I have a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible. The motor is a non matching numbers WT engine from a 1967 GTO, just not this one. The engine was built for speed and it has plenty of it. I have invested $5000 in the engine rebuild alone, plus the price of the engine. The engine was bored 30 over, has a HEI ignition and crossover exhaust plus ram air 3 exhaust manifolds from a 69 GTO. The performance of this GTO will nor disappoint. I have installed a crossover exhaust system that gives it that nice sound , coupled with the slightly rough idle that we are used too. The car is not a show car, but it looks really good and I have won trophies at local car shows. This car has about a 10 foot paint job with a few flaws. It does have oil leaks , burns gas and tires. The interior has all been recovered and looks great. The top is new and is a Robbins, the top pump and lines are both new, and work perfectly. The speedo jumps when you hot 45 miles an hour . The starter is an original starter, my high torque went bad, so I threw in my old one, so the car wont start when its hot, slow cranks, I might replace it, maybe. Just about everything on this car is new, I bought it as a rolling chassis and replaced everything. New wiring harness, windshield, dash pad, instrument cluster (not the speedo) am radio is converted to am/fm.,new carpets . I want to emphasize this is a fast car ,a really nice driver, not a trailer queen. The original colors were gold and black top. The only options were rally 1 wheels, sport wheel, and the console. I added power steering, power front disc brakes, a newly rebuilt steering column. I will help as much as I can with shipping. I will entertain trades, project cars plus cash (especially GTO convertibles with automatic trans). Only interested in 60's muscle cars, or possibly a low mileage ,early 90's Dodge Viper, I have a boat. Don't want another. Might end the auction early as I have the car listed locally. I have the PHS documentation for the car. There was body work done on the car, not by me, frame is sold and underneath is clean. I will take more pictures if you need them. Thanks.

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."

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

Steve McQueen barn find: Movie Trans Am surfaces after almost 40 years

Mon, Dec 17 2018

An important Steve McQueen film car has emerged from barn storage. No, it's not yet another " Bullitt" Mustang, quite the contrary: The car in question is a 1980 Pontiac Trans Am, and it starred in McQueen's final film, " The Hunter." In the movie, McQueen plays a bounty hunter, and while in " Bullitt" he's quite the wheelman, that's not the case in this one. McQueen's character, "Papa" Thorson, is a horrible driver, and the Trans Am is far too much car for him. A chase sequence sees McQueen driving a combine harvester to catch the perps who are driving his stolen rental Pontiac, and the Trans Am ends up blown in half with dynamite, then returned to the airport on a trailer. The driver of said GMC truck and trailer combination, Harold McQueen (no relation), received the title of the first car used in filming, and for the following decades planned to fix the now-ruined car, but never got around to it. Instead, the 1,300-mile Pontiac wreck sat on a farm for nearly 40 years, until Harold decided to sell it to an enthusiast. There's studio documentation proving the car's pedigree, and stunt modifications can be seen in the Pontiac's floor and dash. While it's obviously in dreadful condition, the car remained more intact than the other stunt car the film crew blew up even more spectacularly — that car ended up as the pile of parts in the airport scene, and those bits and pieces were eventually dropped off at a junkyard after a Pontiac dealer refused them. McQueen did also drive a 1951 Chevrolet in the film, and kept that yellow convertible after filming was wrapped up. Sadly, he was diagnosed with cancer just a month later, after reportedly being in poor health during the shooting, and passed away in December 1980. The yellow Chevy stayed with his estate for some years, later getting restored and auctioned. Right now, it's not clear what the Trans Am's fate will be. The car's current owner, Calvin Riggs from Carlyle Motors in Katy, Texas, wants to know more about the Trans Am and the film shoot: His post on Hemmings includes a lot of information, but more would be useful.
