1964 Pontiac Lemans Convertible 326 Automatic '64 Gto Tempest on 2040-cars

Year:1964 Mileage:99999
Location:

 You're bidding on my 1964 Pontiac Lemans convertible. It has a 326 v-8 with an automatic transmission (column shift). This was a barn find that I purchased several years ago, hoping to restore it, but it has been sitting in my driveway since I've had it as I've done nothing to it. It is a factory Saddle Bronze color with a Saddle interior and Black top. The car appears to be complete as you can tell in the pictures, but it does have some significant rust in the floors, trunk floor, lower fenders, quarter panels and doors. The doors sag and rub the front edge of the quarter panels. There are some areas in the frame that have some rust-thru as well. The right front tie rod sleeve is broken so the R/F tire does not steer. It has the taillight assemblies and the gas filler door trim that still has the handle on it. The power top pump, cylinders, hoses & switch are still in place. I have the keys to it, but I've never tried to turn the engine over. This would make a great parts car with the complete convertible trim pieces and interior panels, or it could be restored or cloned into a GTO convertible, with extensive work. Although the ad says there is a salvage title, I do not have a title for this car. The guy I bought it from promised me a clear title but I never got it. The auction does not include the two 15" Rally II wheels - they will be replaced with roller tires & wheels. Please ask any questions before bidding. If you would like pictures of specific areas, provide me with your email address and I can forward them to you.  Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements & costs. A $500 non-refundable PayPal payment is due from the winning bidder within 48 hours after the auction ends. The remainder is to either be paid in cash at the time of pick-up or by certified bank check, but the car will not leave my premises until my bank has assured me that the funds have been safely deposited.

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.

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General 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.
