1964 Pontiac Lemans Convertible 326 Automatic '64 Gto Tempest on 2040-cars
|
You're bidding on my 1964 Pontiac Lemans convertible. It has a 326 v-8 with an automatic transmission (column shift). This was a barn find that I purchased several years ago, hoping to restore it, but it has been sitting in my driveway since I've had it as I've done nothing to it. It is a factory Saddle Bronze color with a Saddle interior and Black top. The car appears to be complete as you can tell in the pictures, but it does have some significant rust in the floors, trunk floor, lower fenders, quarter panels and doors. The doors sag and rub the front edge of the quarter panels. There are some areas in the frame that have some rust-thru as well. The right front tie rod sleeve is broken so the R/F tire does not steer. It has the taillight assemblies and the gas filler door trim that still has the handle on it. The power top pump, cylinders, hoses & switch are still in place. I have the keys to it, but I've never tried to turn the engine over. This would make a great parts car with the complete convertible trim pieces and interior panels, or it could be restored or cloned into a GTO convertible, with extensive work. Although the ad says there is a salvage title, I do not have a title for this car. The guy I bought it from promised me a clear title but I never got it. The auction does not include the two 15" Rally II wheels - they will be replaced with roller tires & wheels. Please ask any questions before bidding. If you would like pictures of specific areas, provide me with your email address and I can forward them to you. Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements & costs. A $500 non-refundable PayPal payment is due from the winning bidder within 48 hours after the auction ends. The remainder is to either be paid in cash at the time of pick-up or by certified bank check, but the car will not leave my premises until my bank has assured me that the funds have been safely deposited.

Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way
Tue, 21 Feb 2012There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.
NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative
Tue, 29 Oct 2013How 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?
