1969 Pontiac Gto on 2040-cars
Grand Prairie, Texas, United States
If you have any questions feel free to email me at: silvana_alphin@zoho.com . This beautiful 1969 GTO is a rare find. It's well maintained in and out, has recently been tuned and serviced so it
needs nothing. The red exterior and beige interior are a very nice combination, and are in great shape. This is a
True GTO, the VIN is 242379B135237.
The original 400 V8 puts out over 400 horsepower. It was rebuilt, bored .30 over and got an upgraded cam shaft.
Again, this is the original, numbers matching engine. The points on the distributor were replaced with an
electronic ignition system. An MSD box was professionally installed, complete with a rev-limiter to preserve the
engine. The 4 barrel Edelbrock carburetor is new, along with the entire fuel system. I had the fuel lines, the fuel
pump and fuel sending unit, as well as the fuel filters replaced, and the fuel tank got a rebuild and locking gas
cap. I also added a new battery, new starter and sparkplugs/wires.
The Automatic transmission is original, and is a 3 speed His/Hers with a Hurst package, and was just recently
serviced. It shifts up and down very smoothly even under full throttle. It has a very solid, factory feel, and I
will attribute that to the fact that the car has less than 40K original miles on it.
The interior is Beige and the leather is in good shape. Disclosure: The carpet is original and it used to be red.
This is the only thing on the car that could use replacing, but it's still decent and clean. The gauges and
instruments all work properly. This appears to be a non-smoker car, as the cigarette lighter and ashtrays have no
wear on them. I have all of the PHS documents for this car, and It appears that the first owner ordered the car
with a special package that consisted of 17 options, some of which were new to this model year. I will list all the
factory options eventually, but it has:
Safe-T track, Wonder-touch Steering, Cruise Control, Defroster Front/Rear, Power door locks, Power driver's seat,
Power antenna, and Air Conditioning, just to name a few. The 15 inch American Racing Wheels are chrome, and the
tires are new on the rear and fairly new on the front. Replaced and upgraded the brake lines and pads recently, so
this car drives and handles exceptionally well.
I am by no means saying that this car is show-room condition, but it's good at the very least. I would be happy to
answer any questions you may have.

Burt Reynolds' personal 1977 Trans-Am from Smokey And The Bandit for sale
Fri, Dec 5 2014Smokey and the Bandit is one of those quintessential 1970s car movies with insane premises but tons of fun. After all, the basic plot of the film is about distracting the police to transport cases of Coors beer cross country. While Burt Reynolds receives top billing, the real star is definitely his black Pontiac Trans-Am. Now, there's a chance to posses one of these muscle machines actually owned by Reynolds, and it's already proving quite popular. The car is a '77 Trans-Am with the famous, gold screaming chicken proudly on the hood. However, while this is a piece of Reynolds memorabilia, it's not really part of cinematic history. According to the listing, this example was used as a promotional vehicle and then given to Reynolds with a title showing him as a previous owner for proof. Still, there's 400-cubic-inch (6.55-liter) V8 under the hood with a 4-barrel carburetor and an automatic transmission. A plaque inside the driver's door proclaims the car as a "1977 Pontiac Trans Am Owned By Burt Reynolds," and there's a Bandit logo on the door. This is just one lot of Julien Auction's sale of Reynolds memorabilia on December 11 and 12 at The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, NV. Bidding is already running online, and the Trans-Am is up to $130,000, as of this writing. For the true Reynolds fanatic, the auction also lists the motorized stagecoach from his wedding to Loni Anderson. It rides built on an International Harvester Scout frame with an interior reportedly from Dolly Parton.
What's driving the spike in air-cooled Porsche 911 prices
Thu, Mar 26 2015Classic car prices have been racing skyward in general, but prices for air-cooled (pre-1999) Porsche 911s are ascending like they're strapped to rocket boosters. It's been going on for years, and every year people are surprised by how outrageous it's getting: Classic Driver covered it this month, as did The Truth About Cars who included this example of a "scruffy" 1993 RS America with 215,000 miles asking $80K; Mike Spinelli at Drive riffed on it at length last year along with a host of classic-car-market observers; Porsche forums were at it two years ago; and let's not even get into the 993 Turbo, going for prices so high you have to lie down to look at them. Speed Academy has run a piece looking at why it's happening, one theory being that regular-guy owners are hopping on the runaway-price wagon without any good reason. As in the example of that high-mileage, scruffy 911 RS America at Bring a Trailer, the owner sees pristine examples valued by Hagerty at $170,000, and even though the average value is $93,238 he thinks something like, "Mine's got to be worth half of top dollar ..." The tide - even one rising on air - makes it hard to find decent prices. Then there is the flood of money into the market. In spite of articles that try to temper investors' outlooks on collectible cars, other articles in places like the Financial Times and the Guardian promote vintage metal as a safe place to put money and reap astonishing returns. Speed Academy thinks one side effect of high 911 prices is that responsible enthusiasts are turning their attention to cars like the BMW 2002, E30 M3, and E9 3.0CS, saying their prices are "sharply on the rise." The entire article is worth a read since it goes into markets far afield from pricey German steel, but incredibly, the entire piece was actually inspired by a 1997 Acura Integra R that sold for $43,000 on eBay. So while this could be the best time to get into the classic car market if you know what you're doing, it is certainly the best time to do your homework. Related Video:
2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
