1989 Pontiac Trans Am GTA Convertible
Located in Cooperstown,NY with the VERY RARE factory 5.7L (350 c.i.). There is believed to be 1 of 35 in the Firebird/Trans Am/GTA series and 15 Formulas totaling 50 units that were built before ASC realized they were converting 5.7L's. The 5.7 T-Top cars were only built by Pontiac in 1989. ASC only converted T-Top Camaros for Chevrolet factory orders that were shipped directly to ASC and then converted. Firebird series were converted for Pontiac Dealers after they were shipped to the Pontiac dealers and the dealer set up the conversion adding about $15,000 to the sticker price. ASC only converted third generation cars with the 5 Liter because of the lower Torque. If you want to come look at it call me or send an email. It has the tan leather with a bright red body that are orig. colors with a black top. Note: As per ASC records it was built with a tan top but was replaced at some point to a black canvas top. It was a Florida car until about 2008 when it went to CT and it had a professional re-paint. The only thing I would do to it is replace the rear seatbelts as they are discolored and the transmission mount needs to be changed. I have had four Third Generation Chevrolet Camaro Iroc Z-28s and Pontiac Trans Am GTAs and had to change each one. I have a new Poly mount but have not gotten around to changing it. On that year the rear belts were mounted on the rigid convertible top boot. The tires are brand new and the wheels were reconditioned with the correct WS6 center caps and everything works. It runs very smooth. If you are interested in it call me. The only reason for selling is my storage is tight. The car has a well documented CARFAX on hand. Mileage listed is belived to be what is on it know give or take a couple of hundred miles. It is in storage at this time and I can't get there to exact with the mileage on the odometer. |

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Generation 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.
Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bob 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.
1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction
Mon, 01 Aug 2011For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.
