I believe the trans and rear end to be original to the car per prior owner who owned the car for the past 17 years, I have no reason to believe otherwise.
Car was repainted its original (R-2) Montero Red, and retains its completely original and mint condition black (213 code) buckets and console interior. The interior is in as new condition, even the headliner, chrome trim, all are in pristine shape. The interior of this car looks like it was never even sat in! It's truly the nicest interior I have ever seen.
The exterior as I said is a 17 year old repaint of the original Montero red, and the car still shows GREAT! You'd never believe the paint on the car is 17 years old, not in your wildest dreams.
All the brightwork and chrome is in fantastic shape! The doors open and close like new. The door glass fitment and solidity of this GTO is amazing.
The 4 speed shifts great and this car is insanely overpowered yet well mannered. The car starts easy, runs on 93 octane fuel, and will rip the tires down the street in all four gears on demand.
This is a really nice driver quality GTO with all the right stuff! and it's a 4 speed to boot! This is a very original car that the original owner blew up the rubber band 389 engine and commissioned a $7,000 build on a very potent, iron head 428. The car needs NOTHING to drive and enjoy AS-IS. It's a completely capable vehicle that looks great and runs and drives beautifully thanks to a fully rebuilt drive train and front and rear suspensions. The tires are brand new as well. The car retains what I believe to be 100% original sheetmetal. This is not a bondo buggy or anything of that nature, but more of a nicely preserved unrestored GTO
The only gripes I have about this car is 2 things. I'm a avid Pontiac collector and know this car very well. I notice some repair work was done to the trunk and some minor rust is present in the floor pans. I am including a new trunk pan and 2 full length floor pans and associated braces. However, the car is fine the way it is, but for the guy who wants to spend a weekend making the undercarriage perfect, the $1200 worth of parts are here.
This car is a excellent local show car/ driver that needs nothing to drive and enjoy. With a rust free frame and excellent poise, the car is ready to turn the key and go!

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile
Sun, 29 Apr 2012Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns
Sun, 05 Oct 2014Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.
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."
