1964 PONTIAC GTO CONVERTIBLE unrestored original survivor. numbers match. PHS Documented 348 hp tri-power, 4 speed transmission, 3.55 ratio safe-t track rear, radio, heater, windshield tint and nothing else! (no power steering, brakes, no console, no air) I have owned this car since May 1980 (34 years) power steering has been added. It was stored inside and seldom driven for the last 20 years. Since it ran poorly when parked we decided to freshen up the motor and rebuild anything that didn't work properly. The engine (code 76X) is .030 over with new bearings, rings, seals and gaskets. A complete valve job was done with new oil seals, The original camshaft was replaced with Summit part # 123455 which adds considerable horsepower but moves the torque curve up quite a bit. A complete new 2.25" exhaust system was installed, The carbs were rebuilt with new linkage, and air filters, the water pump was replaced, a new clutch disc installed with a new pilot bearing. A replacement distributer was installed and the engine compartment was detailed. The convertible top motor was rebuilt and new weatherstrip was applied to the doors. No other restoration has been done. The car had been repainted before I bought it and the color is similar to the original turquoise. The paint is a 10 footer, shiny but lots of tiny flaws. The front bumper could use chrome but the rear bumper is excellent. The interior is very nice but the carpet is not the original loop style and the front seats are stiched instead of the original electroweld. The rear seat is the original and is perfect. The original door panels are excellent...The top and frame are in good shape and the top boot is nice. There is no rust at all on this car as well as no evidence of any damage. All in all a very nice car. It is MUCH faster than before. Here are the numbers: Block casting #9778155, code 76X dated C 25 4, Heads casting #9770716 dated C 24 4, Intake casting #9775088 dated k 10 3, 4 spd casting # 3851325 (no date), front carb # 7024178 center carb #7024175 Rear carb #7024179 Bell housing casting # 9773320. (unique to the 1964 4 speed cars) All these numbers are correct for the 1964 GTO. The body ID plate (firewall) shows the body to have been built in Pontiac Mich in the 5th week of January 1964 (code 01E), the PHS docs show the date to be Jan 31 1964. so far so good, but the engine (block and heads) was cast in March 64 (C 25 4 and C 24 4). 2 months after the car was built. ??? My guess is that the first owner blew the engine and the block was replaced under warranty (but who knows?) The PHS docs also show no power steering, so that was added sometime before I bought the car in 1980. Any fifty year old car must have it's secrets ! The engine has about 20 minutes of camshaft break in time on my engine stand and less than 50 miles of trouble free driving after installation. The car is ready to drive anywhere. I can email pictures of any part of the car you might like to see. I owned and raced a 64 tempest with a 1969 400 and1966 tripower and heads (#77) which ran 102 in the quarter. This car feels faster. I am getting too old to keep doing this (i'm 75) so everything but my last 2 cars (57 Bel air and 57 270 hp Vette ) will have to go. The radio does not work and the steering wheel is not original but I think you will love the car. I also can include seats and exhaust headers(rusty) from my tempest if you want them. The engine from that 64 tempest is available if someone wants it. It's a 400 ci 69 block with 66 GTO heads (#77) and Tri Power (big center carb), unknown cam but likely stock. Flexplate in back with electronic dist.. $1000 for the engine (the 66heads, intake, and carbs are worth more ). It will be listed on ebay under Pontiac parts. |

And a lot of those ways can be boring or tasteless. This one is neither. This is a seriously classy Pontiac GTO. Under the hood is a 461 cu. in. V8 from Butler Performance that's based on an actual Pontiac V8, not just another Chevy engine. The whole thing is subtle with a low-key metallic green and clean gray wheels. There isn't any overly flashy chrome or decals.
Another Burt Reynolds Trans Am is up for auction
Wed, Jan 18 2017Fans of Smokey and the Bandit, your car has arrived. This Saturday, January 21, Barrett-Jackson will auction a 1977 Pontiac Trans Am clone that, while not originally in the movie, was owned and signed by the Bandit himself, Burt Reynolds. Not only that, but it packs many modifications that should make this Pontiac drive the way we all imagined it did. This is a Trans Am clone, not an original. The car was built by Nebraska company Restore A Muscle Car, and started life as a lowly Firebird Formula. However, the company brought it up to Trans Am grade and beyond. Under the hood is a fuel-injected 8.2-liter V8 from Butler Performance that Restore A Muscle Car says produces 600 horsepower. Coupled to the big V8 is a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. There's even Hurst line-lock on-board, so this Trans Am should be perfect for on-demand burnouts. The car also comes with QA1 coil-over suspension, so it should corner better than the original, too. The outside looks roughly like a stock Trans Am, but it now has 18-inch wheels styled after those from the movie car, and the shaker scoop says "8.2" on each side. View 5 Photos In 2014, a 1977 Trans Am owned by Reynolds sold for a whopping $450,000. That car wasn't an actual movie car either, and lacked the modifications of this one. However, it was used as a promotional car and was given to Reynolds, so it did have some history with the film. This upgraded car is listed in the Barrett-Jackson catalog as "no reserve," so it's going home with a new owner on Saturday, regardless of price. Related Video:
GM recalling 778,000 Cobalts and G5s, six deaths reported
Thu, 13 Feb 2014General Motors has announced that it will be recalling 778,562 compact cars after six people were killed in accidents, partially due to the airbags' failure to deploy. An issue with the ignition switch is causing the airbag issues, as well as causing the engine and other components to shut off without warning. The recall covers the 2005 to 2007 model year Chevrolet Cobalt and 2007 Pontiac G5. (Note that the Cobalt pictured above is a 2009 model.)
According to a report from Automotive News, a number of factors can cause the ignition to switch out of the run position, including weights on the key ring, rough or bumpy roads or other "jarring" events. Any of these situations could lead to some vehicle components not functioning properly.
There have been five fatal front-impact crashes that took the lives of six people, although as a GM spokesman noted, all five of the crashes happened off road and at high speed. In each of these cases, though, the lack of airbags wasn't the only lethal factor - alcohol and failure to wear a seat belt also played a role. Outside of the fatal accidents, there have been 17 other crashes where airbags didn't deploy. It's unclear if any of these crashes were caused by the engine shutting off.
