Many of our photos of this American Musclecar were taken at the Dallas Love Field Frontiers of Flight Museum, located only minutes from our showroom. You can fly high or fly low in this menacing Pontiac GTO.

This transformed GTO began life as a true 242 GTO in the Atoll Blue color, matching interior, and a black cordova top as is indicated on the identa-plate. It was built in 1969 and delivered to Coast Pontiac in December, 1969. In the intervening years, it saw Bakersfield, Chatsworth, and Almeda, California. In the mid 2000, the car spent some time in Arizona before arriving it Texas where it was purchased by its current owner in 2007 Sometime in this journey, the grand old Goat was changed to a Cardinal Red & Judge graphics added. This was a clean, rust free, and numbers-matching survivor.

The current owner had a different vision for the car. He set about to make it one of kind with supreme drivability, while maintaining the classic '70 GTO look. He also wanted to maintain the number's viability of the car. The original matching number 400 c.i. engine was removed and put into storage, replaced with a professionally built 1970 455 big block you will read about soon. This engine goes with the car.  The car was lifted off the frame and the work began.

The exterior paint and trim was done by Picasso's of Ft. Worth, Texas in midnight black with one capful of respberry metal flake added per quart. Following this was 4 coats of clear. The paint is stunning in sunlight and under display lights at car shows. The body itself was excellent prior to the paint and body work. This has always been a dry climate GTO.

Photobucket

Handling prowess is greatly improved thanks to extensive suspension modifications. The entire suspension was removed and replaced with a heavy duty Hotchkis TVS tubular suspension. In addition, a close-ratio power steering box was added to tighten up control to the steering wheel. The wheels of choice are polished Ansen Sport wheels sized at 235/60R15 up front and 255/70R17 out back, wrapped in classic B.F. Goodrich Radial T/As.

This powerplant was machined, align-honed, balanced and blueprinted during the build. It was bored at .060 over and fitted with JE pistons. The cam of choice is a COMP CAMS 51-223-4 complete with all recommended parts. The cylinder headers were rebuilt and hardened valve, guides, etc. were installed. A March Serpentine Belt system has been installed to connect all of the chromed components, along with many more unique features. To enhance the look under the hood, the firewall was blanked and the old style air conditioning compressor was replaced with a polished gen 3 unit from Cool Air of Ft. Worth, Texas.  The controls for the A/C were adapted to tie to the original Pontiac levers and switches. The alternator, power steering pump resevoir, and water pump are chromed. The hoses were replaced with stainless steel braided units. All brake, fuel, and other fluid lines are stainless or chromed and meticulously attached to the frame to ensure they stay in place. Also, the battery was re-located to the trunk and a there is a hidden master kill switch. An MSD 6AL provides the spark duties. Induction is courtesy of a Demon 650 carburetor atop an aluminum Edelbrock intake. Custom ceramic-coated headers flow through a custom dual exhaust system.

There is a lot of detail throughout this GTO.

This engine shows very well and the car performs the same. The transmission of choice is a built TH400 automatic with hardened components to handle the increased horsepower and toque. To further increase driveability and performance, a Gear Vendor, model 3D400, 750 horsepower over/underdrive was added. This is a very special item. When engaged, the underdrive fucntion turns the Mosier 342 Truetrac (33-spline) into a 451. Equally amazing is the fact that when the overdrive function is engaged at 75 to 80mph, the RPM's drop from approximately 3,750 to 1,900. This lets you cruise down the highway at about 75mph and still get 14 miles per gallon. Should you decide to pass, hit the discreetly located spitter swtich on the floor next to the headlight dimmer. From the transmission to the rear end is an extra heavy duty drive shaft specially fabricated to accommodate the Gear Vendor apparatus. Again, the owner retained the original matching numbers transmission that will be included.

The interior has been restored in Pontiac 254 red, all padding and materials replaced. the combination of the red interior, black paint and judge graphics is striking to say the least. Before any of this was done, the car was fitted with Dynamat Extreme insulation throughout every piece of metal in the cabin except the firewall.

Since completion, the car has been entered in one show, the Dallas, Texas 2010 Muscle on Muscle event, where it took Best of Show.

