This is an Ebay relist because of a winning bidder who states his bid was a hijack, and he never bid, which I feel is a lie.  I know the train of thought is that something is wrong with the car, but there is not, it is everything I state below. To reiterate, "0" transaction members bids will be cancelled without prior contact, and now if I feel a bidder is not truthful or "real", or have negative feedback/comments without resolve, I am going to have the discretion to cancel their bid. I like my auctions clean, fair, with a positive result. This is not a game, I will not kill this car with constant relisting, this is it. So again...

 Up for auction is this real 1970 GTO Judge hardtop. Full original matching numbers drivetrain, and loaded with nice options. Documented with PHS and original build sheet (just removed) from top of gas tank, and owners manual. Recently discovered and taken out of dry storage, sitting since 1984, this car is perfect to be restored, or drive as is. The original Ram Air WS engine, 4 speed transmission, and 3.23 safe-t-track rear differential are present. 

The factory option list on this car is impressive. Delivered to Eddie Ruch Pontiac, Inc. in Wheaton, IL, this car was ordered with: Granada Gold exterior, Sandalwood interior, Sandalwood cordova top, 4 speed transmission, console, power windows, air conditioning, power bucket seat, rally gauges with in-dash tach, am/fm radio, 8-track stereo tape player, formula steering wheel, remote mirror, power disc brakes, power steering, safe-t-track, front and rear floor mats, luggage lamp, G70x14 white letter tires, The Judge, soft ray glass, and ride and handling package. 

Factory air conditioning, power windows, 4 speed, and lots of power options, is pretty rare find on a '70 Judge!

Original VIN stamped engine, #12 cylinder heads, original intake, and ram air exhaust manifolds. Distributor is a '70 GTO 350 hp unit, the voltage regulator and horn relay are original. Quadrajet carburetor is a '70 GTO #7040264, alternator, and starter are not original. A/C compressor and brackets are missing. The engine appears to have been rebuilt/repainted. Original VIN stamped transmission, working back drive lock linkage, and XF coded rear differential.

Upper and lower ram air pans are present, upper is the steel original, lower is an early fiberglass repro, assuming early 1980's. The air cleaner lid is also a replacement.  The ram air cable bracket is still under the dash, though the cable and flapper assembly in the hood are missing. 

The interior is original, with factory shifter, console, and Judge glovebox door. Headliner and visors are nice with no tears or holes, all the original seat belts in place. The power driver seat, 8-track player, radio and horn button are missing. The driver seat cover has rips and wear, passenger seat has some wear, rear is fine.  The carpet had been changed to black, and '71 GTO sport rear view mirrors added, probably with the old yellow paint job, done prior to '84.  The dash pad is cracked on the top, and the radio area had been cut for an aftermarket stereo with 6x9 speakers in the rear. 3 original dated Rally II wheels still in place, and one '72 wheel are on the car. Belted TA tires are new from '84, but flat spotted.

The body, and frame, are overall very clean and solid. There is some rust in the rear 1/4 panels, and wheel openings. Normal dings and imperfections in some panels, not terrible. The worst rust is in the driver side floor, it is rusted through, but not in the toe kick area or under the seat. Trunk floor and jamb is very solid, clean and nice. The trunk lid is rusted on the lower edge/lip. The fenders look to have been repaired, and patched, assuming dented and repaired too. The rear bumper is in decent shape, the doors are solid, and usable, needing typical repairs. 

The car runs nice even after sitting for 30 years. Installed new tune up parts, brake work, fuel and coolant systems flush, it runs with no major ticks, knocks, or smoke. Tachometer, gauges, dash lights, turn signals, and power windows work, speedometer does not.

A rust free trunklid, and a mint complete sandalwood dash pad with an uncut dashboard will go with the purchase of the car. I also have many other nos parts needed if restoration is desired, but these parts are at an extra cost. 

Again, this car runs and drives, so if you desire an original, little rough around the edges real '70 Judge to fix and drive, here it is. If you want a very nice resto project that will result in one rare desirable car when done, this fits the bill.

Inspections, and questions are always welcome, and encouraged. Remember, bidders with "0" transactions, your bid will be cancelled unless you contact me prior to bidding. The car may sell locally, and I reserve the right to end the auction early

Thanks!

Remember when Pontiac made a Trans Am Kammback grocery getter?

Thu, Nov 8 2018

Despite muscle cars having strong reputations as some of the most impractical cars one can buy, they've occasionally had one of the most useful and practical features a car can sport: a hatchback. In the 1980s, General Motors' Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird had one, and it added respectable utility to the sports cars. But the people at GM thought they could make the F-Body cars even more useful. So, after a few clay-model experiments, Pontiac built three examples of an extended-roof 1985 Pontiac Trans Am Kammback concept. Spotted by GM Authority, one of these Trans Am Kammbacks (although "shooting brake" seems like the more apt descriptor) is going on the block at the Mecum Kissimmee auction in early January 2019. Reportedly only three of these prototypes/experiments/test mules were built to driveable specs, and this example, VIN No. EX4796, has additional history that might make it the ultimate example. According to Mecum, the show car, which has made appearances at numerous auto shows, also spent some time at the race track — just not as a participant. It was used as a pace car for PPG and IMSA racing and temporarily had a light bar and "two-way communications equipment." Following its pace duty, and after GM stopped the project from going any further, it was put into Pontiac Engineering's private collection for 13 years. Famous Michigan car collector and Pontiac dealership owner John McMullen then bought the car. He eventually sent it to Pontiac specialist Scott Tiemann for a full restoration to the gorgeous condition it is in today. As seen in the photos, the Trans Am features white paint over a gray leather interior. It houses a 5.0-liter V8 under the hood and has a five-speed manual transmission. The wild concept is rare enough to be super cool, but we can't help but think of an infinitely more practical, more modern, more powerful, and arguably more interesting car we'd rather have. Manual Cadillac CTS-V Sport Wagon in Black Diamond anybody? Or, if you don't care about the extra doors, perhaps the Callaway's Corvette AeroWagen is more applicable. Either way, we're in full support of any shooting brakes we can find. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Another Burt Reynolds Trans Am is up for auction

Wed, Jan 18 2017

Fans of Smokey and the Bandit, your car has arrived. This Saturday, January 21, Barrett-Jackson will auction a 1977 Pontiac Trans Am clone that, while not originally in the movie, was owned and signed by the Bandit himself, Burt Reynolds. Not only that, but it packs many modifications that should make this Pontiac drive the way we all imagined it did. This is a Trans Am clone, not an original. The car was built by Nebraska company Restore A Muscle Car, and started life as a lowly Firebird Formula. However, the company brought it up to Trans Am grade and beyond. Under the hood is a fuel-injected 8.2-liter V8 from Butler Performance that Restore A Muscle Car says produces 600 horsepower. Coupled to the big V8 is a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. There's even Hurst line-lock on-board, so this Trans Am should be perfect for on-demand burnouts. The car also comes with QA1 coil-over suspension, so it should corner better than the original, too. The outside looks roughly like a stock Trans Am, but it now has 18-inch wheels styled after those from the movie car, and the shaker scoop says "8.2" on each side. View 5 Photos In 2014, a 1977 Trans Am owned by Reynolds sold for a whopping $450,000. That car wasn't an actual movie car either, and lacked the modifications of this one. However, it was used as a promotional car and was given to Reynolds, so it did have some history with the film. This upgraded car is listed in the Barrett-Jackson catalog as "no reserve," so it's going home with a new owner on Saturday, regardless of price. Related Video:

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile

Sun, 29 Apr 2012

Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
