This decodes as a 1964 Pontiac LeMans GTO that was built at Pontiac, MI during the

1st week of February 1964. The car was finished in Grenadier Red (V-2), with a Black

Vinyl Top.

The interior is finished in Black Vinyl (214). The car was built with a Muncie 4

Speed Transmission that was assembled February 4 1964. The engine block was cast

on July 10, 1964. It is a 1964 389 Engine that is not the original unit to the car. The

intake manifold is from a 1963 Tri Power Application. The heads are correct to the

vehicle. The Hurst Wheels that on the car are original examples.

Overall Condition

This is a restored 1964 Pontiac LeMans GTO. This is an older restoration that is now in

need of light freshening. The restoration when it was performed was very complete, and

was done to a high standard. The restoration was performed on a very good example

that has been finished in correct colors. The trim tag on the car is original and correct to

the vehicle. The body on the car is very good condition. The floors are excellent. The

body panels are excellent. The paint is very good. The paint will need some very good

detail work to bring it up a level. All of the bright work is correct and original. The

downfall to the car is that the restoration is older and it appears to have been poorly

stored. It’s not bad, however if you look at the hardware, shocks, clamps, bolts, etc.,

evidence of corrosion exists. The car can be easily freshened, and this example is

certainly worthy of the efforts. The engine compartment is very correct in appearance.

The engine block has been replaced at some point. The engine in the vehicle is a 389

from 1964 that was cast in July, 5 months after this cars assembly. The intake manifold

is a 1963 part number. The engine compartment needs some detail work, mainly

exhaust manifolds and cylinder heads to be refinished. The interior on the car is very

correct and is in very good condition. The components all appear to be original and

complete. The car was ran and moved in close quarters during the inspection.

Everything appeared to work as designed. The car was inspected on a lift and all

mechanical items were inspected. Everything appeared to be in good operating

condition. This is an example that was at least a very strong #2 condition car when

completed and now has just aged. This car can be taken back to let level with well

focused efforts targeted to details that have fallen in condition due to time and exposure.

The car has a great set of original Hurst wheels that have not been restored. They are

very good originals and add value to this car.

We will be listing many more vehicles in the coming days.

Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

NASCAR driver Tony Stewart is making good use of his nickname Smoke in new videos inspired by the 1970s classic Smokey and the Bandit. The original is one of the quintessential automotive movies of its era with a fantastic combination of slapstick comedy and great car stunts in a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. If you've never seen it, check it out immediately.
In the new six-part Smoke IS the Bandit web series, Stewart takes on the role of Burt Reynolds' famous character complete with huge mustache. But instead of trying to smuggle cases of Coors beer it's Mobil 1 oil. The series promises to recreate many of the famous scenes from the movie and includes cameos from other NASCAR drivers.
To complete the look, future videos just need a quality replacement for a young Sally Field to ride shotgun. It would also be really cool if Reynolds could make a brief appearance at some point. Scroll down to check out the trailer and the first episode in the series.

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 another 2.7 million vehicles in five separate campaigns

Thu, 15 May 2014

The recalls keep rolling in from General Motors, evidently keen to avoid repeating the mistakes of the ignition-switch debacle and clean house. This time they're all coming at once, with five separate recalls announced together covering approximately 2.7 million vehicles.
The largest of the five actions involves over 2.4 million units of the previous-generation Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura in order to fix brake light wiring harness, which have been found to be susceptible to corrosion. The recall is separate from the 56k Aura sedans which GM recently recalled over faulty shift cables, not to mention the previous massive recall of 1.3 million vehicles - some of them the same models - but appears to have resulted from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation that started with the G6 almost a year ago.
The second-largest campaign involves the 2014 Chevy Malibu, specifically those fitted with GM's 2.5-liter engine and stop/start system, approximately 140,000 examples of which has been found to have problematic brakes. The issue does not appear to be connected to the recall of 8k Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans (also involving brake woes) which we reported upon last week. Four crashes have been reported in such models, but GM admits it's not yet clear if the problem was a contributing factor in the accidents.
