1963 Pontiac Catalina, 2 door hardtop, 389 V8, 700R 4 speed automatic, dual exhaust with glass pack mufflers, power steering, power brakes, factory A.C., red exterior with three color red interior. It has bench seats in the front and back. This vehicle has been beautifully restored inside and out.  All components of the vehicle are in good working order with the exception of the air conditioning which is non-functional. The power train, body and interior are all in excellent condition.

The vehicle has been stored winters and always garaged when in use. We use this vehicle as a Sunday driver and have participated in several local small town parades and car shows. We've owned this vehicle for 6 years and it has been an absolute joy to drive. This car turns heads and elicits many "thumbs up" and warm friendly greetings wherever we go. Our hope is to find another interested party who will enjoy this car as much as we have.

We have priced this vehicle several thousand dollars below fair market retail price. At our "buy it now" price, this vehicle is an excellent investment. It is currently insured with Hagerty Insurance at the “agreed upon” value of $20,000.00. Another independent valuation source is NADA Guides. Please see the link below showing the market value of our vehicle using this nationally recognized source. We estimated the condition of our vehicle to be comparable to the average retail value for the purposes of this guide.

We would encourage any interested buyer to pursue an independent inspection of their own before purchasing a classic automobile. When we purchased the vehicle from the previous owner, we paid a nominal fee to have it inspected by a trusted local mechanic in order to ensure it was worth the investment we were making. Even more important than the valuation, we wanted to be sure the vehicle was mechanically sound as it was 45 years old at the time. We were very pleased with the results of the inspection and made the purchase with no reservations. Over the last six years we’ve only needed to perform routine maintenance on the vehicle. 


We will also be advertising our vehicle locally and reserve the right to sell it to the first interested party who is willing to offer us our asking price of $17,995.00.

GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes

Mon, 31 Mar 2014

When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:

1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction

Mon, 01 Aug 2011

For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.

The largest among them covers 215,243 units of the Saturn Vue from 2002-2004 model years worldwide, 202,115 in the US. It's possible for the for the key to be removed even when the ignition isn't in the OFF position. The company knows of two crashes and one injury caused by this problem. Dealers are checking the parts and replacing the ignition cylinder and key set, if necessary.
Next is 72,826 models worldwide (48,059 vehicles in the US) of the 2013 Cadillac ATS four-door sedan, 2013 Buick Encore and 2013 Chevy Trax in Canada.

Both front, outboard lap belt pretensioners are being replaced, and a stop-sale is in effect on unsold models until the problem is repaired. There are no known crashes or injuries, though.
