Up for auction is this 1969 Grand prix SJ That has been cared for by its 2nd owner for over 40 years!! Bought new from ERICKSON & JAMES INC. Pontiac in Yreka California on 11-11-69 by Robert Anderson MD where he put 14,526 miles on it and it was sold on 6-6-72 to Frank and Janis Ravenscroft also in Yreka Ca. Thats where it stayed and cared for until Frank passed away and Janis figured it was time to let it go after 40 years. she told me they used it daily back in the day and raised her family using it untill they were grown. The last ten years it was used only as a weekend showcar and used occasionally. The odometer is at 124,000 miles. The original numbers matching engine and trans was rebuilt around 110,000 and it has been painted only once about 10-12 years ago the same original liberty blue with matching interior. The GP is kinda rare as its a factory hardtop without a vinyl cover. It really makes these cars sleek and sporty without the top. The interior is all original and with the exception of a couple splits in the drivers seat the rest is like new. You would never know that kids played in this car as she installed clear seat covers when they bought it and they were still there when i puchased it earlier this year. I have since taken them off as they have done there job preserving the original covers for the most part. The blue cover is still Brilliant as you will see in the pics. I have all the paperwork from new AND 2 protectoplates that go with the car along with most of the yearly registrations and insurance cards and lots of reciepts from all around matinence that was done over the years. the engine is complete numbers down to the original carb. I did put 15 inch rally II wheels on it with G70-15 Bias ply redlines. But i can switch them to the original 14x7 wheels with whitewall radials if so desired. Thats about all i can say right now but questions are welcome so please call me @ 267-246-6903 if you want to discuss the car further or a buy it now price or if you would like to make an appointment to come see it in person and take it for a drive. This is a fairly optioned car PS,PDB,PWR Windows,tilt wheel,working Air Conditioning,AM Radio/Rear mounted 8 track player that works,Cornering lamps and all the features that come with the SJ package including Rally Gauge dash and Air suspension on the rear.

This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod
Fri, 21 Feb 2014There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.
GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.
