 This is a documented 1962 Grand Prix which I purchased almost two decades ago. It has resided in a climate controlled garage since that time and is all original and factory stock. This car is documented with PHS Documents as well as the original buyer's order and 'Dealer Invoice'. These Pennsylvania documents confirms all the options as delineated in the PHS papers and also confirms the original Pennsylvania dealer as per the PHS window sticker. The miles are original and the speedometer has NOT rolled over. I am happy to provide, to the next owner, notarized documents to affirm this claim. In 1962 Pontiac offered the Grand Prix with three high powered engines; the option code 425 @ 318 horsepwoer and the 425A @ 348 horsepower. This is the higher horsepower engine. Built about April of 1962, the 4 speed was a late available option. The car is Bomar Red which Chevrolet called Hondouras Maroon and has an interior to match. This is the real deal and is not a 'built car' to replicate or be a 'tribute' to the real thing. The original rubber factroy floor mats still reside on the floor and appear as new.  At 71 years old, I am reducing my collection and am offering it at NO RESERVE for the seven day auction. I will provide, to the new owner, a valid Florida title documenting this mileage as 'actual'. The tri-power engine performs flawlessly and the vehicle displays all factory correct parts which are numbered correct to this vehicle.m All parts are factory Pontiac and the vehicle, from the tri-power air cleaner to the factory dual exhaust is extremely correct. Recent overhaul of the complete brake system, with the correct 'thumb screw' master cylinder has been accomplished.   Please view the photos, ask questions and evaluate this factory correct piece of history. Call me for specifics that have not been addressed. Thank you, Respectfully, Wellington Morton (904) 230-4448. (PS: I do not accept PayPal and require cash or certified funds before release of my car. It is expected that transfer will take place in one week following the end of this offering.)

Thank you for your phone inquiry. The carpets are all original and exhibit no wear; same for the door panels and headliner. I can see no wear to the interior arm rests and the steering wheel still has perfect 'clear' Lexon, void or any scars or cracks. And yes that is the factory installed tachometer on the center console.

This massive 'Knight Rider' KITT model costs over $1,400

Tue, May 18 2021

A new model of the famed Pontiac Firebird from the 1980s TV show Knight Rider is here, and it's massive. The shadowy flight into the dangerous world of this subscription-based kit by DeAgostini will result in a car that measures nearly two feet long, cost more than $1,400, and take you over two years to complete. For years, subscription-based model kits have been a tradition for hobbyists in Europe and Asia. Should you sign on, each week you'll receive a package in the mail that includes a few parts for the model and some literature on the subject. Usually there are additional collectibles and accessories, like a display case. The DeAgostini KITT kit, for example, begins with the hood for the first issue. The asymmetric bulged and scooped body panel comes with a several smaller body pieces and a small screwdriver. Issue two comes with the front fascia, KITT's red scanner light, and three of the six driving lights. Issue three gives you a tire, wheel and brake components for one of the four corners. And so it goes. When all is said and done, you'll receive 110 such packages over a span of so many weeks. In other words it'll take two years and one-and-a-half months to complete the black, 1:8 scale Pontiac. There are some discounted prices for the first few issues to get you hooked, but once you get settled in the regular price for each issue is ˆ10.99 ($13.36 USD). Here's a preview the 16-page pamphlet that accompanies the first issue. By the end, you should have a pretty comprehensive compendium of the Knight Rider series as well. The issues are available on newsstands, but subscribers get additional gifts — two 1:43 scale models, one of KITT and one of his nemesis KARR. And for an additional ˆ1.00 per issue, you'll receive an acrylic display case. As for the Knight Industries Two Thousand itself, the car appears to be incredibly detailed. As depicted on the DeAgostini website, the hood, doors, trunk and T-top roof panels all open. The red scanner lights up, the rear license plate rotates for three options, and there even seems to be a watch that commands the model to speak some of KITT's catch phrases. Knight Rider — or Supercar as it was called in Italy — told the episodic story of a former police officer, Michael Knight, who fought crime with his A.I.-powered car. As such, the TV car and the the model have a heavily computerized (by 1980s standards) dashboard and yoke steering wheel.

Even Ferrari swept up in latest Takata recall expansion

Fri, May 27 2016

The scope of Takata's deadly airbag problems continues to widen. Eight manufacturers announced recalls Friday that affect more than 12 million vehicles, according to documents filed with federal regulators. The automakers include Honda, which is recalling 4.5 million units, Fiat Chrysler with 4.3 million, Toyota with 1.65 million, and Subaru, which is recalling almost 400,000. Some of these cars include the Saab 9-2x and Pontiac Vibe that Toyota and Subaru made for General Motors. Mazda will recall 730,000 vehicles and Nissan has 400,000 affected units. The smallest numbers were posted by Mitsubishi, with 38,000 Lancers manufactured from 2006 to 2007, and as a noteworthy high-end manufacturer, Ferrari is calling back 2,800 vehicles. These are all US-market cars. Beyond America, the Japanese Transport Ministry has announced seven million additional vehicles will be recalled, which means 19.6 million vehicles across the globe are affected by recalls announced. The defects have been traced to an insufficiently manufactured airbag inflator, which lacks a drying agent that would prevent the inflators from deteriorating over time. Thirteen deaths have been linked to the faulty airbags, which have become unstable and are prone to exploding and showering vehicle occupants with lethal amounts of metal shrapnel. A private equity firm, KKR & Co., has been named in a possible buyout of the struggling Takata.

Florida man runs down bikers in traffic

Tue, May 31 2016

A Florida biker and his passenger got a nasty surprise when a road rage incident turned ugly on Monday. According to WTSP, Joe Calderazzo was returning from a Veterans Memorial Day motorcycle rally around 5:30 pm with a group of fellow riders. During their ride, the group got entangled with an overly aggressive driver in a Pontiac. Abe Garcia of Tampa watched the silver Pontiac attempt to run the pack of bikers off the road, which started the altercation. The bikers caught up to the Pontiac in stopped traffic, and a shouting match ensued between the bikers and the Pontiac driver. At this point, Garcia pulled out his phone and started recording. The exchange escalated, and suddenly the Pontiac driver floored it, turned hard to the right, and ran over Calderazzo's Harley. The Pontiac mangled the Harley and knocked Calderazzo and his passenger to the ground. The Pontiac then fled the scene. WTSP spoke to Calderazzo as he was on his way to the hospital. "I thought the guy was trying to kill us obviously," said Calderazzo. "You know you don't know what's going through your mind. Is he going to put the car in reverse? Is he going to turn around? Is he going to stop and pull out a gun? You don't know what's going on." The Pontiac driver, a serial traffic offender named Robert Paul Vance, was picked up by police soon after the incident. He is charged with hit-and-run, a moving traffic violation, and aggravated battery.
