 You are bidding on a 1972 Pontiac Lemans Convertible! The vehicle has been in a cosmetic restoration process for about 2 years on and off. It is about 80%-85%. Over 100 hours have been put into the current restoration of this vehicle. The body is clean and in pretty good shape, as you can see from the photos, and must be seen to appreciate. The motor is a 1970 Pontiac 400 GTO Motor.  I had it completely re-machined by JGM Motors in Valencia. Bored .030 Over, Ground Crank, New Pistons, Rings, Lifters, Rods, and Cam, etc... EVERYTHING! I have only put about 20 miles on the motor. still breaking it in and seating the rings, I have been keeping the RPM's low during break in and would continue this for the first 500+ miles.  But it will get up and go! The original motor was rated at 375 Hp. There are too many things to list that have been done, but I will list the major items below. The only thing left to do is paint it the color you want, and possibly replace the top at some point.

New Front End Suspension-Complete, Including New Hotchkis Sway Bar and Springs.
New Rear Shocks
New Front Disc Brake Conversion
New Convertible Top Cylinders
New Kenwood Stereo, 12" JL Audio Bass & 250 Watt Amp, Infinity Rear Speakers 
Rebuilt Original Clock
New 2 1/2" Custom Exhaust System
Original Bumper Jack & Matching Spare
Original Seat Belts
1970 Pontiac 400 GTO Motor, Remachined, Rebuilt, Installed.

There are many other things that have been replaced, repaired, rebuilt, detailed, etc... and there is certainly things left to do depending on what you want to do with the car, i.e. Drive or Show. I have over $18K invested in this car, but I have another project car that I also want to start on, and my wife says I can only have one!! (Can you believe that!, plus my garage only holds one!) The car is priced to sell, my loss is you gain. If you would like any other photos or would like to come and see the car in person, (I would recommend personally inspecting car to appreciate!) please email me. I can show the car after 6pm during the week or on the weekend.

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am

Wed, 15 May 2013

When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM

Fri, 16 Oct 2009

Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
