brand new aluminum drive shaft.
newly rebuilt turbo 350 with all the goodies,including B&M shift kit,and B&M 2500 Hole shot converter
Detroit speed 3" mini tub. i have 295/50/15 on the rear,and there is room for a 12" tire max.
Doug's ceramic coated headers,hooked up to a 3" mandrel bent,flowmaster exhaust,with 40 series flowmaster mufflers.
new dash pad,carpet,and new dyna mat and hush mat under carpet.
brand new carbon fiber Auto Meter gauges.
new engine only has 347 miles, which does not match the odometer,cause i had a different motor in it when i put gauges in.
new headliner and dome light, for some reason,dome light doesn't come on. It hasn't bothered me, so i haven't fixed it.
custom package tray with same carbon fiber vinyl that is in trunk area.
seats are from a LEXUS IS300 and i had the back seats upholstered to match, seats are both power seats.
custom front kick panels with speakers. The kick panels are wrapped in black leather.
brand new Deluxe door panels, with Deluxe rear panels as well.
new door handles inside and out, along with brand new seat belts.
brand new rebuilt front end along with new tubular A arms, and brand new 1" 1/4 sway bar, and new shocks.
new front lowering springs are from HOTCHKIS , which lowered it 2".
new motion sensor stereo head unit with small video screen.
i had this system tuned to play LOUD rock 'n' roll and it does just that!! CRISP and LOUD !!
electric trunk release with release button inside the glove box . Ignition box also in glove box.
new GRANT carbon fiber steering wheel. Horn not hooked up.
custom center console from a 67 impala SS that i customized myself which has hydro dipped carbon fiber inserts.
the engine is a multi-port fuel injection from F.A.S.T and its awesome!! You can tune the car with the handheld!
center console needs the carpet in the [glove box] area, just haven't done it .
new air conditioning from VINTAGE AIR and it blows COLD !
MARCH serpentine pulleys.
crank case evacuation pump.
polished water pump.
custom intake manifold. I had BUTLER PERFORMANCE send me the intake and i had it professionally hydro dipped! Looks AWESOME!!
needs a better looking top radiator hose, just didn't get to it. Its just a stock hose and looks cheap compared to everything else.
brand new CHAMPION aluminum 3 core radiator with 2- 10" electric fans .
NEED TO GET BIGGER AND BETTER RADIATOR !!!! This radiator works fine for a 400 hp engine but not so well for 600 plus .
The problem with this radiator is that it only has 1/2" cores . It needs 1" cores . I talked to Rodney and he said
he'd like to see the engine run under 200 degrees, this radiator makes it run around 210 to 215 which isn't hot by any means,
but with as much money that was spent on this, it needs to be the buyers FIRST PRIORITY!!! I was told by a nearby
radiator shop that the CHAMPION radiators are known for having 1/2 inch cores [I didn't know}, I figured a 3 core radiator would
be fine, but he said he has people all the time that come in with the same problem. Easy fix!! Just get a bad a** radiator to match this bad a** car!!
This engine was built with reliability first and foremost as I wanted an engine that could handle HOT ROD POWER TOURS.
I can email anyone the build sheet along with the three dyno pulls. The build sheet has every item and price of each and every thing done.
This engine is no joke!! It gets down to business FAST!! REV limiter can be adjusted from the handheld inside the car. Actually,
everything is adjusted from the handheld device even the idle!
The condenser for the air condition is currently off the car, I took it off earlier to see if the car would run a little cooler
but it didn't change anything.. I'll try to bolt it back if car sells, then the system will just need to be charged again, no big deal
its really easy to get to.
And one more thing, when I was cutting through the carpet to bolt the seats down, I accidentally cut through the RCA cable
going to the sub amp. I called the place that installed it and they said that the RCA cost about 35 bucks with about 40 bucks labor
if the car sells, and the place has time, I'll get it fixed or just take off 100 bucks if you want to take care of it yourself.
You'll just have to let me know.
I'm sure I'm missing some things,so if you have any questions please call me at 1-417-576-0275
no low ballers ! Please don't waste your time or mine ! The car is for sale well below the money i have put into it.
NO TRADES OF ANY KIND! I HAVE THE RIGHT TO END AUCTION EARLY AS THE CAR IS FOR SALE LOCALLY!!!
Thanks and happy bidding !! Please note that I have included three pictures that show minor paint damage one is on the upper drivers side door & the other two paint cracks are on the drivers quarter panel that any body shop could fix.... Also I am having new door hinges installed this week!!

