Hello to all ebayers,...PLEASE READ.....

.....As with this auction and ALL OTHERS I'll be listing in the next several weeks each listing will start with a reasonable starting price and come with NO RESERVE!!! If there is only one bid per listing, that bidder will own the item for the starting price period!

.....up for your consideration and/or bid is a 1968 REAL GTO either as a parts car or an aggressive and serious full-out restoration project car. I'll do the best I can to list all the "pros and cons" of this GTO. The best thing is that the Pontiac is a REAL GTO and not a clone, recreation, tribute or fake,...furthermore it has the popular hide-away headlight option and the original GTO neoprene front bumper. Additionally this GTO has the factory front DISC brake option versus the standard drum set-up, please be advised that the calipers are missing. The GTO also came equipped with a neat and unusual feature for the era called REAR DEFROST. The rear defrost grille is in place with the factory cut out, but the electric motor is long gone,...however the original rear defrost chrome metal dash switch is still in place and factory wired. For those not informed, rear defrost in the early days was an electric motor blowing hot air on to the glass,.....NOT as the rear defrost ((we are all used to of today)) with the "hot wires" embedded in the glass.

The frame is very good to excellent in condition,...with only one bad spot of rust threw on the drivers side just past the rear-end, (not a structural/strength issue). This one small area could be cut out and replaced. I have posted photos of the frame because it's one of the good points of this GTO that's lost most of its original glory. Besides the GTO itself, additionally 2 EXTRA PARTS come with the GTO,...a front valance panel that has a few dents and bends but is restore-able,...also one additional passenger front fender ((came from a Lemans/Tempest)) that also has some rust/dent issues but is also very restore-able. Email me if interested and I can send you additional pictures that I could not include on ebay because of the limit of 24 pictures for private sellers,...((only dealers can post more than 24 pictures on one listing)). These additional pictures not posted on ebay show the rear defrost previously mentioned, another view of the front valance panel, another photo of the extra passenger fender ((inside)) showing the solid fender lip that bolts to the inner liner)) and additional frame pictures.

The VIN is original and in place as FACTORY INSTALLED back in 1968,...UNFORTUNATELY THERE IS NO BODY TAG,...someone removed it years ago before I acquired it. The floorboards,...((front and rear)) would need to be replaced...and ((as it is at the current time)) would not support very much weight.

Threw many credible sources I've learned that all GTO VINs start with the numbers 242, research this for your own edification. The obvious bad part of this GTO is the condition, the lack of the original drive train, no body tag, bent/rusted sheet metal. The GTO's suspension is completely free-rolling all the way around and not seized. I've had the GTO since 2004, prior to this it was in an old auto junk yard from approximately the late '70s/early '80s. I have no idea what condition the rear-end or other components are in and the winning bidder should expect that any and all components will need a rebuilding from sitting for years. What you see is what you get...sorry, I do not have any doors, hood, trunk lid or interior parts,.....however the high bidder does get one extra front valance panel and passenger fender as mentioned earlier, ((see pictures)).

I've stated all that I know about this GTO as factual as possible. Due to the age and amount of sitting for years, this GTO does not come with any guarantees or warranties expressed or implied and is sold as is where is. For the winning bidder I offer FREE delivery BUT only if you are local and/or up to only 20 miles away. If you are 21-100 miles from the GTO I offer delivery for a fee of $1.00 per mile. I do not offer any delivery options over 100 miles and I certainly do not offer any long haul options from state to state either. Any winning bidder that is in the "over 100 mile category" it is up to you to make shipping arrangements and of course all transportation and shipping costs are the expense of you...((the winning high bidder)). At my discretion, I may extend the free delivery from 21-100 miles if the GTO reaches a dollar amount I deem acceptable. Should you use your own trailer/equipment to pick up the GTO,...I offer FREE loading assistance to you with my Rollback and equipment,...or I'll assist the carrier of your choice ((should you hire one)),...also FREE of charge .

PLEASE NOTE;...the state of Maine does not/will not issue a title for ANY automobile/vehicle of 1995 or prior. I do not have a title and the (GTO) comes with a bill-of-sale as ownership. ADDITIONAL NOTE;...some states will not accept a bill-of-sale as ownership of a vehicle,...please check with your individual state. FOR THOSE PERSPECTIVE BIDDERS THAT FIT INTO THIS LAST CATEGORY,...please let me know and I can contact the state of Maine and they will issue a legal typed document for ALL 50 STATES and you can take THIS DOCUMENT / PAPERWORK to your state DMV you reside in and YOUR STATE will issue you a new title in YOUR STATE. I've done this may of times before and this is the only perfectly legal way I know of for bidders from title-demanding states to get a title on a vehicle from a non-title issuing state.

I believe the pictures speak for them self, and what doesn't I've included in the typed description,........if you feel I have missed anything or you have any questions what so ever, please feel free to send me an email and I'll answer the question(s) asap. Upon the completion of the auction I ask that the winning bidder commit to the transaction with payment in the form of a $200.00 deposit within 48 hours and follow-up with full payment in 7 days, or contact me for additional time if needed. If you have no intent of following threw with the complete payment of the auction item, please just don't bid and waste everyone's time playing games,...any non paying bidders will be reported to both ebay and all 3 major credit reporting agency's.

********KEEP WATCH,...a lot of interesting older ANTIQUE/CLASSIC AUTOS (1949-1985) better shape than this coming in the next several weeks/months,...ALL of which will start with a modest starting price w/ NO RESERVE!!!********

.....thanks for looking, Bob.

Wanted: 1967 Pontiac GTO for a special Father's Day

Thu, 07 Jun 2012

Jim 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.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Mon, 20 Jun 2011

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am

Mon, 13 May 2013

No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
