Greenlawn, New York, Namibia
1967 PONTIAC GTO VIN: 242177G117289 THERE ARE OVER 80 HUGE IMAGES OF THIS STUNNING GTO SHOWN BELOW! DESCRIPTION: This NO RESERVE auction is for an incredibly sharp looking 1967 PONTIAC GTO sedan. This is a three owner car that was purchased on Long Island, New York in 1967, at Montauk Pontiac in Bayshore, and it has remained there ever since. The current owner has been in possession of the car for the last 23 years. The maroon exterior and black interior are the original colors that it came with and all of the bright work is brilliant! In addition to having the original bill of sale, the full PHS documentation was purchased and is provided. We believe that the odometer indicated mileage is correct. This 400 cubic inch 4 barrel car has a 10.75 compression ratio and it develops 335 horsepower. It was delivered with a turbohydramatic transmission with a his and hers shifter and a 3.36 rear axle. This frame off restored beauty is numbers matched down to all of the original sheet metal (some of the numbers are shown), including the trunk. The drive train is all original. The sandblasted frame and suspension parts are all POR coated along with anything else that was bare metal. The rear differential was also prepped and completely resealed. All bushings, lines, hoses, clips, new engine wiring harness, new gas tank and straps is only the beginning of what went into bringing this project back to life. Restoration of the seats belts alone was almost $1000, without installation. The washer bottle and nozzles are new, transmission cooler lines, hard top fuel line, battery cables and choke thermostat. The original radio and speaker were restored as was the wiper motor and carburetor. Other parts such as the fuel pump and all of the ignition parts were replaced along with the entire exhaust system. New hood hinges and springs were installed, new rear view mirrors inside and out. There are pages of small parts that were purchased and changed out to make this car both fun and safe to drive as well as extra good looking. If you think we overlooked something that should have been done, chances are it was. The transmission was serviced regularly and the top end of the engine was overhauled. The exterior and interior of this car is super straight and clean, the result of the extensive restoration project that touched on every aspect of the car. The paint job is gorgeous, accented with tasteful white pin striping. It has beautiful new wheels, beauty rings and new red line B.F. Goodrich radial tires. It recently passed New York State's Motor Vehicle Bureau rigid inspection for safety. We didn't want to bog you down with pages of useless GTO history and performance information, considering that most of the people looking at this Pontiac will know much more about it than we do. This PONTIAC GTO performed flawlessly when driven and everything works as well as designed, or better. No squeaks, rattles or other objectionable noises at all. It fires right up and there is no smoke or other gremlins as it warms up nicely and settles into a comfortable idle. All of the instruments work, as do the lights, wipers, horn and heater. It has been converted to full power disc brakes with a full kit from Master Power. That means you can actually stop this car if you happen to get going a little too fast. The few nits that we were able to pick is a very short list indeed including only a separation of the driver's side rear seat panel vinyl pulling away from the trim (shown). We will provide the new owner with PHS automotive services, inc. package and documetation with over 30 pages of detailed information and specifications about this particular vehicle. As with all of our eBay Motors listings we try to let our high resolution photographs tell the story about the vehicles that we are selling. All of the pictures you see were just taken and we have shots from many angles including the exterior, engine bay, full interior, trunk and undercarriage. This sedan is a magnificent looking and performing driver and the new owner will need only to get behind the wheel, fire it up, and drive away. If you study our clear multiple images very carefully, you will see exactly what this immaculate Pontiac GTO is all about. The clear multiple high resolution images of this car, shown below, will do a much better job of describing the look, style, condition and market value of this vehicle than our words ever could. Feel confident to fly in and drive this one back home. We invite questions and comments and there is NO RESERVE on this auction!

Pontiac could be a phoenix rising from the ashes
Tue, Apr 18 2017Of the deceased American car companies from the past 50 years such as Hummer, Mercury, Oldsmobile, Plymouth and Saturn, I believe the most worthy resurrection would be Pontiac. After all, it's no longer politically correct to drive an ex-military vehicle with single-digit gas mileage, nor do Millennials and Gen-Xers desire AARP-associated nameplates such as Mercury or Oldsmobile. Pontiac was originally founded in 1893 by Albert G. North and Harry G. Hamilton as the Pontiac Buggy Company, due to their location in Pontiac, Michigan. But as the early 1900s automotive revolution took off, they shifted their focus from horse-drawn carriages to motorized transportation. Taking a cue from Oakland County where they were based, they rebranded their organization as the Oakland Motor Company. Within a couple years, sales of Oakland cars were so good that it caught the attention of General Motors and they bought the company. In 1926, GM premiered the first Pontiac and its name drew inspiration from the legendary Native American War Chief, who was famous for the Battle of Bloody Run and opposition of British forces. His likeness was used in early promotional materials as well as the vehicle's emblem which was referred to simply as the "Indian Head". In 1956, the outdated emblem was replaced with a new, sleeker logo that resembled a red arrow head. It was known as "The Dart" and featured a singular star in the center which may have been a nod to Pontiac's successful Star Chief model. The 1960s saw the introduction of several popular models such as the GTO and the Firebird. The GTO was initially offered as an option package on the 1964 Tempest, and the name was the brainchild of John Delorean, who would later go on to form his own eponymous automobile company. The Firebird debuted in 1967 as a pony-car foil to Ford's award-winning Mustang. Although mechanically similar to Chevrolet's Camaro, the Firebird boasted a distinct sheetmetal nose and tail to help visually distinguish it. The 1980s were another adventurous time for Pontiac, and GM took advantage of the sales momentum by running a successful ad campaign. It proclaimed "We Build Excitement" and highlighted an arrangement with musicians Daryl Hall and John Oats. The fiery Fiero was a home-run for Pontiac and it was introduced in 1983 as an '84 model. Not only was it the first U.S. produced mid-engine sports coupe, but it also utilized lightweight, dent-resistant body panels.
