CONVERTIBLE

TRIBUTE

 

Pictured for sale is a beautiful and detailed tribute convertible of a 1965 Pontiac GTO with a rebuilt 1971 Pontiac 400 c.i. engine.  Car started its transformation from Tempest to a GTO in the late 1980’s and was completed with the current owner in the mid-1990’s (see photos at body shop).  Since its completion the Pontiac has been driven only 40,000 miles, never driven in bad weather, and always garaged.  Owners have receipts for all work which was ever performed on the car.

 

SPECIFICATIONS;

 

Body:  1965 GTO (tribute) was painted a (DuPont) Ford Twilight Blue with a new white convertible top with a Plexiglas rear window. Landau cover matches the interior (see photo).  All of the chrome is in good condition.  There are some pits in the tail lights, all of the other pieces are VG.  There is no rust coming through the body on this car and the paint is approximately 20 years old. Unfortunately, a few scratches developed over the years (see photos).  All of the glass is perfect. This car has never been abused or in an accident.

 

Engine:  1971 Pontiac 400 was rebuilt in 1994 to stock specs with a Rochester 750 Quadrajet and a mild Pontiac performance cam.  GTO still retains the original style “points” ignition. Oversized radiator was added to keep the car running cool.  Items recently replaced include the gas tank, fuel lines, battery, and starter.

 

Transmission:  1971; stock 3-speed automatic, 350 Turbo Hydramatic .  Transmission was rebuilt at the same time as the engine.

 

Rear Differential and suspension; Original 1965 Pontiac 10 bolt “open” rear with 3:23 gears.  New front sway bar, bushings, and ball joints.  Power drum brakes have less than 10,000 miles since being replaced and rebuilt.  

 

Interior:  Complete restoration, including the door panels, seat covers, and carpeting.  Original dash was maintained with all working gauges. Additions include; the Pontiac vacuum gauge on the console, aftermarket oil pressure, temperature, and volt meter. In dash/original style AM-FM radio & cassette player, power antenna, and clock all work too.

 

Tires and Wheels;  14” Pontiac “rally” wheels custom painted (including the spare) to match the white and blue exterior.  Tires are by Dunlop with 205 70SR 14 up front and 245 60SR 14 in the rear. 

 

 

PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM LISTING THIS GTO TRIBUTE FOR A FRIEND.  DIRECT ALL QUESTIONS TO ME VIA EMAIL (jkurzmann@yahoo.com) OR BY CELL PHONE @ 410-937-0719.  A VIDEO OF THE CAR IS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. 

 

CAR IS SOLD AS IS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY.

There's a 'Knight Rider' movie in development

Mon, Aug 17 2020

James Wan, who has directed films from the first "Saw" to "Aquaman," with "Furious 7" in between, and produced even more projects, is producing a new Knight Rider movie according to a report in Deadline. Just in case there's a reader who doesn't know, Knight Rider was one of the seminal trio of iconic-car shows from the 1980s, along with "The Dukes of Hazzard" and "Miami Vice." The series lasted 90 episodes that ran from 1982 to 1986, following the crime-fighting exploits of Michael Knight, a man who crusaded for justice after being shot in the face. Billionaire Walton Knight hired Michael to work with the Knight Foundation, where Michael helps develop the Knight Industries Two Thousand, a Pontiac Trans-Am with AI that can talk, drive more than 200 miles per hour, and could teach MI6's Q Branch about gadgetry. Collider described David Hasselhof's Michael Knight as "crimefighter by trade and wearing-a-leather-jacket-with-no-shirt-underneath innovator by hobby." The show made such an impression that there was a series spinoff called "Code of Justice," two TV movies in 1991 and 1994, a convention called KnightCon, and a series reboot on NBC that lasted for one season from 2008 to 2009, as well as stores full of action figures and models and literature, YouTube fan-made trailers and movies, and this wacky German-dubbed short "Knight Rider" film starring Hasselhoff. We don't know anything about the new movie's plot yet, other than that it's set in the present. T.J. Fixman, better known for now as a video game writer who worked on franchises like "Ratchet and Clank" and "Resistance: Fall of Man," has been attached to write, with a mandate to keep "the anti-establishment tone of the original." With matters still early in development there's no telling when the movie will hit theaters, and Wan's probably got his hands busy with the new MacGuyver reboot for CBS, anyway. Now that there's already been a Knight Industries 2000 and 3000, that gives us plenty of time to imagine — in a world where 200-mph hypercars powered by everything sprout like weeds and even Cannonballers are using military-like equipment — what would a Knight Industries Four Thousand possess? And would it be called KIFT? Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.

Junkyard Gem: 2001 Pontiac Aztek

Tue, Jul 11 2017

Ah, the Pontiac Aztek. Everyone laughs at the Aztek ... except, apparently, for Coloradans who like to go camping, bike riding, hiking, and all that outdoorsy stuff that folks do in the Centennial State. You'll see Azteks being driven, unironically and without shame, all over the place in the Denver region, and now plenty of them are showing up in the local wrecking yards. Here's a first-year-of-production example in its final campground. These minivans or crossovers (or however the experts finally decided to categorize them) had built-in air compressors, audio controls in the rear cargo area, and other features meant to enhance tailgating, camping, and other activities deemed central to Generation X's allegedly active lifestyle. You could even get an optional camping kit with a tent that attached to the rear of the Aztek. So, it was a General Motors minivan-like vehicle, cousin of the weird-looking Dustbusters of the 1990s, with lots of useful features for those who did more than just commute to work and drop off kids at school. Unfortunately for GM, the Aztek was staggeringly ugly, and Generation Xers were too damned broke to buy new cars in 2001, anyway. I see plenty of them in Denver-area wrecking yards now, along with their slightly-less-offensive-looking Buick Rendezvous siblings, and so I decided to document one before they're all gone.
