SELLER REMARKS

Although the look is subdued, this 1971 Pontiac GTO hardtop is kind of a big deal. It's one of only 532 built with the big block 455, it's loaded with options, and thanks to a frame-up restoration it's one of the nicest of its kind that we've ever seen.


OK, so the Quezal Gold paint is the height of '70s funky, but for those of us who dig the oddballs, it only adds to this Goat's appeal. Look beyond the color, however, and you'll see a car that was very nicely restored starting with a solid original body, so the results are quite impressive. Crisp detailing shows off the "eyebrows" over the wheel arches, the deep shine of the two-stage urethane paint, and subtle GTO badging that makes this car something of a sleeper despite being 100% stock. The body-colored grille and bumper assembly gives the early '70s GTOs a unique high-performance look that matches up with the hood scoops immediately above for a very cool look. The black vinyl top was also replaced during the restoration using correct materials and the fit is extremely good with no wrinkles or popped seams. There's a bit of shiny trim on the car, including optional stainless fender trim (shown on the build sheet) and the bright window surrounds, and it's all quite nicely finished.


The black bucket seat interior is just as it was ordered and the nicely cushioned bucket seats are some of the most inviting chairs we've seen in a muscle car. They're correctly done and lightly used, so they're comfortable without being worn, and a center console between them makes this a very desirable car. The instruments are probably original and in good shape, with a trio of aftermarket gauges under the dash. Options include factory A/C that works properly, an 8-track player down low that will still play your favorite tapes from that garage sale, and an AM/FM radio in the dash. The back seat looks almost completely unused, the door panels are correct replacement pieces, and the carpets are protected by a set of black floor mats that blend invisibly into the background. Hit the button and the optional factory trunk release pops the deck lid where you'll find an optional luggage lamp as well as a matching spare tire and wheel package with jack assembly.


Only a handful of GTOs received the 455 cubic inch V8, and this one carries what appears to be a code YC service replacement block dated February 16, 1971, so it's period correct. It was restored with some invisible upgrades inside, including a bigger cam that has a nice lope, 6-6 head castings, and a mandrel-bent exhaust system that sounds awesome. It wears correct Pontiac Turquoise engine enamel, a chrome air cleaner lid and twin-snorkel body, and proper finishes on the bare metal parts. The original, numbers-matching TH400 3-speed automatic transmission was rebuilt and reinstalled, along with the original 12-bolt rear end which carries easy-cruising 3.07 gears on a Posi limited slip. It's impressively tidy underneath with signs of having been driven (it's a very reliable cruiser that finished the 2009 Power Tour), but nothing that should scare you away. And while the build sheet says it came with honeycomb wheels, who doesn't love the industrial-strength look of painted steelies with dog-dish hubcaps and a set of fat 245/60/15 front and 275/60/15 rear BFGoodrich radials?


Rare and fast are great descriptors of this awesome GTO, but the look is what really catches the eye. If you like unusual performance, this car definitely delivers. Call today!

GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns

Sun, 05 Oct 2014

Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.

GM recalling 778,000 Cobalts and G5s, six deaths reported

Thu, 13 Feb 2014

General Motors has announced that it will be recalling 778,562 compact cars after six people were killed in accidents, partially due to the airbags' failure to deploy. An issue with the ignition switch is causing the airbag issues, as well as causing the engine and other components to shut off without warning. The recall covers the 2005 to 2007 model year Chevrolet Cobalt and 2007 Pontiac G5. (Note that the Cobalt pictured above is a 2009 model.)
According to a report from Automotive News, a number of factors can cause the ignition to switch out of the run position, including weights on the key ring, rough or bumpy roads or other "jarring" events. Any of these situations could lead to some vehicle components not functioning properly.
There have been five fatal front-impact crashes that took the lives of six people, although as a GM spokesman noted, all five of the crashes happened off road and at high speed. In each of these cases, though, the lack of airbags wasn't the only lethal factor - alcohol and failure to wear a seat belt also played a role. Outside of the fatal accidents, there have been 17 other crashes where airbags didn't deploy. It's unclear if any of these crashes were caused by the engine shutting off.

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am

Wed, 15 May 2013

When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
