Pendergrass, Georgia, United States

1970 Pontiac GTO, California Survivor, numbers matching.   Original 400 with 350 horse power.  Original owners manual and California Pink Slip included.  Factory 10 bolt rear end.  Car has factory air, power steering, power brakes, automatic, am radio.  I put on a period correct Rochester carb.  The factory original carb is in a box in the trunk, which is included in the sale to the future owner.  Engine bay is very well maintained and looks great.  Car drives well and has plenty of power.  Tires are full of tread and wheels are in beautiful condition.  The Enduro bumper is in excellent condition.  Interior is fresh, clean, no tears, rips.  Front and back seats have all original factory seat belts in car.  Front seats have two factory belt buckles, one for the shoulder strap and one for the lap belt.  Headliner is in very good condition with no rips or tears.  Trunk is in excellent shape with no rust issues and includes the factory bumper jack and the original small tire which has never been used.  Inside of the trunk looks great!  Interior and exterior are in very good condition for a 44 year old car.  The car has factory glass throughout, original T3 headlights, factory paint still in door jams, trunk and inside engine bay.  Somewhere along the way the master cylinder was replaced.  Undercarriage is solid and in good condition.  Car had one light re-spray years prior to me purchasing it.  This is as rust free as you will find.  When I purchased the car in 08, I was told that the car has some lead bleeding through the right and left seams where the quarter panels join the roof.  It can be seen.  I will include a picture.  It has NOT gotten worse since 2008.  Also, this car has the original metal dealer drive out tag.  Roc Cutri was the GMC dealer where the car was purchased in 1970.  Roc Cutri GMC has long since closed, but you can still see their dealership history on the internet.  

The downside to this car is the dash.  California heat split the top left in two places and one place almost in the middle.  I will include pictures of the cracks.  I intended to send the dash out to be restored, but it never took top priority.  I had to leave something left to do.  What fun are they, if there's nothing left to work on?  That's my opinion. 

I keep it in a dehumidified garage. The collector before me also kept this car in a dehumidified garage.    It is one of a few original survivors.  Some like a restored car, but this car hasn't been restored.  This car is like it came off the lot.  You can restore cars as many times as you want, but they're only original once.  This car is for the person that still wants an original and they want to do a few minor things for a hobby, while enjoying a beautiful, stock 70 California, GTO. 

I have the original California Pink slip for this car which will be included in the sale.

Also, this is a rare 1970 California emission equipped car with the original California emissions canister.  Based on one Pontiac guru, this canister is a rare piece and not reproduced.  He said the first thing people did when they bought a California GTO with the canister was to trash it.  Now they're extremely expensive and hard to find for a 1970 California GTO, which he said makes for a more rare GTO.  Hagerty magazine did an article regarding California muscle cars and discussed the cost and rarity of these 1970 canisters. 

The Pontiac legend, Jim Wangers took a short drive in my car at the 2008 Year One Experience.  After driving and checking out this GTO, Mr. Wangers wrote the following on the car's radiator cover.  "Hey Bud... Hang on to this beautiful 70, it's a "Real Survivor"!  signed, Jim Wangers08.  Mr. Wangers also pointed out factory chalk marks on the fire wall.  If you look you can still see the mark.  I will include pictures of what Mr. Wangers wrote and a picture of him sitting in the driver's seat.  

I'm going to try to post a video on YouTube so people can hear and see the car running.  It runs great and cranks perfect every time.  I changed the oil with Mobil 1 and added a bottle of Z-Max to the motor. 

I've been long winded, but I've done my best to honestly describe my GTO.  Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.  Please keep in mind this is a 44 year old car and it comes with no warranties.

Write or call me with any questions you have and I will respond quickly.   I'll be happy to show it to any serious buyers or agents.   Bud  706-983-0357

Shipping is the buyer's responsibility.  $500 deposit within 48 hours.  Full payment expected in 7 days after auction ends.  Funds must clear before I will release the car and pink slip.   I will provide the winning bidder with a bill of sale and the pink slip, which is the title in California.  Thanks!

