what i know about 1966 pontiac`s you could write on a postage stamp. so if you are reading this then i am sure you know way more than me about this kind of antique car.this old girl belongs to a guy that works for me and he has no computer so i am listing it on his behalf. i heartily encourage you to come see and drive the old girl if at all possible, its a good solid old car. so, up for auction is this really cool 1966 bonneville hard top with a GREAT original interior. she has a great big 389 ci V8 in her which runs GREAT and and without any rattles, knocks or smoke. the old girl has a good exhaust and the tires have good tread. she has some great options and is fitted with A TILT STEERING column which has a REALLY GOOD ORIGINAL STEERING WHEEL, remote control drivers door mirror, power trunk release, factory power antenna, fender skirts and factory A/C, power steering and power brakes. the panel at the bottom of the back glass does have some small rust out but it will be a very easy fix, please see the close up picture`s. the floor pans are all very SOLID. the rocker panels are also solid as a rock, i should know because i jumped up and down on them!! there is some evidence of old old bodywork midway up the quarter panel`s, on right rear door and the left front fender. but it must have been done donkeys years ago. i got the best pictures i could but its hard to capture as the sunlight reflects off of the gold paint. i took the trunk mat out to show you that the trunk floor will need a little repair, i would say its about 80% solid. but from underneath and looking up i can see that the the inner quarter panels and the outer edges of the trunk pan look really good. the gas tank needs some heavy repair work or maybe just replace it. the frame rails are all very good, just a little surface rust thats it. the underside lip of trunk lid and the hood lip are in really nice condition. the A/C is all complete and original as far as i can tell and everything is still hooked up, i am sure its still on R12.

the local pontiac guru liked the car a lot and he really knows these cars, he has grand prix`s, a GTO and a catalina convertible, all nice cars and a credit to him.

the reserve is set low, to where my guy is only losing his shirt and not his first born child, LOL.
 
right now the old girl will crank right up and drive around the yard or onto a trailer with the engine running off of a one gallon gas can under the hood. but she has not been on the road for a couple of years and the brakes are way low. the new owner will need to trailer the old girl away. i can provide a shipping quote if you give me the town you live in and the zip code. if you have any questions, want to make an offer or need more pictures please email. or you can call me on 864 616 6860 up until 10 pm east coast time. shipping over sea`s is no problem at all and charleston port is only 4 hours east of me. i have already shipped antique cars to england, germany, sweden and australia. the old girl came out of georgia which is a non title state for any vehicle this old. she will be sold on a bill of sale only. the original keys are with the car. i had to click one of the boxes under 'title' so i clicked clear as there was nothing there pertaining to non title states. 

i am sure i am missing things here as i am not that familiar with this kind of car so i encourage you to call or better yet stop by and see the car in person. any inspection is welcome and we can put her up on a lift so you can have a really good look underneath.

to sum up, this is a really solid original car that will be a really fun cruiser for the summer without spending much money. what needs to be done can be accomplished by anyone with some hand tools and a little bit of mechanical knowledge. a few weekends work will have this baby purring down the highway.  

FULL PAYMENT IN THREE DAYS. the ONLY methods of payment are CASH IN PERSON or a BANK WIRE TRANSFER. no other type of payment will be accepted and if you cannot comply with these simple terms then simply do not bid. thanks and good luck y`all.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

GM doing fine at retaining Pontiac owners

Fri, 28 Oct 2011

This isn't the first time we've reported positive news about General Motors retaining former Pontiac owners. Get a few more stories like this latest report from Edmund's Auto Observer, and it will mark an ongoing positive trend for GM. Edmunds.com crunched the numbers to see how well the General is hanging on to customers after shutting out the lights at Pontiac, and it found that nearly 40 percent of Pontiac owners stayed with a vehicle from a General Motors brand.
The numbers are a little lower than an earlier R.L. Polk & Company study, but Edmunds says General Motors is keeping more former Pontiac buyers than it has since 2007. Most are turning to vehicles from Chevrolet, especially during January and February of 2011, when GM incentivized Pontiac owners to stay under the umbrella. Those moves seem to have worked, and 28.1 percent of Pontiac owners trading up made the jump into a Bowtie.
Buyers that have gone elsewhere have largely stayed loyal to Domestic automakers, with Ford picking up the most conquests from Pontiac, with 9.4 percent switching. Toyota and Honda picked up 7.4 percent of the pool of former Pontiac drivers. The numbers are defying any predictions that Pontiac buyers would completely exit the General Motors fold, and have climbed up closer to parity with the retention figures of other GM brands from a 2009 low of only 16 percent retention.

This Auto Aerobics car art ties our brains in knots like pretzels

Sat, 14 Dec 2013

We like cars, and we like art. Naturally, Chris Labrooy's Auto Aerobics series - computer-generated images of some seriously contorted 1968 Pontiac Bonnevilles floating in mid-air - instantly clicked with us. If the Pontiacs weren't floating or hollow, we could be fooled into believing the image is real. But where's the fun in that?
Check out the gallery we included of Labrooy's Bonneville art, and feel free too head over to his website for some Formula One humor.
