DRIVELINE: This Pontiac retains it's original driveline with 95983 miles on it. The original 4-barrel intake was replaced with a 2-barrel somewhere along the line. However a four barrel intake, carburetor, and air cleaner go with the car. The transmission is a 3-Speed manual with code A # 3748868 with a date code of L-12-12. Cylinder heads have a date code of L-17-2 Engine block is stamped 02B. Differential is a 3:23 posi-traction unit with Safe-T-Track differential tag still on it. Car runs drives and stops great. Some oil residue on the transmission crossmember indicates there are probably a few oil drips here and there but again, this is a 95000 mile original drivetrain in a 51 year old car. Engine has just been serviced with a fresh oil and filter change, new spark plugs, new air filter, new points and condensor, carburetor tuning and dwell set. The chassis has just been lubed. The motor runs absolutely fantastic. UNDERSIDE: Underside inspection reveals car was saved from major rust issues due to undercoating when new. Further inspection reveals a fresh rebuilt front suspension with new A-frame bushings, ball joints, shocks and springs. BODY: Body is painted with the original Code L Marimba Red and is near perfect with only a few minor touch-ups. Bumpers appear to have been replated. Glass is all perfect. Windshield is tinted. This car was obviously garage kept. INTERIOR: Interior is beautiful with replacement seat covers and carpet. Padded dash is excellent. Oil pressure and temperature gauges have been added to original dash. Wipers, heater, and radio are all working. Headlights, tail lights, stop lights, turn signals and interior lights are all working. Back up lights do not work. Car is equipped with factory optional original seat belts. NOTE: In my photo assortment you will see that I put a set of original 1960's Mickey Thompson 5-spoke mag wheels on the front and a set of Radir 775-15 Cheater Slicks on the rear to show how the car would look in Drag Racing Trim for potential buyers who may have a Super Duty Clone in mind. This wheel and tire package will ONLY be included with the car at the buy it now price. If the car is sold for anything less than buy it now price then the additional tire and wheel package will be available for a separate additional purchase price.

NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys
Mon, 10 Jun 2013According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.
GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile
Sun, 29 Apr 2012Say 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.