Porsche Syberia RS rally car is what you make when you need a Hummer that's fast

Fri, Apr 24 2020

Some history: The Porsche 911's first-ever race was the 1965 Monte Carlo rally, entered because Porsche's PR man at the time wanted to show how much the future icon could do. A year later, Porsche began selling an optional rally kit for the 911 that included Recaro seats, a roll bar, and adjustable Koni dampers. Porsche produced factory rally racers until the early 1970s, winning Monte Carlo three times in a row before letting privateers carry the torch so the factory could focus on campaigning in the East Africa Safari. After years of painful lessons, when Porsche took its brand-new 1978 911 SC to the safari, the 3.0-liter flat-six coupe was hours away from winning the race before damaging the suspension, demoting the car to second place. Porsche fans wanted their own replicas, and finding the new 911 to be an affordable option, the SC — built from 1978 to 1983 — went from denoting "Super Carrera" to "Safari Car."   Porsche took a big step up in with the 953 rally car. Built to win the 1984 Paris-Dakar, which it did, the 953 introduced the four-wheel-drive system Porsche would evolve for the 959 in 1985 and the 964-series 911 in 1989, as well as the now-unforgettable 911-based Rothmans livery. All of this is what's fueling today's 911 Safari Car revival around the world. Almost all of today's builds start with the so-called G Model 911s, produced from 1973 to 1989, usually focusing on the SC and the Carrera that ran from 1984 until 1989.  Fast forward to 2007 when a mysterious crew organized the TransSyberia Rally, a "sports-touring" event that stretched 4,500 miles from Moscow to the capital of Mongolia, Ulaanbaatar. Of the 34 vehicles that entered, 25 were Porsche's purpose-built Cayenne S Transsyberia Edition.  Put this all in a pot and you have the beginnings of the car that brings us here, the Syberia RS. It's said that a German fellow by the name of Kai Burkhard wanted to buy a Humvee, but the low top speed, around 50 miles per hour, put him off. So instead, he imported a 1986 911 "in collector condition" from Japan with the idea of rebuilding it to provide almost all the off-road fun he could have had in the H1. Burkhard tapped the Tailor Made department at German suspension designer H&R, and the two set to work creating a build like the 953 Dakar winner.  This content is hosted by a third party.

Junkyard Gem: 1991 Pontiac 6000 LE

Sat, Dec 2 2017

Sibling to the Chevrolet Celebrity and Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, the Pontiac 6000 sold pretty well during the early-to-middle 1980s, but had been relegated to the dealership bargain bin and fleet-car cul-de-sac by the time of Operation Desert Shield. Here's a final-year-of-manufacture 6000 LE that I photographed in an Arizona self-service wrecking yard. This car was sold new in Arizona, and it will be crushed in the same state, 26 years later. The LE was the cheapest trim level for the 6000 in 1991, but the original purchaser of this car sprang for a few options. For example, instead of the utterly miserable 2.5-liter Iron Duke four-cylinder, this car packs the 3.1-liter V6. That meant 140 horsepower instead of 110, plus an engine note more like a vacuum cleaner sucking up a spaghetti spill than an ailing blender chewing on walnuts. AM, FM, and cassette. Not only that, but the auto-reverse feature meant that your mixtape cassette wouldn't stop right in the middle of your favorite Roxette tune. This content is hosted by a third party.

Even the wretched Daewoo-built Pontiac LeMans gets more screen time than the forgotten 6000 in this 1991 TV ad featuring the voice of Captain Picard.

Rent the 1967 Pontiac GTO from the XxX films now on Turo

Tue, Jan 10 2017

The process of renting a car usually ranges from mildly annoying to "I'm calling corporate to get you fired." Plainly, it sucks, but sometimes you're left with no alternative. Turo, a peer-to-peer carsharing network, has created what's essentially the AirBnB for cars. Like AirBnB, the quality and variety of the rides varies based on location. If you're in Tucson, Ariz., in the next week, go check out this 1967 Pontiac GTO convertible before the release of XxX: The Return of Xander Cage. Promotions and marketing aside, this is still the opportunity to drive one of the original muscle cars. It's not clear if this is an original GTO or a Pontiac Tempest that was converted, but does it really matter? Old cars never drive as well as you hope, so, as long as it looks and sounds awesome, who cares? The owner listed on Turo is Xander C., Vin Diesel's character from the XxX franchise. This is the car that was used in the original 2002 film, and from the photos it appears to be in better shape than many other movie cars. The exterior is mostly stock, with some slight modifications to the lighting, wheels, exhaust, and trim, with the addition of a funky looking hood scoop that the listing claims shoots flames. It's not clear if it functions as an actual intake because there aren't any notes about what rests under the hood. The listing does ask for premium fuel, so more than likely it's some variation of a high-compression V8. Inside, the dashboard looks like someone raided the AutoZone accessory aisle. There are gauges, dials, toggle switches, and readouts galore. The listing also claims the Goat is packing a rocket launcher and a weapons stash under the seat. $999 per day isn't cheap, but it's less than you'd pay for a day with one of the rent-an-exotic shops you see in Los Angeles or New York. If you're not in Tucson or the price is a little too steep, Turo has what it's dubbed the Adrenaline Collection. The name may be hyperbole, but the lineup of cars is actually really solid. A quick glance reveals a 2015 Lamborghini Huracan, 2001 Ferrari 360 Spider, and a 1969 Jaguar E-Type. The car list keeps expanding, so if this proves popular, look for more cool stuff in the future.
