Beautifully restored 1970 Pontiac tempest. Upgraded to a 400 cubic inch V8 and 4 speed hurst transmission (same set up as a 1970 GTO), weld racing wheels, k&n air filter, edelbrock 4brl carb.  Not a Utah original car and never driven in snow and there's no rust hiding under the paint!  Less than 15k miles since complete rebuild.  Ready for summer car shows or drag strip!  Factory a/c, Dual exhaust with flowmaster mufflers, sounds awesome (not ghetto awesome, legit awesome!). Just replaced battery, starter, and fuel pump.  Has always been garage kept and well maintained.  Car was stored for the last 6 years, that's why the items listed as new were replaced. Car is in good working condition and is fun to drive. Also have a ram-air GTO hood that is not painted that can be included with purchase if buyer wants to upgrade the car further


Disclosure on known items:
- has minor oil leak from engine (few drops after driving then stops dripping)
- factory a/c is not hooked up to engine belt (never hooked up since I've owned it)
- dual exhaust terminates immediately after mufflers (makes for great sound but may not be legal in all states)
- aftermarket tachometer not working (worked before it was stored, not sure why it isn't working now)
- car does not have a horn
- paint job is 8/10. One small bubble on hood about 3/4" hard to see unless the light hits it right. 3 small chips in paint around car under 1/8" each.
- grill inserts were removed during painting, auto body guy broke clips so they were not re-installed but are included with purchase.
- tires have about 40% life remaining

GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes

Mon, 31 Mar 2014

When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile

Sun, 29 Apr 2012

Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
