Low Reserve.....! Hello, up for sale is my Absolutely beautiful 1969 Tempest/Lemans "GTO" Tribute Car. Hopefully the pictures I've taken of the car illustrate just how nice the car is. This is an original California Car, built in Fremont Ca. And sold to its first owner in Hawthorne Ca. I bought the car from the 3rd owner here in Central California. Note, all previous owners took outstanding care of this car and I have the original Protect-O-Plate, maintenance receipts, original Manuals and Pontiac Warranty Card which help demonstrate. After reviewing all the information (Maintenance Receipts), that came with the car I believe it to be an original 85,000 mile car. This is truly a one of a kind Resto'mod, this is a 69' Tempest/Lemans that has several of the GTO features added to it, such as the GTO Hood, 455 Pontiac Motor, Muncie 4-speed Transmission. "This is a complete ground up restoration", the entire suspension has been upgraded, new spring, shocks, bushing, control arms, front and rear sway bars and front disc brake conversion. The engine is a 4-bolt main 455, block number "9799140" that's been rebuilt and rated at approximately 370 horsepower. The 4-speed Muncie Transmission is new, to include new clutch and Hurst Shifter. Under the hood you'll find brushed aluminum pulleys, hood hinges, brake master cylinder, M/T valve covers, alternator, and power steering pump. You'll also find a MSD ignition, 4-core aluminum radiator, and double electric fans. 4-barrel carburetor, and Hooker Headers. All the work done on this car was done professionally, with every aspect thought out and planned carefully. The interior of the Car has been completely redone, new after market gauges. It has black carpeting, dash, door panels, and headliner. The seats are done in vinyl, charcoal grey with medium grey ported inserts. The exterior paint color, Med. Grey Metallic coordinates very well with the interior and gets constant complements wherever I go. The exhaust is new and sounds great. It has chrome exhaust tips added. The Stainless Steel gas tank is new also. All the interior gauges work, as do all lights and wipers. It has the factory radio in place, however it doesn't have speakers installed. The car has no leaks. I'm sure I've failed to mention some other characteristics of the car but hopefully you get the general idea of this car's overall great condition. This car more than just competes with true GTO's of the same era, in my opinion it blows away many of them. This is an opportunity to own a 455, 4-speed GTO tribute car for a fraction of the cost of a true GTO. There's no way for me to recoup all the time and money that's gone into this car but I'm ready to sale. I'm motivated to sell so I'll consider all reasonable offers. The car is being sold as is with no warranty given or implied, I have the car listed locally and reserve the right to end the listing early if a qualified offer is received. You can call me for more questions, or offers thanks, Billy 661-340-3497. |

GM recalling 778,000 Cobalts and G5s, six deaths reported
Thu, 13 Feb 2014General Motors has announced that it will be recalling 778,562 compact cars after six people were killed in accidents, partially due to the airbags' failure to deploy. An issue with the ignition switch is causing the airbag issues, as well as causing the engine and other components to shut off without warning. The recall covers the 2005 to 2007 model year Chevrolet Cobalt and 2007 Pontiac G5. (Note that the Cobalt pictured above is a 2009 model.)
According to a report from Automotive News, a number of factors can cause the ignition to switch out of the run position, including weights on the key ring, rough or bumpy roads or other "jarring" events. Any of these situations could lead to some vehicle components not functioning properly.
There have been five fatal front-impact crashes that took the lives of six people, although as a GM spokesman noted, all five of the crashes happened off road and at high speed. In each of these cases, though, the lack of airbags wasn't the only lethal factor - alcohol and failure to wear a seat belt also played a role. Outside of the fatal accidents, there have been 17 other crashes where airbags didn't deploy. It's unclear if any of these crashes were caused by the engine shutting off.
General Lee takes on Bandit T/A in classic Hollywood car showdown [w/poll]
Fri, 26 Aug 2011You don't have to be born in the 1960s or 1970s to be able to recognize the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard and the Pontiac Trans Am from Smokey and the Bandit. These old school four-wheeled stars seem to transcend demographics thanks to the miles of film that show the orange 1969 Dodge Charger and the jet-black 1977 Pontiac Trans Am performing seemingly impossible stunts.
The folks at Hot Rod magazine are obviously hip to this fact, and they put together a fun video in tribute of the instantly recognizable duo. Hit the jump to watch on as Sam Young and James Smith replace Bo Duke and The Bandit for a bit of dirt-road shenanigans in a pair of otherwise well cared for classics. We're not so sure we'd call it the best chase scene ever, but it sure looks like a lot of fun.
More importantly, which of these two cars would you rather own? Have your say in our poll below.
Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Here comes the Judge. Court is in session. The verdict is in. How many more tired clichés can we come up with? It hardly seems to matter, because it's happening: Trans Am Depot has announced via the teaser video below that it is launching a 2014 GTO, complete with Carousel Red (bright orange, really) paint and full Judge badging.
The car is based on Trans Am Depot's 6T9 Goat, which, in case you don't get the reverential references, is meant to mimic the look of the 1969 Pontiac GTO. As with the company's other cars -including the 2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am we recently drove - the GTO will be based on the current Chevy Camaro, which means two doors, V8 engines and rear-wheel drive, just like the muscle cars of days past.
As for actual details of what's under the 2014 GTO's hood, we're completely left hanging. We'd expect some sort of power adder (turbo, supercharger or possibly some other form of a highly massaged version of the Camaro's V8), and we certainly know that GM has any number of hi-po crate engines to choose from.
