This stunning Pontiac is a mostly original car with professionally restored bodywork and interior. It was restored from a clean and rust free California car back to its original red over black livery. See some images of the car prior to restoration on the poster board in the pictures. The restoration work is more than 10 years old, but it shows very little wear. The paint and bodywork are wonderful, smooth and straight with excellent panel fit. Since restoration, the car has been garaged and driven lightly. The engine is fitted with an aftermarket alternator. The engine and undercarriage are clean but have not been restored or detailed like the exterior. The engine has the optional Carter 4bbl carburetor. The hydramatic transmission shifts roughly at times. Could be a linkage adjustment or just normal, I don't know for sure. The car has been driven on old car tours and is certainly capable of long distance drives. The engine is strong, quiet and does not smoke.

I am trying to describe this car accurately, but there is no substitute for a personal inspection. I welcome you or a delegate to inspect this car in person. It is located near Albuquerque, NM, not far from the airport. I am listing this car for a friend. If you have specific questions about the car, I will try to get them answered promptly. The car has a current NM title in the owner's name.

This is a no reserve auction so there is no need to ask me what the reserve is. Please do NOT bid unless you are in a position to complete this contract. The high bidder is going to own this beautiful Pontiac.

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.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes

Thu, 10 May 2012

When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.

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.
