1964 Pontiac Gto 389 /4 Speed Real Deal! on 2040-cars
Wallingford, Connecticut, United States
|
Up for auction is a real (according to all the #'s) 1964 Pontiac GTO. First off, I'm no GTO expert but I do know something about old cars. I found this car in my own home town from a auto repair owner. He told me it was a real GT0 and was in in storage for the past ten or twelve years. He had the P.H.S on the car but came back with lost microfilm file and a refund check.So they couldn't come up with the original invoice for the car. He let me check and write down all the #'s and I went home to do some homework, and It looks legit to me, The motor # is 9778789 late 64 eary 65 and the cast date is 1184 = January 18 1964. The four speed M20 Muncie is 3851325. The rear is non posi 3.25 code with cast # 9773369. All in all it looks like the original drive train and the speedo says 66399. It works right on the money and the mileage meter works too and all the numbers line up straight in a row. I can't say if it's true milage and neither could the old owner but the way it runs and drives its to good for 166,000 if it rolled. Motor purrs like a kitten ,no smoking,knocking or ticking or oil leaking at all and the tranny shifts like butter and no leaks. The rear end is quiet with no noise or humming and no leaks. Exhaust is in great condition and nothing rotted .Front end is all nice in tight, no pulling , steers strait and the steering wheel is dead center when driving.Thats why I think it's original milage.Even the interior looks original and its how I got it . All I did was give it a good cleaning and polished some of the chrome. I painted the carpet with carpet paint to make it look better. It was faded really bad but still in good condition.The floor matts look like the real ones too,in great condition.I reglued the carpet back on the door panels too to make it look nice again. The seats are mint, the console and hurst shifter is in really great shape and everything work as it should including the old under the dash cassette radio with the 6x9's.The Tachometer works fine , the owners manual is still in the glove box , the Jack and spare bias ply tire are still in the trunk also indicating low milage. All the glass is excellent with no pits ,cracks or chips anywhere.All windows roll up and down and all the locks work with their keys too. The outside chrome is in good condition but the car needs a paint job as pictured.All four hubcaps on the car are in Mint condition and are very hard to find. The body is super solid with on rott that I can see, but it had some surface rust that I touch up on the back of the car in front of the trunk . Again the car need paint or drive as/is as you can see. The vinyl top is in excellent condition with no bubbling or tears. All I did was give it a good cleaning and it shines nice. If you paint the car you can leave the top alone to save some money. So here is what was done since the goat came out of hibernation. New gas tank and fuel sender was installed with new tank straps and new high test gasoline. All four shocks replaced and both u-joints replaced. Four new 205/75R14 tires with 10 miles on them. New fuel pump,all fuel hoses and had the original carter 4bl carb rebuilt. The car didn't have the original air cleaner on it. It had a rusty old moroso so I install a new air cleaner on it so it looks presentable. New water pump,hoses,stat,anti freeze and new radiator with cap. Rebuilt starter,new A/C delco battery with new brass terminals. Complete tune up with all A/C parts and spark plugs. New master cylinder,all new wheel cylinders, hoses,lines,shoes and hardware kits. Stops on a dime! I pressure washed the motor,tranny and all of the undercarriage to remove all the old flaking under coating and grease. I stripped down the motor and gave it a complete detailing and polished the original valve covers and installed new gaskets. Changed the oil and filter and add a zinc supplement to prevent any cam wear. Installed new oil pressure switch and temp switch plus new reverse light switch. The car is mechanically set and with a nice paint job you can have a real beauty. The car comes with a bill of sale and proof of registration only. Ct does not issue titles for car 25 years and older. You should not have any problems getting to car registered in your state with just a bill of sale. Please check with your DMV before bidding!! Any question, please feel free to call Loren at 203 687 0834. No Trades.No bikes. No tire kickers!

David Hasselhoff's own KITT replica up for auction
Tue, 08 Apr 2014Depending on when and where you grew up, the name David Hasselhoff likely conjures up images of Knight Rider, Baywatch, pop singer, or possibly a washed-up TV actor, but one thing that can never be taken away from The Hoff is his connection to one of the greatest automotive icons in pop culture. The Knight Industries Two Thousand, usually shortened to simply KITT, was the real star of Knight Rider for many fans. Based on a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, the car combined snarky quips for comedy relief and stunts to provide much of the show's actions. Now, Julien's Auctions is selling Hasselhoff's own replica as part of a larger sale of the actor's personal memorabilia collection.
This recreation is based on a 1986 Firebird and comes with all of the tech on the inside that now seems hilariously outdated, like the yoke steering wheel and plethora of buttons. The interior also thoughtfully includes a voice box with over 4,000 sound clips from the show. With a 5.0-liter V8 and an automatic transmission, performance is likely adequate and period correct. According to the listing, this car was created by fans and given to the Hoff. Sadly, the replica doesn't convert to Super Pursuit Mode like KITT could in later seasons, and we most associate KITT with conventional front-hinged doors to go with the power t-tops and ejector seats.
Bidding currently sits $27,500 with eight bids, since starting at $15,000. Julien's predicts it will sell for between $30,000 and $50,000. If there is some nostalgia for KITT in your heart, there is still plenty of time to bid.
Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Here comes the Judge. Court is in session. The verdict is in. How many more tired clichés can we come up with? It hardly seems to matter, because it's happening: Trans Am Depot has announced via the teaser video below that it is launching a 2014 GTO, complete with Carousel Red (bright orange, really) paint and full Judge badging.
The car is based on Trans Am Depot's 6T9 Goat, which, in case you don't get the reverential references, is meant to mimic the look of the 1969 Pontiac GTO. As with the company's other cars -including the 2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am we recently drove - the GTO will be based on the current Chevy Camaro, which means two doors, V8 engines and rear-wheel drive, just like the muscle cars of days past.
As for actual details of what's under the 2014 GTO's hood, we're completely left hanging. We'd expect some sort of power adder (turbo, supercharger or possibly some other form of a highly massaged version of the Camaro's V8), and we certainly know that GM has any number of hi-po crate engines to choose from.
Wanted: 1967 Pontiac GTO for a special Father's Day
Thu, 07 Jun 2012Jim Sharp of Elkhorn, Wisconsin needs a red 1967 Pontiac GTO to make his dad's Father's Day, possibly his last one, something extra special.
Back in the '60s, Jim's dad, Ken, drove a cherry red 1967 GTO to California for a job. He met a girl, got married and decided his wife's 1965 Ford Mustang was more fuel efficient than the Goat and the GTO was sold. As the story almost always goes, Ken has had seller's regret ever since.
Jim always meant to find a 1967 GTO and, with his dad's help, restore it. But life got in the way, time slipped by and Ken was recently diagnosed with esophageal cancer and given about three months to live.
