For your consideration,one gold 1965 Pontiac GTO hardtop.It has a 389 engine with a 4 speed trans. and a 10 bolt rear end.Engine casting YS 169702. Block casting 9778789, L145 decodes as a 1965 389 with a date code of Dec.15, 1964 so I believe it is the original block. Head casting is 13 which decodes as a 1970 400 330-350 hp. Intake manifold casting 9786286 a277 decodes as a 1967 400 325-335-360 hp. The carb casting is 7040262 xa1060. The 4 speed set up looks to have been added because the radiator has a heat exchanger in it for a auto trans.The car was restored about 20 or so years ago and still looks good. It appears to have been painted in its original color and the interior was done with cloth seat inserts.The floors and frame look original and are in good shape, the rest of the body panels look good but I can't tell what is or isn't original. The car has been sitting in a dry garage with a cover on it since 1996. The motor turns over but we haven't tried to start it.This would be a great car to enjoy as it is with some work or a great candidate for a easy restoration to show condition.I am selling this for a friend of mine and you can reach me at 508-586-3152 EST.and I will try to answer all your questions. The car is located 1/2 hour south of Boston. A little bit of provenance.This car belonged to Bob Andresen of Woodland and Andresen Drag Team fame back in the 60s. It was his last machine.Happy Bidding!

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When 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.
How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.
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."
