1965 Pontiac Grand Prix on 2040-cars
Tacoma, Washington, United States
|
Obviously NOT a restoration vehicle! NO TITLE. This is a parts car 1965 Grand Prix. The car was once used as a demo for a car accessory installation company 15 years ago. It was decked out with the latest stereo and accessory equipment available at the time. It also had a built 389 and 18" wheels. But slowly, as the car sat,parts have been removed and this is what is left...The main interest is the frame. The frame is in excellent condition.And, its a fully boxed frame from the factory so it can be used on convertible Catalinas and 2+2's..No damage and just minimal surface rust. The car also has Air-Ride airbags installed front and rear and matched rear Air Ride extendable shocks in the rear only. Also a panhard rod. The front has GM truck spindles and disc brake rotors, but no calipers. It has a quick ratio steering box and upgraded tie rods. keep in mind these are 15 years old, but car saw very little road use. Other good parts are the doors. Theyre both very nice but the key lock holes are filled. I think it's just bondo'd over. No rust on the door frames that I can see, Doors had opener solenoids and so the outer handles don't do anything. Rockers good, window channels good, cowl area okay, some rust but not all rusted out. Car also comes with the nice, non tilt steering column and cool Grant Steering wheel. There is no air tank or pump for the airbags, but the valves and airlines are present. The frame can be put back to stock suspension easily, but youll need to cut out the rear upper spring pockets and weld them to this frame as they've been altered. There is also very mior cuts from the frame for the front bags, but it's not structural or visible. The left fend is decent, the quarter panels aren't that bad but areas have been cut out. Also, the entire area below the rear window is gone, As I said, it's for PARTS. No title, but VIN and trim tag present. Also, car comes with the trim between the taillights and its pretty nice. The radiator support is bad. Also included but not pictured are the front and rear bumpers and their brackets. The front is pushed in a little in the nose, the rear bumper is very straight. WHOOPS!, the last pic is of a 66 gauge bezel and DOES NOT go with car as I sold the bezel. Was unable to delete that pic, sorry!! The car had 2 batteries in the trunk..The cables are still there and in good shape The car is sold with everything and only whats in the pics. I have no other parts for the car other that mentioned above. If the buyer wants only certain parts, I can remove and ship them but prefer to have buyer take everything Just to say again, this is a PARTS CAR with NO TITLE. It's mainly the frame and airbag parts! NO RESERVE. If car doesn't sell, it gets crushed as is. Buyer pays shipping. I will assist. Car rolls fine and will steer |

This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod
Fri, 21 Feb 2014There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.
2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern
Mon, 07 Nov 2011General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.
Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC
Thu, 06 Feb 2014We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.
