The car still retains it's original vin number matching 400. The intake was changed to that of a '68 model year and the carb was changed to a 4 speed version (7028273 XX 0569 this has been through a rebuilder at one time and all parts are not 100% correct). 4 tube headers were added with a custom 2 1/2 dual exhaust. other engine dress up items were also added. it runs well. the engine is backed up by the TH400 and a 3.55 open 8.2 rear.
The body is in overall good shape. the trim is in good shape. It looks to be an older repaint. the verdoro green paint is faded and some rust is present. some bubbles are on the drivers rear of the hood (the understructure is good and has not been "folded"), lower rear drivers door, and right rear quarter. there is rust at the wheel opening and wheel well of the pass rear. pictures are posted of these areas. the underneath of the car, frame, floors, etc. looks good. I replaced the trunk lid with a very rust free LeMans unit and added new reproduction GTO emblem. the paint doesn't quite match. I have the trim for the trunk lid and it's in good shape, as you can see it hasn't been reinstalled though. the rear bumper and bolts have been replaced with reproduction units.
The previous owner put alot of money into the interior. Both front door pannels and rear side pannels are new. The front and rear seat padding along with the upholstery is new. the carpet is new. the original head liner has some stiching comming undone in the right rear. a new headliner and material for the visors are included (not installed). the dash is in good overall shape.
The previous owner also replaced with new parts: power brake booster, master cylinder, brake hard lines, brake rubber hoses, front calipers, and brake pads.
I added 14x6 rally II wheels (not original '69) with new trim rings, center caps, and lug nuts. two new tires were also installed. the other two have about 50% tread.
I took a couple of videos, with a not so great camera, showing the hide-a-ways working, of the oil pressure guage, and a cold and hot start up and running with a quick walk around. they are not so great, but the best I could do with what I have.

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.
Aficionauto sits down with The Hoff and KITT
Fri, 10 Oct 2014The latest video from The Aficionauto is the perfect palate cleanser for Knight Rider fans after finding out that Justin Bieber is the voice of KITT in an upcoming film. Host Christopher Rutkowski says that the Knight Industries Two Thousand is one of the most requested vehicles to appear on the series and for good reason - Michael Knight's Pontiac Trans-Am is among the most famous cars to ever appear on television.
While the video isn't able to showcase one of the original KITTs from the series, it does get star David Hasselhoff to drive his personal replica and talk about the lasting legacy of the show. The highlight here might be seeing The Hoff back behind the wheel in the open desert basically recreating Knight Rider's opening sequence.
With all of its flashing lights and gizmos, you can probably make the argument that KITT is pretty cheesy, and the show itself was never exactly a pillar of high-quality drama on television. Despite that, the series still provides a ton of good-natured fun, and The Hoff's continued enthusiasm for it is pretty infectious. Check out The Aficionauto video to take another ride with Knight Rider.
