Up for sale is a very cool 1965 Pontiac Bonneville four door..
This car gets thumbs up and many looks everywhere it goes.. The car was
originally from Missouri and is extremely solid. The body was shot with a two part
epoxy primer that will not rust and is water tight.. You can leave it just like this without
the worry of ruining the body or having rust coming through even if you drive
right through rain storms. The motor in the car is a Pontiac 350 that has
been all rebuilt and comes with an Edelbrock intake and Holley carburetor... The transmission
is a Pontiac TH400 which shifts incredibly and is also believed to have been
rebuilt.. The car also has an aftermarket limited slip rear end..
The Bonneville came from the factory with many options including air conditioning,
power brakes, and power steering.. This thing goes down the road like a dream and has
had an alignment done last month... The car has beautiful mint condition front and rear seats
and has also had a new black carpet installed which looks fantastic.. The front passenger side
door panel is starting to loose the carpet at the bottom of the panel, but this can easily
be either fixed or replaced. The head liner is also starting to come apart in one spot on the passenger
side, see pictures.. I have the window sticker for this car from the Pontiac Historical Society and
this will also come with the purchase of the car.. The exhaust system is a new thrush exhaust and
sounds very mean. Hate to see this one go as it is such an incredible head turner, but a new
car purchase means it must.. This will make a great cruiser for someone and could even
be a daily driver since it is such a solid well built car. A non refundable deposit of $500 is due at the end
of the auction and the remainder of the purchase price must be received within seven days..
Feel free to ask any and all questions.. This one will not disappoint.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.
Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
