Condition: Used: A vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections. ...

Triple black: It's the color combination for a muscle car. Exotic colors are nice, but ask a car guy what turns him on and that's his reply, every time. Formal, cool and mean all the same time black/black/black cars are a breed of their own. Add in the very rare 455 cubic inch engine and ALL of the right visual options and you've got one of the best GTO's of all time.

Here’s how the PHS-sourced window sticker lays out the car:

24267 Pontiac GTO convertible

344 455 4bbl HO engine

351 Turbo Hydra-matic (TH400) automatic transmission

361 Safe-T-Track rear differential

402 AM/FM radio

422 Vinyl side stripes

464 Formula steering wheel

474 Rally II wheels

501 Power steering

502 power brakes

504 Tilt steering wheel

561 Power seat, full bench

582 Air conditioning

621 Ride and handling package

A2 Starlight Black paint w/black convertible top

62 Black bench seat interior

Look over the deep black exterior. The body is in excellent shape, free of dings, dents or ripples. The paint is smooth and flat. Rally II wheels with correct Firestone Wide Ovals are at each corner. The Endura front bumper, so frequently cracked and warped, is nearly perfect here. Stainless trim pieces are in great shape. The black convertible top is brand new and operates exactly as it should. The grilles are close to perfect and chrome parts from the door handles to the rear bumper sparkle.

Pop the hood and take in the sights. Front and center is a warranty replacement, properly dated and coded YA 455 engine, resplendently detailed from top to bottom. Only 241 455/auto GTO convertibles were built in '70 out of nearly 3,800 total...do the math! The block is the proper 9799140 piece, with #64 heads and a date coded manifold and carb. You can tell the car's only gone a couple miles since new by the lack of discoloration on the cylinder heads by the exhaust risers: I drove it far enough to sort it out and no more. The inner fenderwells, core support, firewall and other satin black parts are perfect. The A/C system is new or remanufactured throughout, including all new hoses, a new accumulator, the compressor, all seals and more. I charged it up with R134a and it blows cold. A new power brake booster and master cylinder stop the car as new. There’s a new wiring harness in place, a reproduction cap on the new radiator and new hoses with tower hose clamps. New belts, date coded wires, fresh plugs, new filters and more mean the maintenance items have been replaced, and replaced properly.

There are rebuilt seats with new covers, new carpeting, a new dash pad, a clean center console and mint door panels. The one change, from a power bench seat to buckets with a power driver's side, should offend no one but the top 1% of purists. They look better, are sportier and allow for more interior adjustment. The dash panels, both chrome and woodgrain, are brand new. All of the interior chrome is new. Clean gauges work as they should. Again, everything is fresh and everything works as it should.

Underneath the key word is “spotless.” From the floorpans to the exhaust to the steering and suspension this chassis is well sorted, tidy and new. Steering and brake components are new and adjusted precisely. The automatic transmission is in excellent shape after its fresh rebuild, as is the 3.55-geared rear with new axles, bearings, seals and a brand new Eaton Posi. In keeping with its cruiser attitude the exhaust rumbles as new with its reproduction mufflers. The trunk is in the same condition: A new trunk mat, spare cover, the correct jack and spare make their homes inside while leaving plenty of room for car show supplies!

Please send any questions you have before you hit the buy it now and I'll try to get back with you quickly. I don't want to hear any excuses after (I leave negative on you if so). If you hit buy it now I'll be out of town till the Aug 30th so if you buy it before you will have to wait till Sept 15th to pick it up.

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am

Mon, 13 May 2013

No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.

Rumormill: DeLorean Motor Company considering rescuing Pontiac Solstice?

Wed, 07 Oct 2009

DeLorean Motor Company Pontiac Solstice renderings - Click above for high-res image gallery
General Motors has made a science out of sharing platforms. So when the company's Kappa platform was introduced for a new rear-drive roadster to be distributed across three different motor divisions, you'd have figured the program was pretty safe, right? Unfortunately for the workers at the Wilmington Assembly Plant which manufactured the Kappa roadsters, those three divisions were Pontiac, Saturn and Opel - three units which the General has either sold or shut down. Which is a shame, because a perfectly good rear-drive roadster platform is a heck of a thing to waste.
In one of the strangest rumors we've heard recently, however, our compatriots over at Jalopnik report that the DeLorean Motor Company (yes, that DeLorean Motor Company) is considering buying the plant and the platform from GM and putting it back into production as a new DMC.

Aficionauto sits down with The Hoff and KITT

Fri, 10 Oct 2014

The latest video from The Aficionauto is the perfect palate cleanser for Knight Rider fans after finding out that Justin Bieber is the voice of KITT in an upcoming film. Host Christopher Rutkowski says that the Knight Industries Two Thousand is one of the most requested vehicles to appear on the series and for good reason - Michael Knight's Pontiac Trans-Am is among the most famous cars to ever appear on television.
While the video isn't able to showcase one of the original KITTs from the series, it does get star David Hasselhoff to drive his personal replica and talk about the lasting legacy of the show. The highlight here might be seeing The Hoff back behind the wheel in the open desert basically recreating Knight Rider's opening sequence.
With all of its flashing lights and gizmos, you can probably make the argument that KITT is pretty cheesy, and the show itself was never exactly a pillar of high-quality drama on television. Despite that, the series still provides a ton of good-natured fun, and The Hoff's continued enthusiasm for it is pretty infectious. Check out The Aficionauto video to take another ride with Knight Rider.
