1964 Pontiac Le Mans Convertible With Gto Badging on 2040-cars

1964 Pontiac Le Mans with GTO badging This is a great example of the beginning of the Muscle Car generation! A great car you can get in, turn the key and drive off in. Mechanically, there is nothing wrong with this vehicle - it starts and runs just as its supposed to, and sounds just like a true muscle car is supposed to sound! In the ten years we've owned this car, we haven't done anything to the cosmetics to refurbish or restore the car beyond its current condition. However, as you can see from the photographs, the car looks beautiful and the interior is almost 95% original with the original vinyl seats. The only thing I know is not original are the two kick panels with speakers. The radio in the dash is original, however the guts were removed and replaced with a solid state chassis and mated to an XM tuner in the glove compartment. The car is 51 years old and probably drives just as it did when new (which is not what you'ld expect if you've never driven a car from the sixties era). We have done regular maintenance on this car and when necessary, we've replaced mechanical components that needed repair or replacement including rebuilding the automatic transmission approximately five years ago and replacing most of the suspension components about three years ago. The car has GTO badging on the body outside and inside the doors and dash as well as a tri-power carburetor set up on the original 326 V-8 engine. The mileage is showing 54,107 and I believe that may be accurate - before we owned this car it sat on blocks in someone's garage in St. Louis, MO. We brought it to dry El Paso, TX where its been driven perhaps twice a month and stored in a garage 100% of the time. The car is insured for "stated value" and the insurance company placed a $25,000 value on the car. We are willing to see it sell for substantially less, but we're not going to give it away. If you have a question about where our reserve might be, or wish to make an offer for an early sale, write us. The car is also listed locally and we reserve the right to cancel this listing early if the car is sold locally. If you are the successful buyer, you will need to paypal a $500.00 non refundable deposit within 24 hours and pay the balance within 3 business days via wire transfer or cashier check. If the final payment is by cashier check, we will hold up delivery of the car until our bank has assured us the check (even cashier checks) has cleared. You are responsible for arranging shipping on this car, but we're happy to help in the process by making the car available for pick up whenever necessary. But, please don't arrange to pick up the car until we have assured you that all funds have cleared. The title is a clear Texas title and we will deliver the signed title and any documents necessary for you to transfer title in your state. For shipping purposes the car is located in the 79912 zip code. |

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM
Fri, 16 Oct 2009Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
Aficionauto sits down with The Hoff and KITT
Fri, 10 Oct 2014The latest video from The Aficionauto is the perfect palate cleanser for Knight Rider fans after finding out that Justin Bieber is the voice of KITT in an upcoming film. Host Christopher Rutkowski says that the Knight Industries Two Thousand is one of the most requested vehicles to appear on the series and for good reason - Michael Knight's Pontiac Trans-Am is among the most famous cars to ever appear on television.
While the video isn't able to showcase one of the original KITTs from the series, it does get star David Hasselhoff to drive his personal replica and talk about the lasting legacy of the show. The highlight here might be seeing The Hoff back behind the wheel in the open desert basically recreating Knight Rider's opening sequence.
With all of its flashing lights and gizmos, you can probably make the argument that KITT is pretty cheesy, and the show itself was never exactly a pillar of high-quality drama on television. Despite that, the series still provides a ton of good-natured fun, and The Hoff's continued enthusiasm for it is pretty infectious. Check out The Aficionauto video to take another ride with Knight Rider.
