This decodes as a 1964 Pontiac LeMans GTO that was built at Pontiac, MI during the

1st week of February 1964. The car was finished in Grenadier Red (V-2), with a Black

Vinyl Top.

The interior is finished in Black Vinyl (214). The car was built with a Muncie 4

Speed Transmission that was assembled February 4 1964. The engine block was cast

on July 10, 1964. It is a 1964 389 Engine that is not the original unit to the car. The

intake manifold is from a 1963 Tri Power Application. The heads are correct to the

vehicle. The Hurst Wheels that on the car are original examples.

Overall Condition

This is a restored 1964 Pontiac LeMans GTO. This is an older restoration that is now in

need of light freshening. The restoration when it was performed was very complete, and

was done to a high standard. The restoration was performed on a very good example

that has been finished in correct colors. The trim tag on the car is original and correct to

the vehicle. The body on the car is very good condition. The floors are excellent. The

body panels are excellent. The paint is very good. The paint will need some very good

detail work to bring it up a level. All of the bright work is correct and original. The

downfall to the car is that the restoration is older and it appears to have been poorly

stored. It’s not bad, however if you look at the hardware, shocks, clamps, bolts, etc.,

evidence of corrosion exists. The car can be easily freshened, and this example is

certainly worthy of the efforts. The engine compartment is very correct in appearance.

The engine block has been replaced at some point. The engine in the vehicle is a 389

from 1964 that was cast in July, 5 months after this cars assembly. The intake manifold

is a 1963 part number. The engine compartment needs some detail work, mainly

exhaust manifolds and cylinder heads to be refinished. The interior on the car is very

correct and is in very good condition. The components all appear to be original and

complete. The car was ran and moved in close quarters during the inspection.

Everything appeared to work as designed. The car was inspected on a lift and all

mechanical items were inspected. Everything appeared to be in good operating

condition. This is an example that was at least a very strong #2 condition car when

completed and now has just aged. This car can be taken back to let level with well

focused efforts targeted to details that have fallen in condition due to time and exposure.

The car has a great set of original Hurst wheels that have not been restored. They are

very good originals and add value to this car.

We will be listing many more vehicles in the coming days.

David Hasselhoff's own KITT replica up for auction

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

Depending on when and where you grew up, the name David Hasselhoff likely conjures up images of Knight Rider, Baywatch, pop singer, or possibly a washed-up TV actor, but one thing that can never be taken away from The Hoff is his connection to one of the greatest automotive icons in pop culture. The Knight Industries Two Thousand, usually shortened to simply KITT, was the real star of Knight Rider for many fans. Based on a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, the car combined snarky quips for comedy relief and stunts to provide much of the show's actions. Now, Julien's Auctions is selling Hasselhoff's own replica as part of a larger sale of the actor's personal memorabilia collection.
This recreation is based on a 1986 Firebird and comes with all of the tech on the inside that now seems hilariously outdated, like the yoke steering wheel and plethora of buttons. The interior also thoughtfully includes a voice box with over 4,000 sound clips from the show. With a 5.0-liter V8 and an automatic transmission, performance is likely adequate and period correct. According to the listing, this car was created by fans and given to the Hoff. Sadly, the replica doesn't convert to Super Pursuit Mode like KITT could in later seasons, and we most associate KITT with conventional front-hinged doors to go with the power t-tops and ejector seats.
Bidding currently sits $27,500 with eight bids, since starting at $15,000. Julien's predicts it will sell for between $30,000 and $50,000. If there is some nostalgia for KITT in your heart, there is still plenty of time to bid.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM

Fri, 16 Oct 2009

Ford 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.

Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

NASCAR driver Tony Stewart is making good use of his nickname Smoke in new videos inspired by the 1970s classic Smokey and the Bandit. The original is one of the quintessential automotive movies of its era with a fantastic combination of slapstick comedy and great car stunts in a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. If you've never seen it, check it out immediately.
In the new six-part Smoke IS the Bandit web series, Stewart takes on the role of Burt Reynolds' famous character complete with huge mustache. But instead of trying to smuggle cases of Coors beer it's Mobil 1 oil. The series promises to recreate many of the famous scenes from the movie and includes cameos from other NASCAR drivers.
To complete the look, future videos just need a quality replacement for a young Sally Field to ride shotgun. It would also be really cool if Reynolds could make a brief appearance at some point. Scroll down to check out the trailer and the first episode in the series.
