Original Factory Hot Rod Muscle Race Restoration Barn Find Vintage V8 4 Speed on 2040-cars
Kelseyville, California, United States

Restorable true 1965 Pontiac GTO. The car was built November 20 1964 at the Fremont plant here in Northern California. It was parked outside in the Central Valley area of Stockton California somewhere around 1973 until just this year. The old goat wears whats left of the original paint which is Nightwatch Blue (E code). The motor thats in it is not the original 389 4 barrell but a Pontiac 350 from a Firebird, and it is frozen. The rest of the car looks to be complete and totally original including the clutch set up, 4 speed and rear end. The car suffered a large tree dropping leaves all over it for the last 40 years which eventually rusted out the A pillars and around the windshield and back glass. The rest of the car as far as rust issues is what you would expect of a Northern California car - Frame Inner Fenders Rockers Doors are all good - minor rust at the floor pan, right quarter and trunk. I purchased the car recently with plans to leave it as is. I would install a cage, monster running gear and run it. Those plans are still in place but it is a real 65 GTO and after getting it back into my shop I realized it could be restored. I figured I would give you folks a chance to save it before I start the project. I can always find a Tempest or Lemans down the road for my "Rusty Relic Racing" idea it doesnt have to be the real deal. Reserve is set at what I have into the car down to the penny, if reserve is not met the cars mine. Clear California title in my name in hand - Car is currently licensed and registered in California. Thanks for checking out my auction. If you need specific pictures of any areas or more details dont hesitate to "ask seller a question". Car is sold where is as is with no warranties expressed or implied. Shipping costs are buyers resposibility although we will make sure its loaded onto your carrier properly. If you need help with transport, ask. We may be able to help find a good one for you. Payment in full within 5 days by cash in hand, wire transfer or check. NO PAYPAL Best of Luck

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.

Rumormill: DeLorean Motor Company considering rescuing Pontiac Solstice?
Wed, 07 Oct 2009 DeLorean Motor Company Pontiac Solstice renderings - Click above for high-res image gallery
General Motors has made a science out of sharing platforms. So when the company's Kappa platform was introduced for a new rear-drive roadster to be distributed across three different motor divisions, you'd have figured the program was pretty safe, right? Unfortunately for the workers at the Wilmington Assembly Plant which manufactured the Kappa roadsters, those three divisions were Pontiac, Saturn and Opel - three units which the General has either sold or shut down. Which is a shame, because a perfectly good rear-drive roadster platform is a heck of a thing to waste.
In one of the strangest rumors we've heard recently, however, our compatriots over at Jalopnik report that the DeLorean Motor Company (yes, that DeLorean Motor Company) is considering buying the plant and the platform from GM and putting it back into production as a new DMC.
AMC Trans Am Javelin SST, an ultra-rare underdog, is up for auction
Sat, Sep 9 2023Among the rarest of the American muscle cars that went racing in the early Seventies — cars including the Camaro Z/28 and the Boss 302 Mustang — the 1970 AMC Trans Am Javelin SST may be the most hard to find, and among the most valuable. Only 100 units of this unique Javelin were produced, and one of them is up for auction at the Mecum event in Dallas on September 20. The Trans Am Javelin was fashioned in a patriotic livery of tricolor paint — red, white and blue — and arrived after the American Motors Corporation had decided in 1968 to compete in the Trans Am racing series against Ford and General Motors. The company's chief driver, Mark Donohue, would dominate the 1971 season, taking seven wins in his Javelin AMX and that yearÂ’s SCCA Trans-Am Championship. AMC took the trophy with 82 points, well ahead of Ford's 61, Chevrolet's 17 and Pontiac's paltry 7. The example listed for auction came equipped with a 390-cubic-inch V-8 engine with 325 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 420 pound-feet of torque, power steering and brakes, dual exhaust, BorgWarner four-speed manual transmission and Hurst competition shifter. Its “ram induction system” sealed a chamber around the air filter so that cool air from the functional hood scoop would be funneled into the intake. This JavÂ’s factory price was $3,995 — a mere $32,000 or so in today's money, though it was expensive by the standards of the time. The 100 Trans Ams were among 19,714 Javelin units built in 1970, so they started out rare, and today the surviving examples are highly collectible, if and when they come up for sale. No bid estimate is available yet. Related Video: Motorsports Chevrolet Ford Pontiac Auctions Automotive History Racing Vehicles Classics
