You are bidding on a 1964 Pontiac Grand Prix Sport Coupe. I bought this vehicle from the original owner and performed a frame off, rotisserie restoration on it . No expense spared. The car has 58,200 original miles on it, and has been driven approximately 100 miles since restoration. It is a PHS documented 336 code 330h.p. 389 tri-power automatic. It is one of 860 (336 code) 389 tri-power cars built in 1964. The car has its original  numbers matching engine, #9770716 heads, tripower, etc... The body was taken down to bare metal and was repainted in its original color code DD Silver Mist Grey (DuPont Basecoat/ Clearcoat). The body work is laser straight.The car retains 90% of it's original black interior, only the inserts in the front buckets, the carpet, and headliner are new. It was optioned with manual brakes, power steering, dual exhaust, 3.23 posi, and 8-lug wheels. The original owner's manual with identification plates are still with the car. The original 336 code block was bored .060 over and fitted with TRW 400 forged pistons, clevite bearings, reground crank, etc... Original 716 heads were totally redone with new valve guides, seats, valves, springs, etc... Engine runs fantastic and is restored down to the original spring hose clamps, date coded spark plug wires, and original type battery. This code engine could have also been ordered in Catalina's, which is where 80-90% of them went into, due to their lighter weight. When you figure in this factor, this could be one of 50 or could be the only one ever ordered in a Grand Prix with this color/ interior combination.  Original trans was rebuilt and works great. The chrome and stainless trim were professionally redone. There are too many details to list with this car. The car has had everything rebuilt or replaced underneath, in the trunk area, everywhere.  There are none nicer. The whole car has been restored from the ground up. It is stunning. The car runs and drives flawlessly but only gets driven off and on a trailer to and from shows. This car has won numerous best of shows, and popular votes at All Pontiac shows, and has been professionally point judged, where it has won the highest award given, (Platinum), in the stock category. Bid with confidence. There are none nicer than this one. If you have any questions, call 1-319-885-6242 or 1-319-885-4372. Happy bidding. winning bidder must deposit $1000 on PayPal within 48 hrs. after auction ends. The rest of the balance is due within 7 days after auction ends.

David Hasselhoff's own KITT replica up for auction

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

Depending on when and where you grew up, the name David Hasselhoff likely conjures up images of Knight Rider, Baywatch, pop singer, or possibly a washed-up TV actor, but one thing that can never be taken away from The Hoff is his connection to one of the greatest automotive icons in pop culture. The Knight Industries Two Thousand, usually shortened to simply KITT, was the real star of Knight Rider for many fans. Based on a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, the car combined snarky quips for comedy relief and stunts to provide much of the show's actions. Now, Julien's Auctions is selling Hasselhoff's own replica as part of a larger sale of the actor's personal memorabilia collection.
This recreation is based on a 1986 Firebird and comes with all of the tech on the inside that now seems hilariously outdated, like the yoke steering wheel and plethora of buttons. The interior also thoughtfully includes a voice box with over 4,000 sound clips from the show. With a 5.0-liter V8 and an automatic transmission, performance is likely adequate and period correct. According to the listing, this car was created by fans and given to the Hoff. Sadly, the replica doesn't convert to Super Pursuit Mode like KITT could in later seasons, and we most associate KITT with conventional front-hinged doors to go with the power t-tops and ejector seats.
Bidding currently sits $27,500 with eight bids, since starting at $15,000. Julien's predicts it will sell for between $30,000 and $50,000. If there is some nostalgia for KITT in your heart, there is still plenty of time to bid.

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.

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...
