I BOUGHT THIS BEAUTIFUL GTO ONE YEAR AGO.  I AM THE THIRD PROUD OWNER.  I PUT LESS THAN 1000 MILES ON IT.  I HAD IT JUST LONG ENOUGH TO BRING IT UP TO THE BEAUTIFUL LOOKING AND RUNNING CONDITION IT'S IN TODAY. AND JUST LONG ENOUGH TO LOSE MY JOB.  MY PAIN WILL BE YOUR GAIN.  I INSTALLED  NEW A/C ($2400), TOTALLY REPAINTED IT ORIGINAL MONTERO RED ($5000).  UPDATED THE RADIO ($500).  NEW RADIATOR, ALTERNATOR, BATTERY, POWER STEERING PUMP ($875).  ALL THREE TRI-POWER CARBS REBUILT ($850).  BRAND NEW OEM FRONT BUMPER AND NEW OLD STOCK OEM HEADLIGHT BUCKETS ($1500) AND NEW GRILLES REALLY MAKE THE FRONT POP.  THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD THIS WONDERFUL GTO FOR 17 YEARS GARAGED IN FLORIDA.  SHE SPENT THE FIRST 28 YEARS IN A VIRGINIA GARAGE WITH THE ORIGINAL OWNER.                  

 

SELDOM DO WE FIND A MID-60’S MUSCLE CAR WITH THIS MUCH CURB APPEAL.

THE BODY OF THIS GTO CONVERTIBLE IS EXTREMELY STRAIGHT WITH NO SIGNS OF REPAIR OR BONDO, THE BODY PANELS ARE ORIGINAL TO THE CAR, THE LINES ARE GREAT.

THIS KILLER GTO SITS ON RALLY 1 WHEELS WITH NEW RAISED WHITE LETTER GOODYEAR RADIAL TIRES WITH LESS THAN 200 MILES ON THEM.

 

THIS GTO WAS BORN WITH A RED BUCKET SEAT INTERIOR, THE BUCKET SEATS AND DOOR PANELS ARE ORIGINAL TO THE CAR. THE RED CARPET WAS CHANGED A FEW YEARS AGO. THE CONSOLE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. NOTICE THE CORRECT 4-SPEED SHIFTER? THE WOOD GRAIN DASH IS NEW/RESTORED. THE ORIGINAL STEERING WHEEL IS BEAUTIFUL WITH NO CRACKS.   CHECK OUT THE FACTORY TACH AND RALLY GAUGES? THE PADDED DASH IS PERFECT. EVERYTHING WORKS AS IT SHOULD. INSIDE THE DOOR JAMBS ARE VERY CLEAN. THE ORIGINAL A.M. RADIO HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO A MODERN, AM/FM STEREO RADIO, WITH AUXILARY JACK, BUT YOU'D NEVER KNOW BY LOOKING, BECAUSE THE APPEARANCE AND OPERATION OF THE CONTROLS IS STILL THE SAME AS WHEN THE RADIO WAS INSTALLED AT THE FACTORY. THERE IS A SEAM THAT OPENED UP ON THE DRIVERS SEAT. OTHER THAN THAT THE INTERIOR IS BEAUTIFUL.

 

UNDER THE HOOD YOU CAN SEE THE IMPRESSIVE TRI-POWER BIG BLOCK. THE MOTOR IS A 1969 455 CI YC CODE. THE TRI-POWER SETUP IS ORIGINAL TO THE CAR. ALSO THERE IS CORRECT EXHAUST MANIFOLDS INSTALLED.

THIS CAR WOULD MAKE ANYONES GARAGE LOOK GOOD… THE ORIGINAL MILES ON THE ODOMETER SHOW 53,847, THE TITLE STATES ACTUAL MILEAGE.  TODAY, I TOOK THE CAR OUT OF THE GARAGE FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE FALL, DROVE IT, WASHED IT, AND ENJOYED IT, KNOWING IT MAY BE THE LAST TIME I DRIVE IT.   BUT,  WHAT A HEAD TURNER IT IS…. PEOPLE STOPPED ME AT THE CAR WASH, GAS STATION, SUPER MARKET, AND IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD.  IT GOES DOWN THE ROAD MINT AND PERFORMS FLAWLESLY… ALSO IT RUNS COOL AS A CUCUMBER..

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.

This Hoonigan mechanic's twin-turbo Trans Am is wonderful

Thu, Mar 24 2016

What do you drive when you work on rally machines for a living? Probably a Subaru WRX, and that's what Gregg Hamilton had for a while until working on his car felt too much like his day job. So when he moved from New Zealand to the US to work for Ken Block (with a few stops along the way) he bought something entirely different. This is Gregg's 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. It's a throwback to another time, but it's anything but stock. It has that magic combination of a big V8 with a manual transmission and rear drive, just like the tin-top racers Gregg watched in his Kiwi youth. He bought it sight unseen from its previous owner in Alabama, and has been tinkering with it ever since. There's something about the flared wheel arches and the classic Firebird gold-striped black livery that has us smitten. Scope out the six-minute clip above from Petrolicious and see if you don't fall for Gregg's Pontiac as well.

This or That: 2005 Chrysler Crossfire SRT6 vs. 1984 Pontiac Fiero

Tue, Feb 10 2015

Welcome to another round of This or That, where two Autoblog editors pick a topic, pick a side and pull no punches. Last round pitted yours truly against Associate Editor Brandon Turkus, and my chosen VW Vanagon Syncro narrowly defeated Brandon's 1987 Land Rover. In fact, it was, by far, the closest round we've seen, with 1,907 voters seeing things my way (for 50.8 percent of the vote) versus 1,848 votes for Brandon's Rover (49.2 percent). Sweet, sweet victory! For this latest round of This or That, I've roped Editor Greg Migliore into what I think is a rather fun debate. We've each chosen our favorite terrible cars, setting a price limit of $10,000 to make sure neither of us went too crazy with our automotive atrocities. I think we've both chosen terribly... and I mean that in the best way possible. 2005 Chrysler Crossfire SRT6 Jeremy Korzeniewski: Why It's Terrible: Taken in isolation, the Chrysler Crossfire isn't necessarily a terrible car. In fact, it drives pretty darn well, and there's a lot of solid engineering under its slinky shape. Problem is, that engineering was already rather long in the tooth well before Chrysler ever got its hands on it, having come from Mercedes-Benz, which used the basic chassis and drivetrain in a previous version of its SLK coupe and roadster. Granted, the SLK was an okay car, too, but even when new, it hardly set the world on fire with sporty driving dynamics. Chrysler took these decent-but-no-more bits and pieces from the Mercedes parts bin – remember, this car was conceived in the disastrous Merger Of Equals days – and covered them with a rather attractive hard-candy shell. Unfortunately, the super sporty shape wrote checks in the minds of buyers that its well-worn mechanicals were simply unable to cash, though an injection of power courtesy of a supercharged V6 engine in the SRT6 model, as seen here, certainly helped ease some of those woes. In the end, Chrysler was left with a so-called halo car that looked the part but never quite performed the part. It was almost universally panned by critics as an overpriced parts-bin special, which, I must add, was damningly accurate. As a result, sales were very slow, and within the first few months, dealers were clearancing the car at cut-rate prices, just to keep them from taking up too much of the showroom floor. Why It's Not That Terrible, After All: I can speak from personal experience when discussing the Chrysler Crossfire. You see, I owned one. Well, sort of...
