1968 GTO Convertible Restored numbers matching Awesome GTO!

Up for auction is my gorgeous 1968 Pontiac GTO Convertible. It is a true 24267 (350 HP) car with numbers matching 400 motor and Turbo Hydra-Matic transmission. This car looks great, runs strong, sounds fantastic and gets shouts of approval wherever I go.

Here are some particulars…

In 2007 (about 8,300 miles ago) the car was fully restored including:

· Body thoroughly disassembled (shop said it had all original sheet metal with stampings), refurbished and put back together.

· Beautiful new red paint and new white top.

· Engine was torn down and rebuilt including new pistons, rings, Lunati cam, and many other parts and improvements.

· The new top also had new pads, weather strip, frame, switch, and motor installed.

· The trunk compartment was detailed to look brand new.

· The undercarriage is beautiful with spotless floor pans, and a clean, rust-free frame that was bead blasted then primed and had chassis black applied.

· Interior is show ready with new seat covers, new carpeting, and correct date coded front and rear seat belts, etc.

Also the car shows two sets of wheels and tires in the pictures. A set of like new bias ply red-line tires on beautiful Rally II wheels or a brand new set of BF Goodrich TA Radials on Cragar S/S wheels. If you win the auction you pick the Rally IIs or the Cragars, if the winning bid is over $36,000 you get both sets.

The Hurst His n Hers shifter works perfectly with the rebuilt in 2012 Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission for crisp shifts and robust acceleration.

This great GTO comes with some Pontiac Historical Services paperwork, the 1968 owner's manual and some restoration receipts as well as a laminated reproduction window sticker. The VIN is 242678B119655. A black convertible boot also goes to the auction winner as well as a few small extra parts and paraphernalia and two sets of keys.

This car is ready to enjoy. The only glaring weakness is the vent windows' chrome needs to be re-done. This is a 45 year old car that appears to be in great condition for its age, but it is 45 years old. Feel free to e-mail questions and I’ll do my best to answer them, or better yet, come to Rochester, NY to see the car first hand or get an independent inspection done to see what a great ride this GTO really is. The fair reserve on this car as well as the "Buy It Now" price are indicative of the value of this beautiful classic car.

This GTO Convertible is being sold as is, where is with no warranty, expressed written or implied. The seller shall not be responsible for the authenticity, genuineness, or defects herein, and makes no warranty of any type. Any descriptions or representations are for identification purposes only. It is the responsibility of the buyer to have thoroughly inspected the vehicle and to have satisfied his or her self as to the condition and value and to bid based upon that judgment solely. The seller has and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects associated with this vehicle at the buyer's request prior to the close of sale. Seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs needed to the vehicle.

The following terms of sale apply: Payment in cash, certified check, or bank transfer within seven days of the close of the auction. All funds must be in US dollars only. Please be sure to have full payment and/or approved financing in place before making your final bid. The successful high bidder will submit a minimum of a $2,000 non-refundable deposit via Paypal or bank wire transfer within 2 business days of the close of the auction to secure the vehicle. All financial transactions must be completed before delivery of the vehicle.

The vehicle is in Webster, NY (a suburb of Rochester, NY) and is available for pick up by carrier or by the new owner. The new owner is responsible for all travel arrangements for his or her self and the vehicle. I would suggest driving the car home or enclosed carrier transportation.

The vehicle is available for sale locally and the auction may be ended at any time.

Good Luck!

GM recalling another 2.7 million vehicles in five separate campaigns

Thu, 15 May 2014

The recalls keep rolling in from General Motors, evidently keen to avoid repeating the mistakes of the ignition-switch debacle and clean house. This time they're all coming at once, with five separate recalls announced together covering approximately 2.7 million vehicles.
The largest of the five actions involves over 2.4 million units of the previous-generation Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura in order to fix brake light wiring harness, which have been found to be susceptible to corrosion. The recall is separate from the 56k Aura sedans which GM recently recalled over faulty shift cables, not to mention the previous massive recall of 1.3 million vehicles - some of them the same models - but appears to have resulted from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation that started with the G6 almost a year ago.
The second-largest campaign involves the 2014 Chevy Malibu, specifically those fitted with GM's 2.5-liter engine and stop/start system, approximately 140,000 examples of which has been found to have problematic brakes. The issue does not appear to be connected to the recall of 8k Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans (also involving brake woes) which we reported upon last week. Four crashes have been reported in such models, but GM admits it's not yet clear if the problem was a contributing factor in the accidents.

Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?
