Mokelumne Hill, California, United States
|
1968 Production Numbers 2-dr Convertible Qty. Built: 16,960 As you can see this car is pretty rare. This car was professionally restored over 20 years ago, but you can't tell.
This care has been taken good care of. The car was originally Verado Green with Ivory white convertible top. The
trim was medium gold vinyl. The unit number is 8887 built in the 4th week of
June 1968 in Lordstown, Ohio plant. It is now blue with ivory white interior and power white convertible top.
All trim is there and works perfect. The car has been parked in my car trailer
for a year and a half so it will need a tune up. It has polished weld wheels, no rust. Tires were purchased new in 2009, they have white raised letters. Very oldschoolish. This car has been undercoated
underneath. It has cherry bombs that are cut off before the rear axle and
sounds awesome. The is a scrape on the
passenger front fender but no dent. She looks just like the 67 Firebird convertibe in the band named Train's video "Drive By". She has been featured on the show Wheel Dealer. I've owned the car since May
of 2008, but unfortunately due to financial issues I am forces to sell. The carpet and interior is like new. Everything works on it. Could use a new
rear and front bumper or just re-chromed. She is for sure a show winner. I am sadden that I have to part with her, she is a really great car. By the
way her name is Fergie. She has a clean title and is on non-operation right now. Buyer is responsible for shipping cost or pick up. The car is located in the
zip code of 95245. If you have any questions please ask before bidding. If you bid and win this
is a binding contract and buyer will be responsible for payment in full within
5 business days. JJ Best can finance the car if needed. You can hear what she sounds like. Here is the episode of Wheeler Dealer she was in. And here is the video from Train On Jun-12-14 at 19:45:10 PDT, seller added the following information: Here is another video of me pulling it out of the car trailer. |

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
Driving Notes
Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way
Tue, 21 Feb 2012There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.
Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative
Tue, 29 Oct 2013How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?
