NON SMOKER, ICE COLD A/C

 

Although car fax says the car is a 3 owner vehicle, it’s not. I’m the 2nd owner and have all the paperwork to prove it. It's because I registered it with a new custom license plate in which New York State deemed it to be a new owner. This is incorrect. I'm the 2nd owner of the car.  I purchased it used in August 2004 from a certified dealership in Canandaigua, NY. It was on the showroom floor and had 4,333 miles at the time.

Any of these parts can be "goggled" to find out about pricing or about the company that makes them.

 

There have been no modifications to the engine itself at all.  It’s completely stock internally.

Oil is changed before storage every year by myself and I only put on about 500 miles a year, if that.

 

 

STOCK PARTS ARE INCLUDED IN SALE OF THE CAR, if you want them

 

Since I bought the car, it’s always been garaged under a cover.  I have won numerous car shows for best in class (firebird/camaro/transam 4th gen) and even one best in show.

 

The car has never seen snow or ice but it has seen rain 5 times, yes 5 times. The time I drove home from the dealership directly after purchasing the car. Twice on the way home from car shows, and twice when I took my (at the time fiance) out. 

 

The car is washed frequently and waxed yearly.

 

This car has NEVER been dragged or raced, nor performed burn outs but it has been driven. After all, it’s what they were built for- Stop light warriors! My initial goal with all of the modifications was to add a procharger and make it a sweet street/show car with excellent handling but I found the car to be enjoyable without the procharger.  

 

As it sits right now, the exhaust makes it sounds mean and it’s loud too! You ever have the joy of driving down the street while setting off the occasional car alarm? It’ll bring a smile to your face every time.  Not your style? Use the electric cutout for a more stock/quieter sounding car.  It still has some rumble but without the noise complaints from your neighbors.

 

 

Flaws: 

I’ll be honest and up front and as descriptive as possible so there are no surprises.

Contact me via eBay for additional pictures if you request them.

All flaws are strictly cosmetic and there are no drivability issues.

-One of the stock rims has a scratch in the clear coat. It's not noticeable until u get up close.

-Passenger door had a scratch professionally filled and buffed out but still slightly noticeable in direct sunlight reflection.

-Sail Panel is starting to have the infamous bubbles under the clear coat.  They are very small but I wanted to make you aware.

-The front bumper has a small spider web crack in the paint from the hood latch (only visible when hood is open)

-SLP lid has a blemish on the top and seems to be rubbing on the underside of the hood.

-The T/A Performance cover has a small leak around the seal causing an extremely slow drip.

-There is a 1” slice in the carpet on the passenger side over the trunk behind the back seat.

-The driver side front Goodyear GSD3 tire has a small slash in the bottom of the sidewall from some kid with a razor not liking my car. It's been there for 2 yrs and my mechanic says it’s not detrimental the tire.

-Driver side floor mat is showing signs of wear

-Alignment is spot on but the steering wheel is not centered/straight. I haven’t had time to have my mechanic fix it for “looks”

-It does NOT have the most popular flaw of the cracked door panels. Both are intact and still solid.

 

Please keep in mind that this is a 12 year old car and most of these items listed are normal wear items.

 

 

Reason for selling: 

I just don’t drive it anymore.  Plus, my family is out growing our house and need to upgrade and I could use the extra money.  I don’t have to sell the car but I rarely drive it and feel that it deserves to go to someone who would drive it and enjoy it.

 

Shipping:

Buyer is responsible for shipping or local pick up.

I may be able to facilitate with a friend who can transport in an enclosed trailer for an extra fee.  Check with me if interested. 

 

Payment:

Buyer must contact me upon sale to make arrangements for completion. A $500.00 NONREFUNDABLE deposit via PayPal will be due upon completion of sale with the rest of the funds being due within 14 days. I will accept a Wire Transfer, Certified funds, or an Official Bank Check ONLY, sorry no cash sale.  Funds must be cleared by the bank on your end first. I will not release the vehicle to you or a shipping company, until funds have cleared my account in which I will then allow it for pick up.  Car does NOT leave my possession until then.  Once the car is picked up and/or funds have cleared my account, I can then sign over the title to you.  I have no problem holding the car for any length of time for you to arrange pick up

 

Disclaimer: 

The car maybe be occasionally being driven on nice days therefore mileage may change slightly.  The car is also for sale locally and this listing can end at any given time.  The car is being “SOLD AS IS with NO WARRANTY.”