700 horsepower Porsche GT2 RS is the wildest 911 ever
Fri, Jun 30 2017The Porsche 911 comes in a variety of flavors, each filling a certain taste for a certain customer. Sitting atop the range is the new 911 GT2 RS. In previous generations, the GT2 had a bit of a reputation as a widowmaker, a 911 with massive power that could snap and bite with the slightest agitation. Porsche says the new model has been civilized, but with 700 horsepower going to the rear wheels, we're sure it's going to be as mad as ever. Power comes from a highly massaged version of the 3.8-liter flat-six from the 911 Turbo S. The rear-mounted engine makes an outrageous 700 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. Like we previously reported, the new car will use water injection to help keep things cool. The only transmission is Porsche's PDK. While enthusiasts may lament the loss of the manual, the RS models have always been about performance above all else. Simply put, the PDK is the better performance option. All that power translates to a 0-60 mph time of 2.7 seconds and a top speed of 211 mph. The engine makes 80 more horsepower than the previous model. That makes it the most powerful road-going 911 ever built. In fact, the 887 horsepower 918 Spyder is the only road-going Porsche that makes more power. The fact that Porsche trusts all of that power to go to the rear is both thrilling and terrifying at the same time. In order to manage traction, the GT2 RS gets a number of upgrades. Rear-wheel steering has become commonplace in the 911 lineup, so it's no surprise to see it here. Sticky tires with 265/35 ZR 20 section rubber at the front and 325/30 ZR 21 section rubber at the rear keep things planted. That comically large rear wing adds downforce, adding to stability. The car gets standard carbon ceramic brakes. While some people prefer traditional rotors for the street, like the PDK, this is all about performance. A number of intakes and outlets complement the rear wing and maximize aerodynamic efficiency. It's a bit of a surprise that with all the focus on downforce, the GT2 RS still manages to top out at 211 mph. The hood, front wings, wheel housing vents, door mirrors, side air intakes, parts of the rear end, and a number of interior components are all made from carbon fiber. The roof has been made of magnesium. If you want to drop any pretense of civility and comfort in the pursuit of speed, Porsche is offering a Weissach package that shaves off another 40 pounds from the already impressive wet weight of 3,241.
Burt Reynolds' movie re-creations fetch $379,500 in Vegas
Wed, Oct 3 2018The recent death of Hollywood legend and automotive enthusiast Burt Reynolds helped drive up the value of four of his former cars from the 1970s and '80s, which sold last weekend at Barrett-Jackson's Las Vegas auction for a combined $379,500. Reynolds, who died Sept. 6 at age 82, had offered three Pontiac Trans Ams — two of them re-creations of the cars he drove in "Smokey and the Bandit" and "Hooper" and the third from 1984 used to promote his United States Football League team, the Tampa Bay Bandits. The fourth was a 1978 Chevrolet R30 pickup truck, styled like the one featured in "Cannonball Run." The "Bandit" re-creation, a 1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am that Reynolds ordered to be as "movie-correct" as possible but featuring a custom-built 200-4R automatic transmission, sold for $192,500. The car features a freshly built Pontiac 400 cubic-inch V8 mated to a four-speed automatic and featuring all-new Butler Performance parts and air-conditioning components. Reynolds reportedly said this was his favorite car from his films, and it even came with an authentic movie-correct CB radio and CB antenna. The red retro-rocket "Hooper" '78 Firebird, with a 403 cubic-inch V8 and a three-speed automatic, hammered for $88,000. By comparison, a gold 1978 Trans Am also offered at the Las Vegas auction but not connected to Reynolds fetched $27,500. The 1987 Chevy R30 pickup was a re-creation of the Indy Hauler pace truck seen jumping over a moving freight train in "Cannonball Run." It hammered for $49,500. The fourth car never appeared in any of Reynolds' films but is instead the only surviving example of two Trans Ams used to promote the Tampa Bay Bandits of the now-defunct USFL, having been driven out onto the field by Reynolds and his late friend and co-star, Jerry Reed, during opening day one season. It also sold for $49,500. At the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction in 2016, Reynolds accompanied a 1977 Trans Am used to promote "Bandit" onto the auction block. That car sold for $550,000.
