8 instead of the base 140-horse 3.1-liter V6. A 5.7-liter small-block was available as well. A five-speed manual transmission was base equipment, but few Americans wanted a three-pedal setup by the early 1990s. This car has the optional four-speed automatic. The MSRP with 5.0 engine, automatic transmission and air conditioning (which this car has) started at $14,304. That's about $31,868 in 2023 dollars. It was built at Van Nuys Assembly in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles County. By the dawn of the 1990s, the Camaros and Firebirds made at Van Nuys Assembly had become known as the worst-built GM cars made in North America, and the plant was shut down forever soon after this car was built. Today, a shopping mall lives where the factory once stood. This car managed to drive more than 150,000 miles during its life, so it beat the odds. The thrid-gen F-Body was pretty antiquated by the early 1990s, but the fourth-gen cars handled better and looked up-to-date for the era.

GM recalling 778,000 Cobalts and G5s, six deaths reported

Thu, 13 Feb 2014

General Motors has announced that it will be recalling 778,562 compact cars after six people were killed in accidents, partially due to the airbags' failure to deploy. An issue with the ignition switch is causing the airbag issues, as well as causing the engine and other components to shut off without warning. The recall covers the 2005 to 2007 model year Chevrolet Cobalt and 2007 Pontiac G5. (Note that the Cobalt pictured above is a 2009 model.)
According to a report from Automotive News, a number of factors can cause the ignition to switch out of the run position, including weights on the key ring, rough or bumpy roads or other "jarring" events. Any of these situations could lead to some vehicle components not functioning properly.
There have been five fatal front-impact crashes that took the lives of six people, although as a GM spokesman noted, all five of the crashes happened off road and at high speed. In each of these cases, though, the lack of airbags wasn't the only lethal factor - alcohol and failure to wear a seat belt also played a role. Outside of the fatal accidents, there have been 17 other crashes where airbags didn't deploy. It's unclear if any of these crashes were caused by the engine shutting off.

Junkyard Gem: 1987 Pontiac Safari Station Wagon

Tue, Aug 9 2016

During the 1960s and 1970s, station wagons based on full-sized Detroit sedans were the default family haulers, and many of those Kingswood Estates and Country Squires and Ambassadors came with unapologetically phony woodgrain-printed exterior paneling and trim. By the late 1980s, however, few were snapping up such wagons, making this '87 Safari that I spotted in a Denver yard an interesting find. Power for this wagon came from a 307-cubic-inch Oldsmobile V8 making 140 horsepower. General Motors used this engine in Buicks, Oldsmobiles, Chevrolets, Pontiacs, and Cadillacs, finally discontinuing production for the 1990 model year. Was the "wood" convincing, even when new? Of course not, but it was a cherished American tradition. Related Video: Featured Gallery 1987 Pontiac Safari station wagon in Colorado junkyard View 18 Photos Auto News Pontiac station wagon
