1965 Pontiac Gto on 2040-cars
Fredericksburg, Virginia, United States
|
I purchased this car in DEC 2011 from a NASCAR mechanic who works for Joe Gibbs Racing... He purchased the car a few years before, and completed a frame-off concours restoration. The car only had 46,401 original miles on it before it was restored. Every part on this car has been restored, rebuilt or replaced with quality reproduction or NOS parts. - Restored to the original color of Palmetto Green Metalic with black Cordova vinyl top, and black bucket seat interior - Original Engine Block, Transmission and Rear End - 389 ci / 360 hp. - Tri-Power - Muncie 4 Speed and Console - Custom Sports Wood Steering Wheel - Rally Gauge cluster and Tachometer w/Padded Dash - California Only... Positive Crankcase Ventilation - Saf-T-Track Differential - Wheel discs -Custom, w/7.75 x 14 Red Line Tires - Wonder touch power steering and drum Brakes - Custom Retractable seat belts - Pontiac Historical Documentation - Window Sticker - Dealership Owner's Manual and original literature A former trailer queen, I now professionally store and maintain the car in a climate controlled museum like environment , only driving it (gently) on special occasions. The car was built the 4th week of June 1965 in Freemont, CA. The car was featured on the cover of the FEB 2013 GTOAA Magazine, and has won several car shows in the recent past: 1. GM Nationals Invitational, Carlisle, PA (2012) 2. POCA Convention (2011) Jr. Gold Award - 392 out of 400 points 3. Pontiacs in Pigeon Forge Tennessee (2011) Best of Show Stock Class 4. AMES Performance Pontiac Nationals, Norwalk, OH (2010) Best in Class - GTO
I've enjoyed the car, but I'm ready to sell so I can focus on other passions. This is truly the Holy Grail of GTOs and is museum quality. I have restoration receipts totaling 125K, but my reserve is not even close to that price considering I've been able to enjoy the car for the past few years. I am not writing much in the description section as the pictures are worth a thousand words. The car can be seen in Fredericksburg, VA and I am available to answer serious inquiries... dreamers please look and enjoy, but don't waste either of our time just wanting to "talk" about the car. I can arrange for professional shipping at the buyer's expense.

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, 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.
Driving Notes
Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC
Thu, 06 Feb 2014We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.
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.
