This auction is for a 1964 Pontiac LeMans 2 door hardtop. It is an original California car still wearing its original Black and Yellow license plates. We have the original receipt from Bruin Motor Company in Los Angeles California dated April 4 1964 to the original owner for $3062. We have the original owner’s manual with Protecto plate. We found the build sheet under the rear seat. Car was built in Fremont CA.

 

I am listing this car for my son who has been restoring it for the past couple years.

 

 

 

 Please read the following description:

 

Engine: It is powered by its original 326 cu.in.2 BBL V8. We have the receipt from march 2004 for a complete rebuild for a cost of over $4700. At present the motor has just under 24,500 miles. It starts, runs, and sound great with dual Flowmasters and new tail pipes. My son replaced the stock valve covers with Chrome GTO covers. The original fan was removed and thermostatically controlled electric fans were installed. Also has a pointless ignition installed under stock distributer cap.

 

Transmission:   In Oct 2004 the original 2 speed automatic transmission was replaced with a rebuilt Turbo 350 (3 speed) at a cost of just under $1000. Installation was very professional with factory kick down cable. We have the original trans if wanted.

 

 

Mechanics: This car starts, runs and stops great. Has 4 wheel drum brakes that work great (non power). Power steering, and an updated chrome single wire alternator.

 

Body /Frame: In January 2005, the car was repainted “very close” to the original color. Paint is a Macco style job. Looks Fantastic from 20’ but is NOT show quality. For being 9 years old it has held up very well, with minimum dings scatches etc(but they are present). The frame / body is solid , dry, super clean, and rust free

 

Accessories:  Stock Am radio non op. Has Oil pressure, Temp, and Amp auxiliary gauges installed under dash. All work, car runs cool, holds great oil pressure, and charging system is upgraded with single wire Alt.  Gas gauge does not work. All lights work

 

Chrome: Bumpers look great. Rear bumper has little bow(see pics)

Trim and stainless is good with some dings

 

 

Wheels and tires:  The car has Pontiac Rally II wheels, 15” x 7” in rear, 15” x 6” in front. Tires are in good shape. We have the original 14” steel wheels with full wheel covers.

 

Interior: This is a bucket seat /console Lemans. My son just recently finished redoing almost the whole interior. New seat covers/foam front and rear, new carpet, new headliner, new package tray, arm rests, window cranks etc.  It came out Xlint.

 

Glass: All Glass is good and windows roll up and down fine

 

Suspension: Car has had coils cut front and rear for a perfect hot rod stance. Still drives fine with no rubbing or shaking etc. Goes down the freeway at 70mph nicely.

 

 

CARS NEEDS: The following is next on the list to be done.

 

New door seals

Fuel gauge fixed

Original steering wheel is cracked

New paint

Horn in-op

 

Conclusion: This is a turn key Classic Pontiac that could be the basis for a GTO clone, or drive just as is. Our goal was first to make it reliable, and that we accomplished. We have lots and lots of receipts and old registrations to show this car spent its whole life in California. If you want a show car, this is not it. It you want a reliable classic that you would not be ashamed of at any Friday night cruise, then for the $$ this is the car for you

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am

Mon, 13 May 2013

No, 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 recalling another 2.7 million vehicles in five separate campaigns

Thu, 15 May 2014

The recalls keep rolling in from General Motors, evidently keen to avoid repeating the mistakes of the ignition-switch debacle and clean house. This time they're all coming at once, with five separate recalls announced together covering approximately 2.7 million vehicles.
The largest of the five actions involves over 2.4 million units of the previous-generation Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura in order to fix brake light wiring harness, which have been found to be susceptible to corrosion. The recall is separate from the 56k Aura sedans which GM recently recalled over faulty shift cables, not to mention the previous massive recall of 1.3 million vehicles - some of them the same models - but appears to have resulted from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation that started with the G6 almost a year ago.
The second-largest campaign involves the 2014 Chevy Malibu, specifically those fitted with GM's 2.5-liter engine and stop/start system, approximately 140,000 examples of which has been found to have problematic brakes. The issue does not appear to be connected to the recall of 8k Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans (also involving brake woes) which we reported upon last week. Four crashes have been reported in such models, but GM admits it's not yet clear if the problem was a contributing factor in the accidents.

Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO

Thu, 08 Aug 2013

Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.