Junkyard Gem: 1964 Pontiac Catalina Custom Ventura

Mon, May 22 2023

Like Impala, Skylark, Malibu and Silverado (among many others), the Ventura name began its career as the designation for a trim level or option package used on another GM model, then became a model name in its own right. Initially a designation for a snazzed-up Pontiac Catalina two- or four-door hardtop, the Ventura name moved over to a Pontiac-ized version of the Chevy Nova for 1971. Today's Junkyard Gem, found in a Northern California car graveyard, proudly bears both Catalina and Ventura badging. Actually, the Catalina name itself started out as a trim level for the Chieftain and Star Chief models of the 1950s, just to confuse everybody. By the time this car was built, the Catalina was the cheapest of four Pontiac models built on the same full-size B-Body platform as the big Chevrolets and Olds 88s of the time (the Star Chief, Bonneville and Grand Prix ranked above it on the 1964 Pontiac Prestige-O-Meter). The 1964 Catalina four-door hardtop with the Custom Ventura package offered a lot of swank per dollar, with a price starting at $3,063. That's about $29,821 when converted to inflated 2023 dollars. The main benefit of the Custom Ventura package was an interior done up entirely in Morrokide upholstery. Morrokide was the name GM applied to Naugahyde fake leather when used in Pontiac vehicles; when used in Buicks, it was known as Cordaveen, while Oldsmobile Naugahyde was called Morocceen. Naugahyde took its name from the town of Naugatuck, Connecticut, where it was invented. This car's Morrokide is in rough shape. In fact, everything about this car is decayed and probably infectious. You know to be careful when a junkyard car has warnings about rat feces inked on the glass. That said, I couldn't resist examining the 8-track tapes that littered the interior. Here's Hotel California, the 1976 hit album by the Eagles. Supertramp's Paris, a live album recorded from the 1979 Breakfast in America tour, is here as well. Here's The Best of Carly Simon, from 1975. The tapes were played on this Sparkomatic player, which probably lived in the glovebox or under the seat. The factory radio was AM-only, and includes the frequency markings for the atomic-attack CONELRAD emergency frequencies. 1964 was the last year for mandatory CONELRAD radios in the United States.

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."

Win a car while supporting a charity this holiday season

Thu, Dec 9 2021

Autoblog may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Pricing and availability are subject to change. No donation or payment necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes. See official rules on Omaze.  The leaves have fallen, there is a crispness to the air and there have already been multiple forecasts of snow, which can only mean one thing: We're coming up on Christmas. While you've been busy thinking about what kind of gifts you're going to give your loved ones, we here at Autoblog have been deciding which dream car we'd like to see in our driveway on Christmas morning. A car for Christmas does seem a bit extreme and expensive, but thanks to these Omaze sweepstakes, it doesn't have to break the bank. Here are the current sweepstakes we'd like to win this holiday season. Win a DeLorean DMC-12 - Enter at Omaze James Riswick, West Coast Editor: Let me be clear, the DeLorean is a pretty terrible car. Its speedometer doesn't even go up to the fabled 88 mph. Seriously, look at the pictures: tops out at 85. Also, who services a DeLorean? And how much would it cost to maintain one? $AlloftheMoney or just $MostoftheMoney? So owning it could be a total headache, but at least by winning one through Omaze, you'd be relieved of the financial burden of buying one in the first place. You'd also get the chance to own one of the most iconic cars of all time, one that transcends car enthusiasm and is instantly recognizable by everyone as the "Back to the Future" car. Plus, "everyone" doesn't know that the DeLorean was actually a pretty terrible car. So, I already own James Bond's car from 1995, why not Doc Brown's from 1985? Win a 2021 Bentley Bentayga V8 - Enter at Omaze Eddie Sabatini, Production Manager: Why am I choosing a +$200K Bentley SUV? Because even if I could afford one I'd never be able to wrap my head around spending money on one. So why not try to win one by donating what I can afford to a good cause? I first saw the Bentley Bentayga up close and personal at the Frankfurt Motor Show (I forget which year but I'll never forget this SUV). And although it looks like the Bentayga Omaze is offering up doesn't have the opulent tailgate setup I fell in love with when I saw it in Frankfurt, I'd still enter to win. Win a 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda - Enter at Omaze Byron Hurd, Editor: Few automotive marketing efforts stick out in my head more than the Mercedes-Benz holiday spots and magazine placements.
