Brief history, I got the car at age 15. It was running and driving and mostly complete. Over my high school years it was disassembled for restoration. Instead of restoring it, I got married and started life. Now, after 22 years, a wife, 4 kids & a mortgage later, the car is still un-restored. Maybe it's time to let it go. Here's what it is: PHS documented, Verdero green on green on green, YS code 400, auto, disc brakes, hideaways, A/C, tilt wheel, remote mirror & power windows. When I got it it had a running 400 from a '71. That engine is gone and I have a correct '69 YS code block, but is not #'s matching. The #'s off the front of the engine are 29Z117307 & 0500425 over YS, and at the back of the engine a date code of B 049 & 9790071. The heads are 62 with date codes of K 048 & K 128. I have all the major engine pieces, but it is disassembled and needs to be re-built. I've had the block checked & it's good. The tranny has been re-built & in dry storage for 20 years. The car needs everything, but is not rusty. It has seen some accidents, but doesn't need major rust repair. It's been skinned on the right side and has lots of bondo on both sides. It's been re-painted numerous times. Most major components are present, but it's missing some of the hideaway set up for sure, and who knows how many other little things. I've hung the front clip on it mostly for looks and for ease of transport. The front bumper and lower valance are real nice, not bent up. The hood is great. The front fenders are pretty rough. Good enough to fix if you really wanted original, but they have rust and dents. The dash is pretty bad, but I have another one with just a minor crack on top. The seats need upholstery, but the frames & springs seem fine. The windshield is not cracked, but has some delimitation and sand pitting. I have a youtube video of the car before the front clip was on. Sorry about the poor quality I was pretty sick when I shot it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZWnxwX6tdw Also noticed that the video/sound are not in sync, oh well. Please email or call 541-531-9995 with any questions. The car can sit in the shop for a month or so if arrangements are made before the sale. $500 through paypal within 72 hrs & the balance via money order or whatever in 2 weeks or so, depending on arrangements. I'd encourage a physical inspection, if possible. Again, the car needs everything, but it has great options and isn't rusty. Also, sorry about the sideways pictures. I'm not computer smart enough to figure out how to rotate them. I'd consider trading the GTO for the right late 1990's or early 2000's standard length 12 passenger (not a 15 passenger) diesel van.

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
Wanted: 1967 Pontiac GTO for a special Father's Day
Thu, 07 Jun 2012Jim Sharp of Elkhorn, Wisconsin needs a red 1967 Pontiac GTO to make his dad's Father's Day, possibly his last one, something extra special.
Back in the '60s, Jim's dad, Ken, drove a cherry red 1967 GTO to California for a job. He met a girl, got married and decided his wife's 1965 Ford Mustang was more fuel efficient than the Goat and the GTO was sold. As the story almost always goes, Ken has had seller's regret ever since.
Jim always meant to find a 1967 GTO and, with his dad's help, restore it. But life got in the way, time slipped by and Ken was recently diagnosed with esophageal cancer and given about three months to live.
