1969 Pontiac Gto Ram Air Iii Factory 4 Speed Kellogg's Sweepstakes Give-away Car on 2040-cars
Pine Grove, Pennsylvania, United States
Up for auction is this all original Numbers Matching 1969 Ram Air III Factory 4 Speed Pontiac GTO. But what sets this car apart from other 69 GTO's is the fact that this is a Kellogg's Cereal Company Sweepstakes Giveaway car. It is one of two documented Kellogg's giveaway cars, the other being a 1969 GTO 400 2 Barrel Automatic car. I have the PHS Documentation to prove this along with all the original paperwork from Pontiac and Kellogg's to the original winners of the car. I also have the original Protecto Plate. I have a clear PA title in my name. All factory options that the car was built with are still there except the AM Push Button radio that was replaced with a period correct AM-FM 8 track. The cars options are as follows: Rally 2 wheels, Hood Tach, Rally Guages, Wood Grain Shift Knob, Remote drivers mirror, wood grain steering wheel, console, Tinted glass and rear seat speaker. This car's factory color is Crystal Turquoise with a Parchment Bucket seat interior, a very desirable color combination. This car will need to be restored but it is all there. The car just came out of long term storage, last on the road in 1987. I drained out the old gas and put five gallons of premium 93 in. In no time I had her running, don't run the best as I believe the carb needs rebuilt but there is no rapping or knocking noises coming from the engine. The matching numbers engine(WS Code L-74 366 Horsepower), transmission(M-20), rear axle(WH Code 3.55), carburetor(273), distributor(1111941) and starter(1108353) are all shown in pics. The original Ram Air air cleaner is also there. The engine still retains the factory cast iron headers. All the original reverse lockout components are still there along with the correct Hurst 4 speed shifter, these items were usually removed and replaced over the life of a car like this. All the rare and hard to find parts are there making this an easy restoration. I included pics of the trunk and floor pans, only needing minor restoration work. The frame is solid, I see no rot or repairs. I included many detailed pictures to show actual condition of the car. This is a car for the discriminating collector who wants something no one else has in their collection with the paperwork to back it up. Auction may end at anytime as vehicle is for sale locally.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
Best and Worst GM Cars
Thu, Apr 7 2022Oh yes, because we just love receiving angry letters from devoted Pontiac Grand Am enthusiasts, we have decided to go there. Based on a heated group Slack conversation, the topic came up about the best and worst GM cars. First of all time, and then those currently on sale, and then just mostly a rambling discussion of Oldsmobiles our parents and grandparents owned (or engineered). Eventually, three of us made the video above. Like it? Maybe we can make more. Many awesome GM cars are definitely going unmentioned here, so please let us know your bests and worsts in the comments below. Mostly, it's important to note that this post largely exists as a vehicle for delivering the above video that dives far deeper into GM's greatest hits and biggest flops, specifically those from the 1980s and 1990s. What you'll find below is a collection of our editors identifying a best current and best-of-all-time choice, plus a worst current and worst-of-all-time choice. Comprehensive it is not, but again, comments. -Senior Editor James Riswick Best Current GM Vehicle Chevrolet Corvette We were flying by the seats of our pants a bit in this first outing and my notes were similarly extemporaneous. When it came time to tie it all together on camera, I failed spectacularly. Thank the maker for text, because this gives me the opportunity to perhaps slightly better explain my convoluted reasoning. I chose the C8 Corvette because it's simply overwhelmingly good, and it's merely the baseline from which this generation of Corvette will be expanded. While the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing (more on that in a minute) is an amazing snapshot of GM's current performance standing and its little sibling so enraptured me that I went out and bought one, their existence is fleeting. Corvette will live on; forced-induction Cadillac sport sedans, not so much. So while all three are amazing machines when viewed in a vacuum, the Corvette stands above them as both a reflection of GM's current performance credentials and a signpost of what is to come. So, given the choice between the C8 and the 5V-Blackwing right now, I'd choose the C8. In 10 years, when the Blackwing is no longer in production and Corvette is in its 9th generation? Well, that might be a different story. Now, just pretend I said something even remotely that coherent when we get to the part of the video where I try to make an argument for the 5-V Blackwing as best GM car I've ever driven. Or just laugh at me while I ramble incoherently.
Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.
