 1971 Pontiac GTO Complete owner history back to the day it was ordered by an air force academy grad named thomas arizmendi (whose name is on the protect-o-plate).
The car was built the month of june at the Fremont California plant and delivered to Johnson Pontiac in Colorado Springs. It was then prepped and picked up by it's new owner August 17th 1971.
Total invoice price with options was $4422.65.With his military discount of $658.65 his out the door price was $ 3878.03.
His new GTO didn't sit still long after graduation he drove his new Pontiac from Colorado Springs to Boston...then onto San Antonio Texas and ended his trip in Sacramento CA.Then a year of flight training-then assigned to Clark AFB in the Phillipines ...Thomas could not take his GTO with him so it was put up for sale in April of 1973.By that time the car had covered 24,000 miles and was in excellent condition.
Purchased by another GI in California it stayed there until 1984 then onto Grand Forks North Dakota until 1986 then moving to Witchita Kansas and staying there until June 2006.
By 2006 the GTO had accumulated 99,139 well cared for miles.That is when I purchased the car. The odometer now reads 99,298 miles....So in the last 7 years it has covered 159 miles-all going to local car shows.
This car is a real time capsule... totally unmolested-totally unabused and well cared for it's entire life.
The Cameo white paint is in amazing condition as is the interior right down to the GM floor mats that cost $13.65 when delivered.
Safe-T-Track rearend
G70 14 fiberglass tires WL
AM-FM Stereo Radio
Console /Bucket Seats

Very few changes were done to this car thru the years but include
RA III exhast manifolds were added
Correct Delco cassette player
The engine has never been apart with the exception of a Timing chain replacement at about 85,000 miles which included lifters-all GM replacement parts.
If you ever wondered what a 1971 GTO would have driven like in 1971 this the car.2 pumps and it starts right up-no smoke-no drama-no noises ...very quiet inside no air leaks.The doors close with a nice solid sound-just like it did when it left the factory.
I have restored cars and cars that have never been touched....but there is something about a car that has never been apart-they just feel different and drive different.
They are only original once and it makes a difference.
All paperwork included
Build sheet
Dealer invoice
Protect-O-Plate
PHS Documents
Glove box Folder with all hand outs
2 pages of owner documented history
It's time for someone else to be the caretaker of this rare Pontiac.
Thanks for looking

Junkyard Gem: 2006 Pontiac Solstice

Wed, Sep 4 2019

The debut of the Pontiac Solstice, back in 2005 for the 2006 model year, stirred up much excitement in the automotive world. Sales were brisk at first, and then they weren't so great… and then Pontiac itself went under The General's cost-cutting axe. One thing I have learned during my junkyard travels is that even sought-after sports cars eventually reach a point at which they start showing up in the big self-service junkyards. For example, the BMW Z3 began appearing in such yards about five years ago, along with the Audi TT. While the Honda S2000 still appears to be exempt from this process, today's Junkyard Gem shows that the time has now come for the Pontiac Solstice/Saturn Sky. The first Z3s and TTs I saw in the U-Wrench-type yards were crash victims, not worth fixing, and that's the case with this Solstice. In a few more years, I'll start seeing the occasional Solstice/Sky discarded due to general worn-outness. Someone grabbed all the undented front body parts and the transmission (these items, presumably, being valuable), but no junkyard shoppers have felt like pulling the non-turbo 2.0-liter Ecotec. The interior seems dirty, probably from exposure to the elements while sitting outdoors in this Colorado Springs wrecking yard, but not in bad shape otherwise. Perhaps the car's owner celebrated a return from Iraq with the purchase of a sporty new Pontiac, 13 years ago. These cars have an enthusiastic following, so I wasn't expecting to see a junked one so soon after production ceased. I felt the same way about the Chrysler Crossfire, however, and I found two of those last year. What's next, a 2002-2005 Thunderbird? This content is hosted by a third party.

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?

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
