1964 Pontiac Bonneville Two Door on 2040-cars
Fortuna, California, United States
|
This Bonneville has spent it's entire life in California. It was built in Southern California and has spent time there and in Northern California. It has an original NASA sticker on the back bumper and I believe that the original owner worked there in Pasadena. I purchased it out of Venice California and it now resides in very Northern California. Has original rear black and yellow plate, front plate is a copy. I was told that the paint is original but I do not think so. The finish is very nice however. The interior is original and very nice and clean. There is only one tear on the passenger side seat seam. I found the original steering wheel in the trunk and put it back on. the steering wheel has the typical cracking. Dash is very nice, some interior chrome has minor pitting. Wood is good on dash panel and dash top is beautiful. It had chrome wheels when I bought it but I put on used Pontiac wheels (sand blasted and painted) and found four nice hub caps to add to the originality. It has 50,700 miles on it. Person I bought the car from says miles are original. The horn and radio do not work. The front seat is power and does work. Air cleaner is chrome. Valve covers are not original, the originals are in the trunk. (I painted the valve covers Pontiac aqua and the air cleaner is black) The engine runs fine but can take a few pumps of gas to start. Throaty sound. No rust issues except for the trunk. Leaks oil one drop a week. I am getting out of the old car hobby. I have sold three other old cars. I prefer not to sell out of the United States this time around as two of the three I sold went to France and Australia and it was a huge headache. This car has the power! Probably needs alignment as it pulls to the right when braking. I am not a mechanic and do not work on my own cars so I cannot tell you a whole lot about the mechanics but will answer what I can.Please email me if you want my phone number. And email me for specific pictures. I hope to add more before the auction ends. The Bonneville is in Fortuna, CA. Humboldt County. About 125 miles south of the Oregon border, ten miles from the ocean. PS Ignore date on the pictures. They were taken week of May 10 2014. I cannot get the camera to change the date.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later
Fri, 12 Sep 2014
Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
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.
