I am a huge fan of 64 Pontiacs.  I am selling this car because I bought a 64 Safari...otherwise, I would not sell it.  The car needs a few things, but has a lot of good things going for it. This is not "like an impala" nor is it the GTO's big brother.  This was simply Pontiacs best full size trim line car, as far as I know, and likely one of the best looking cars of the 60's.  The interiors are spectacular, the lines are great by most car folks' opinion and the ride of the 64 Pontiac is very hard to beat.  


I bought it last year in Oregon, prior to that, I was told the car spent most of its life in Las Vegas.  I believe the car was built in California.  

The car needs the following:  a brake/wheel cylinder is bad...brakes stick, I would drive to a neighboring state or further without any hesitation, but that is a bit risky..because of the brakes. The headliner and carpet are bad, the rear passenger window was stuck down when I bought it and the car got wet inside messing up the carpet and headliner as well. The trunk has rust, but looks so nice like it is, and is solid. I would leave it alone.... its dry and looks good/original.  I did put a water pump on it, and that is all I have done to the car.  I have driven it no more than10 miles, but it runs so smooth and shifts so good.  No funny noises or hesitations, no smoke, no knocks, no ticks...none.  It steers extremely well, and is not a rattle trap, its very quiet.  I know these cars well, and it is a good one.  Not a high miles wore out junker.  The wipers are quiet on the windshield as well.... i ran them when I washed it today.   The front bumper is as nice as I have ever seen and its around 1500 bucks just to get one to look like this (re-chromed) The stainless and other chrome (except a spot on the rear bumper) is in SUPER SHAPE... I mean SUPER.  The body DOES NOT HAVE A DENT... LET ME BE VERY CLEAR... IT DOES NOT HAVE A DENT.  The car is almost 50 years old, and again... DOES NOT HAVE A DENT.  The re-paint paint job is faded but looks fine because again.. the car is super straight and the chrome and stainless shine so well. It does have one panel repainted, but i took a photo of the inside of the trunk and you can see it was never bashed in or anything major.  The dash is cracked, the front seat is not perfect.  The door panels are as nice as I have ever seen...WOW... so nice.  the drivers window was slowly working, not now.. the others are slow or need help up... need to be lubricated on the tracks for sure.  The engine and transmission are strong.  The car looks really nice.  I took photos of the car after I washed it, and once it was dry as well.  The right rear tire was pretty low, but its pumped up now and holds air just fine.. car has been sitting in my garage for close to a year and I drove it out without any issues at all.  Starts up nice.  NO SMOKE, NO TICKS, NO CARB ISSUES, no slowly turning over, no smells, etc.  No cracked glass or hazing either, nice factory green tinted glass.  Tires are good, not rotten or bald, not perfect or new either...  I did not look at the spare, but its likely an old bias ply, and the jack is in the trunk factory mounted.  I am pretty sure its 103k miles as the door panels, glass, chrome, and rubber on the pedals seem to tell that kind of story/miles... not double that.   

I do not expect the car to go for much, but be assured, you would spend a lot of time looking for one with a body this nice, the trim and chrome and running condition.  It needs a couple things as I mentioned, but this is a good car.  Not a junk yard cover up job.  
I just finally put it in my name, so the title is about 1 week away.  Likely by the time the auction is ending, I will have it.  

Dont waste my time or yours.  If you bid, bid to win.  Put the deposit down, and pay for it as required. This is not a high dollar/need a loan kind of car...lets treat it like that...  

You cant restore it at my house, eat dinner and take a shower here, and ask me to do all kinds of other things.. this is a low dollar car purchase.  I like getting a deal, and this will be a deal to whoever wins...  low reserve.  I often lower the buy it now and reserve to get instant gratification.. so watch closely.   Thanks for reading this far. If you live in Oregon or Washington, perhaps another state somewhat near here, I may be able to deliver it cheaper than a car hauler etc.  JUST ASK ME or MAKE AN OFFER.....   David

GM isn't liable for punitive damages in ignition switch cases

Wed, Nov 20 2019

NEW YORK — A federal appeals court said General Motors is not liable for punitive damages over accidents that occurred after its 2009 bankruptcy and involved vehicles it produced earlier, including vehicles with faulty ignition switches. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan said on Tuesday that the automaker did not agree to contractually assume liability for punitive damages as part of its federally-backed Chapter 11 reorganization. GM filed for bankruptcy in June 2009, and its best assets were transferred to a new Detroit-based company with the same name. The other assets and many liabilities stayed with "Old GM," which is also known as Motors Liquidation Co. Tuesday's 3-0 decision may help GM reduce its ultimate exposure in nationwide litigation over defective ignition switches in several Chevrolet, Pontiac and Saturn models. It is also a defeat for drivers involved in post-bankruptcy accidents, including those who collided with older GM vehicles driven by others, as well as their law firms. The ignition switch defect could cause engine stalls and keep airbags from deploying, and has been linked to 124 deaths. A lawyer for the drivers and their law firms did not immediately respond to requests for comment. GM had no comment. Circuit Judge Dennis Jacobs said GM's agreement to acquire assets "free and clear" of most liabilities excused it from punitive damages claims for Old GM's conduct. He also noted that the judge who oversaw the bankruptcy concluded that the new company could not be liable for claims that the "deeply insolvent" Old GM would never have paid. The decision upheld a May 2018 ruling by U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman in Manhattan, who oversees the ignition switch litigation. Drivers have sought a variety of damages in that litigation, including for declining resale values. GM has recalled more than 2.6 million vehicles since 2014 over ignition switch problems. It has also paid more than $2.6 billion in related penalties and settlements, including $900 million to settle a U.S. Department of Justice criminal case. The case is In re: Motors Liquidation Co, 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, No. 18-1940. Government/Legal Chevrolet Pontiac Saturn Safety gm ignition switch

Classic Pontiac Trans Am Firebird Super Duty 455 sells for nearly $90,000

Fri, Aug 25 2023

Historically, the Pontiac Firebird Trans Am raised the performance levels a notch or two over a plain Firebird in the muscle car hierarchy of the Sixties. But the Super Duty 455 version of the Trans Am — that number represents the cubic inches of the hand-assembled V8 engine — moved the performance needle big time in 1974. So much so that a clean example of the machine sold recently on the Hagerty Marketplace auction site for $89,296. Advertised with just under 54,000 miles on the clock and having undergone a thorough restoration, the Buccaneer Red model was one of just 943 Pontiac Firebirds equipped with the Super Duty 455 package for the 1974 model year. That build had also been offered in 1973. The Hagerty listing drew more than 21,000 views and 39 bids. According to Hagerty's valuation report, a similar car would be worth $85,700 in good condition, and $103,000 if it was in ‘“concours condition.” The Super Duty motor borrowed technology from the lineÂ’s 366-cubic-inch NASCAR engine, and featured heavy-duty connecting rods and an entirely new block with a revised crankshaft and heads to deliver a claimed 310 horsepower. The Firebird that sold was indeed loaded, with a three-speed Hydra-matic transmission (which surely reduced its overall value), power locks and windows, AC, dual exhausts, heavy duty stabilizer bars all around, and a “custom Interior trimmed in Red perforated Morrokide vinyl upholstery.” The entry of PontiacÂ’s pony car in the U.S., facing off against the Mustang and Camaro, dates back to 1967, when it was offered with an inline six and optional V8. The first Trans Ams were introduced two years later, the name derived from a handling package. General Motors ceased production of new Pontiacs in 2002 owing to declining sales and losing stakes in the sports coupe market. The big 455-cid V-8 had disappeared years earlier.
