Authevernes, France

Interesting Pontiac GTO made for export, mileage is in Kmh with metric speedometer. General Motors France "original import registration plate".
THE GOOD: 400ci V8 engine code YS standart 350HP, 100 miles on it since rebuilding, Edelbrock pipe and headers are the only modifications done. TH 400 transmission. New master cylinder, brake shoes and wheel brake cylinders New distributor, spark plugs and wires. New alternator, regulator and belt. 4 new 215/75/15 tires. New Flowmaster american thunder dual exhaust. A very good job had been done recently on the windshield area and the complete rear window area (new repro sheetmetal) parts were welded on and primer applied, no bondo used for this 3900$ repair. The bottom rear window sheetmetal parts were replace by new repro ones, inside and out. Chassis, floors and underbody of the shell are very solid except trunk floor which needs complet change. Good glass all arround. THE BAD: car needs a complete body restauration, electricity, interior and cosmetic job. It needs a new trunk floor and trunk lid (or a good skilled pro) Dented rear bumper. The car has a regular french title at the name of the seller, and was previously registered in Monaco. Car has some confort options. Could be interesting to restore because it's a true GTO, not a Le Mans clone. True and real matching number vehicule. Car was badly repainted years ago over the original silver grey paint. Interior is vinyl and all original. The car is able to run, and move, but hasn't been tested on long distances. I can provide some more pics if necessary, and help you arranging vehicule pick up. The car is visible in westside of Paris area if you paln to travel in Europe... I am selling this car for a friend, but I know the car myself and can answer most questions, if not I will give you his personnal Email for questions. |

Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later
Fri, 12 Sep 2014
Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
General Lee takes on Bandit T/A in classic Hollywood car showdown [w/poll]
Fri, 26 Aug 2011You don't have to be born in the 1960s or 1970s to be able to recognize the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard and the Pontiac Trans Am from Smokey and the Bandit. These old school four-wheeled stars seem to transcend demographics thanks to the miles of film that show the orange 1969 Dodge Charger and the jet-black 1977 Pontiac Trans Am performing seemingly impossible stunts.
The folks at Hot Rod magazine are obviously hip to this fact, and they put together a fun video in tribute of the instantly recognizable duo. Hit the jump to watch on as Sam Young and James Smith replace Bo Duke and The Bandit for a bit of dirt-road shenanigans in a pair of otherwise well cared for classics. We're not so sure we'd call it the best chase scene ever, but it sure looks like a lot of fun.
More importantly, which of these two cars would you rather own? Have your say in our poll below.
