The Bad....

Needs exhaust from headers back, leaf springs, parking brake cables, rear shocks, gas tank and lines. Interior is in good shape, will need new seat buns, carpet and the normal TLC that goes with restoring a 44 year old car. Will need all weatherstripping.

Trans pan is leaking at gasket but new pan and gasket is included. The timing chain cover crank seal leaks a little. Car needs a speedo cable. The rear turn signals and brake lights do not function correctly because there is a 1968 under dash harness currently installed, I installed a new turn signal cam correct for 1969 and the connector on the under dash harness does mate as it should. Previous owner installed and alarm and sliced into harness. These two reasons is why I included a used 1969 harness. I also installed a new tail light wire harness. The fuel gauge does funtion correctly. Would recommend changing starter becasue of hot start problem when car has been driven and then turned off sometimes the starter will not crank until engine/exhaust cools down.

I described car to the best of my knowlegde and car is sold AS-IS. Car is available for showing if needed.

I will only accept Bank wire transfer or cash in person. Buyer is responsible for all shipping fees and arrangments. Please discsuss any payment/shipping issues prior to bidding... Thanks

This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

How 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?

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.