Junkyard Gem: 1964 Pontiac Catalina Custom Ventura

Mon, May 22 2023

Like Impala, Skylark, Malibu and Silverado (among many others), the Ventura name began its career as the designation for a trim level or option package used on another GM model, then became a model name in its own right. Initially a designation for a snazzed-up Pontiac Catalina two- or four-door hardtop, the Ventura name moved over to a Pontiac-ized version of the Chevy Nova for 1971. Today's Junkyard Gem, found in a Northern California car graveyard, proudly bears both Catalina and Ventura badging. Actually, the Catalina name itself started out as a trim level for the Chieftain and Star Chief models of the 1950s, just to confuse everybody. By the time this car was built, the Catalina was the cheapest of four Pontiac models built on the same full-size B-Body platform as the big Chevrolets and Olds 88s of the time (the Star Chief, Bonneville and Grand Prix ranked above it on the 1964 Pontiac Prestige-O-Meter). The 1964 Catalina four-door hardtop with the Custom Ventura package offered a lot of swank per dollar, with a price starting at $3,063. That's about $29,821 when converted to inflated 2023 dollars. The main benefit of the Custom Ventura package was an interior done up entirely in Morrokide upholstery. Morrokide was the name GM applied to Naugahyde fake leather when used in Pontiac vehicles; when used in Buicks, it was known as Cordaveen, while Oldsmobile Naugahyde was called Morocceen. Naugahyde took its name from the town of Naugatuck, Connecticut, where it was invented. This car's Morrokide is in rough shape. In fact, everything about this car is decayed and probably infectious. You know to be careful when a junkyard car has warnings about rat feces inked on the glass. That said, I couldn't resist examining the 8-track tapes that littered the interior. Here's Hotel California, the 1976 hit album by the Eagles. Supertramp's Paris, a live album recorded from the 1979 Breakfast in America tour, is here as well. Here's The Best of Carly Simon, from 1975. The tapes were played on this Sparkomatic player, which probably lived in the glovebox or under the seat. The factory radio was AM-only, and includes the frequency markings for the atomic-attack CONELRAD emergency frequencies. 1964 was the last year for mandatory CONELRAD radios in the United States.

Junkyard Gem: 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP

Tue, Jun 19 2018

For General Motors, the W platform just kept giving and giving and giving for decade after decade, serving as the basis of Buick Regals, Oldsmobile Intrigues, Chevrolet Monte Carlos, and many, many more models. The final and most powerful Pontiac W-Body, the sixth-generation Grand Prix GTP, rolled off assembly lines for the 1997 through 2003 model years. Here's one in a Northern California self-service wrecking yard. GM bolted the supercharged 3800 V6 into vast numbers of cars during this era, providing a deep reservoir of cheap blowers for unwise high-boost projects. 240 front-tire-charring horses, complete with a Roots-type blower scream from the Eaton supercharger under the hood. I see plenty of blown 3800s during my junkyard travels, from the Bonneville SSEi to the Oldsmobile LSS. Depressingly, GM stopped putting manual transmissions in the Grand Prix during the 1993 model year, so '01 GTP owners had to take the four-speed slushbox. This one came close to the magic 200,000-mile mark, but fell 25,000 short. The interior took a beating during its life, ending its time on the road with shredded upholstery and dirty panels. Seven-band graphic equalizers were all the rage during the 1980s, but GM kept the tradition alive into our current century. This content is hosted by a third party.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Mon, 20 Jun 2011

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