This is a beautiful interior. The bucket seating is paired with a factory center console.

Before this car was painted and re-worked, extreme steps were taken to ensure the sound system would be fully enjoyed.

Six custom Apline SPX 17Pro speakers have been retro-fitted throughou the cabin for the ultimate in audio experience. This speakers are driven by a pair of PDX 600Watt amplifiers.

This massive 'Knight Rider' KITT model costs over $1,400

Tue, May 18 2021

A new model of the famed Pontiac Firebird from the 1980s TV show Knight Rider is here, and it's massive. The shadowy flight into the dangerous world of this subscription-based kit by DeAgostini will result in a car that measures nearly two feet long, cost more than $1,400, and take you over two years to complete. For years, subscription-based model kits have been a tradition for hobbyists in Europe and Asia. Should you sign on, each week you'll receive a package in the mail that includes a few parts for the model and some literature on the subject. Usually there are additional collectibles and accessories, like a display case. The DeAgostini KITT kit, for example, begins with the hood for the first issue. The asymmetric bulged and scooped body panel comes with a several smaller body pieces and a small screwdriver. Issue two comes with the front fascia, KITT's red scanner light, and three of the six driving lights. Issue three gives you a tire, wheel and brake components for one of the four corners. And so it goes. When all is said and done, you'll receive 110 such packages over a span of so many weeks. In other words it'll take two years and one-and-a-half months to complete the black, 1:8 scale Pontiac. There are some discounted prices for the first few issues to get you hooked, but once you get settled in the regular price for each issue is ˆ10.99 ($13.36 USD). Here's a preview the 16-page pamphlet that accompanies the first issue. By the end, you should have a pretty comprehensive compendium of the Knight Rider series as well. The issues are available on newsstands, but subscribers get additional gifts — two 1:43 scale models, one of KITT and one of his nemesis KARR. And for an additional ˆ1.00 per issue, you'll receive an acrylic display case. As for the Knight Industries Two Thousand itself, the car appears to be incredibly detailed. As depicted on the DeAgostini website, the hood, doors, trunk and T-top roof panels all open. The red scanner lights up, the rear license plate rotates for three options, and there even seems to be a watch that commands the model to speak some of KITT's catch phrases. Knight Rider — or Supercar as it was called in Italy — told the episodic story of a former police officer, Michael Knight, who fought crime with his A.I.-powered car. As such, the TV car and the the model have a heavily computerized (by 1980s standards) dashboard and yoke steering wheel.

GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible

Wed, Aug 1 2018

The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?

GM recalling 70k Chevy Malibus, Pontiac G6s over steering issue

Sun, Feb 15 2015

A problem with the power steering system in the Chevy Malibu and Pontiac G6 has prompted General Motors and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall for an estimated 69,633 vehicles. The issue revolves around the electric power steering assist, which could suddenly fail and increase the risk of a crash, especially at low speeds where the power steering is most helpful. The recall affects 2006-2007 Chevy Malibu sedans and Malibu Maxx wagons (specifically those manufactured between April 1, 2006, and June 30, 2006), as well as the Pontiac G6 (which was offered as a sedan, coupe or convertible) from the same model years and manufactured from April 18, 2006, to June 30, 2006. Owners of the affected units can expect to hear from the manufacturer with instructions to bring in their vehicles to their local dealers to have the torque sensors in the power steering system replaced. RECALL Subject : Sudden Loss of Electric Power Steering , 1 INVESTIGATION(S) Report Receipt Date: FEB 04, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V064000 Component(s): STEERING Potential Number of Units Affected: 69,633 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2006-2007 Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx vehicles manufactured April 1, 2006, to June 30, 2006, and 2006-2007 Pontiac G6 vehicles manufactured April 18, 2006, to June 30, 2006. In the affected vehicles, there may be a sudden loss of electric power steering (EPS) assist that could occur at any time while driving. CONSEQUENCE: If power steering assist is lost, greater driver effort would be required to steer the vehicle at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the torque sensor assembly, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020 or Pontiac customer service at 1-800-762-2737. GM's number for this recall is 14772. Note: This is an expansion of recall 14V-153 to cover additional vehicles built between April 1, 2006 and June 30, 2006. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
