1966 Pontiac Gto 2dr Hardtop, 4 Speed Manual, Rare Bw Code Exterior Color on 2040-cars
Gresham, Oregon, United States
|
This GTO will make a new owner interested in restoring it to its natural beauty is certainly a worthwhile Project. It began its life in Fremont California and was sold by a Pontiac Dealer in San Francisco. Copies of the PHS Documents accompany this sale. It appears to have lived its life on the West coast as it still has the California Black license plate. Car is presently in Portland Oregon. I have only seen one 1966 GTO with the Color code BW which is a Dark Blue Charcoal lower portion and a Platinum upper color. The elegance of that color is like looking at a Rolls-Royce which uses a lot of the dark/light combinations. After seeing it on a GTO for the first time, I immediately became a fan. Over the years, this GTO, has been rode hard and put away wet, so to speak, by a bunch of dreamers. I purchased the car out of Western Washington which is hot and dry climate, though I do not know how long it was there. My reason for buying it was to part it out for my other projects, seeing as how it was t-boned in the passenger side rear. After reviewing the the total car, I do not feel it is a candidate for destruction. I have talked to several auto body guys and they agree that it can be readily repaired without using a quarter panel or a donor body. The GTO has solid floors including the trunk. The Frame is solid and has light surface rust in expected areas. The T-boned right frame rail extension will need straightened or replaced. The tail light housings are still good and possibly both the lens are good , one for sure, but right side grill covering lens is toast.
The Hood, passenger fender, doors, all glass, bumper, most chrome pieces, grills, header panel, core support, inner fender wells, head light housings and bezels, roof section, driver rear quarter, major frame rails, cowl section, steering wheel chrome, rear end, front bumper, gas tank are all good usable parts, plus many more not mentioned, considering the age of most of those items. Note the passenger door main window is missing, the the internal working parts are all intact. Originally the GTO came with options that have been removed or replaced. The passenger reclining seat, Rally wheels, 3;55 safe-track rear end ( now has a 3:25) (not sure about safety track working), radio, speakers, original WT motor and 4 speed transmission are not there. Presently has a non original Pontiac V 8 motor with a automatic transmission that is dropped in the slot. Have no history on motor or transmission, and assume they do not run. The manual pedals are still in place. All of those missing items are available to purchase in most cases. Might take some doing to get a reclining passenger seat. The Drivers fender is toast. A portion of the rear window side piece has been removed as shown in the pictures and I do not have a clue. Needs to be repaired. Those of you that are interested, and have questions, may contact me either through this posting or call me 360-773-3887 ask for RD. Please do not bid if you do not intend to purchase this GTO.

How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.
Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative
Tue, 29 Oct 2013How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?

It's possible that the for lap belt pretensioner to retract but not to lock, which could increase occupant movement during a crash. Both front, outboard lap belt pretensioners are being replaced, and a stop-sale is in effect on unsold models until the problem is repaired. There are no known crashes or injuries, though.
