If you have any questions feel free to email me at: silvana_alphin@zoho.com . This beautiful 1969 GTO is a rare find. It's well maintained in and out, has recently been tuned and serviced so it
needs nothing. The red exterior and beige interior are a very nice combination, and are in great shape. This is a
True GTO, the VIN is 242379B135237.
The original 400 V8 puts out over 400 horsepower. It was rebuilt, bored .30 over and got an upgraded cam shaft.
Again, this is the original, numbers matching engine. The points on the distributor were replaced with an
electronic ignition system. An MSD box was professionally installed, complete with a rev-limiter to preserve the
engine. The 4 barrel Edelbrock carburetor is new, along with the entire fuel system. I had the fuel lines, the fuel
pump and fuel sending unit, as well as the fuel filters replaced, and the fuel tank got a rebuild and locking gas
cap. I also added a new battery, new starter and sparkplugs/wires.
The Automatic transmission is original, and is a 3 speed His/Hers with a Hurst package, and was just recently
serviced. It shifts up and down very smoothly even under full throttle. It has a very solid, factory feel, and I
will attribute that to the fact that the car has less than 40K original miles on it.
The interior is Beige and the leather is in good shape. Disclosure: The carpet is original and it used to be red.
This is the only thing on the car that could use replacing, but it's still decent and clean. The gauges and
instruments all work properly. This appears to be a non-smoker car, as the cigarette lighter and ashtrays have no
wear on them. I have all of the PHS documents for this car, and It appears that the first owner ordered the car
with a special package that consisted of 17 options, some of which were new to this model year. I will list all the
factory options eventually, but it has:
Safe-T track, Wonder-touch Steering, Cruise Control, Defroster Front/Rear, Power door locks, Power driver's seat,
Power antenna, and Air Conditioning, just to name a few. The 15 inch American Racing Wheels are chrome, and the
tires are new on the rear and fairly new on the front. Replaced and upgraded the brake lines and pads recently, so
this car drives and handles exceptionally well.
I am by no means saying that this car is show-room condition, but it's good at the very least. I would be happy to
answer any questions you may have.

Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.

1969 Pontiac GTO Judge vs. 2006 GTO, which Goat gets your vote?

Mon, 08 Sep 2014

The Pontiac GTO was perhaps the most iconic muscle car of the '60s and early '70s. With its beefy V8 and color palette screaming for attention, it summarized in a single vehicle everything that made the era so appealing to many young people. Pontiac tried to collect just a few drops of that aura again in the 2000s with a revived GTO, but with decidedly mixed results. The performance was still there with its big V8, but the looks never quite lived up to the powertrain. Now, Generation Gap wants to know which of these Goats is the one to own.
Things are skewed immediately because the 2006 GTO here is a real ringer. It comes from famous tuner Ken Lingenfelter's collection, and it's a one-off example partially fettled by GM Performance boasting a twin-turbocharged LS2 V8 with a claimed 750 horsepower and a wide-body kit. This Goat definitely isn't what you're going to find just browsing for one to buy in the newspaper. Still, dip the throttle just a little, and this GTO pulls like a freight train. It's enough to turn the two hosts into giggling schoolboys behind the wheel.
The '69 GTO Judge here is also out of Lingenfelter's collection, but this one is all stock with a 400-cubic-inch (6.6-liter) V8 and a Ram Air hood for a claimed 366 hp. It might not have the unbelievable power of the turbo '06, but it makes up for it with style to spare.

Junkyard Gem: 2010 Pontiac Vibe

Wed, Apr 17 2024

Just over a month before filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in June 2009, General Motors announced that the 83-year-old Pontiac Division would be "phased out" by the end of 2010. Only three Pontiac vehicles were sold as 2010 models in the United States: the Solstice, Vibe and G6 (new G3s were sold here during 2010 but they were all 2009 models, while the G5 was available as a 2010 model only in Canada and Mexico). Today's bit of junkyard automotive history is one of the very last Vibes ever built, found in a yard near Denver, Colorado. This car is significant not just as one of the final vehicles to bear Pontiac badges but also as one of the last cars built by the New United Motor Manufacturing Incorporated GM-Toyota joint venture in California, better known as NUMMI. The NUMMI factory began life as GM's Fremont Assembly, which built its first vehicle (a C-Series pickup) in 1963 and closed in 1982 after building its final vehicle (an Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera). Rebooted as NUMMI, the first 1985 Chevrolet Nova (an Americanized AE82 Toyota Corolla Sprinter) rolled off the line in December of 1984. A quarter-century and better than eight million vehicles hence, NUMMI shut down production after its last Corolla was finished on April 1, 2010. While there was some noise about the Oakland Athletics building a new stadium on the site at the time, Tesla ended up buying most of the site soon after that. Tesla now builds more vehicles per year there than NUMMI ever did. The Vibe was co-developed with Toyota and based on the same platform as the ninth-generation Corolla. The Toyota Matrix was mechanically identical and was built in Canada, while the Japanese-market version (known as the Toyota Voltz) was built on the same NUMMI line as the Vibe and shipped across the Pacific. The Vibe/Matrix/Voltz got a redesign for the 2009 model year, but few noticed due to all the turmoil in the GM world at the time. The final Vibe was built in August 2009. This car was built in July of 2009, just before the end. It was living in West Texas just prior to coming to Colorado. El Paso is about a ten-hour drive from this car's current location. Once in the Centennial State, it got parked somewhere it shouldn't have been and ended up being auctioned to Pick Your Part. An occupant of this Vibe had time to sample some of the local agricultural products before that happened.
