 You are bidding on a 1972 Pontiac Lemans Convertible! The vehicle has been in a cosmetic restoration process for about 2 years on and off. It is about 80%-85%. Over 100 hours have been put into the current restoration of this vehicle. The body is clean and in pretty good shape, as you can see from the photos, and must be seen to appreciate. The motor is a 1970 Pontiac 400 GTO Motor.  I had it completely re-machined by JGM Motors in Valencia. Bored .030 Over, Ground Crank, New Pistons, Rings, Lifters, Rods, and Cam, etc... EVERYTHING! I have only put about 20 miles on the motor. still breaking it in and seating the rings, I have been keeping the RPM's low during break in and would continue this for the first 500+ miles.  But it will get up and go! The original motor was rated at 375 Hp. There are too many things to list that have been done, but I will list the major items below. The only thing left to do is paint it the color you want, and possibly replace the top at some point.

New Front End Suspension-Complete, Including New Hotchkis Sway Bar and Springs.
New Rear Shocks
New Front Disc Brake Conversion
New Convertible Top Cylinders
New Kenwood Stereo, 12" JL Audio Bass & 250 Watt Amp, Infinity Rear Speakers 
Rebuilt Original Clock
New 2 1/2" Custom Exhaust System
Original Bumper Jack & Matching Spare
Original Seat Belts
1970 Pontiac 400 GTO Motor, Remachined, Rebuilt, Installed.

There are many other things that have been replaced, repaired, rebuilt, detailed, etc... and there is certainly things left to do depending on what you want to do with the car, i.e. Drive or Show. I have over $18K invested in this car, but I have another project car that I also want to start on, and my wife says I can only have one!! (Can you believe that!, plus my garage only holds one!) The car is priced to sell, my loss is you gain. If you would like any other photos or would like to come and see the car in person, (I would recommend personally inspecting car to appreciate!) please email me. I can show the car after 6pm during the week or on the weekend.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.

CNN chronicles young girl building Pontiac Fiero

Fri, 26 Oct 2012

At fourteen years of age, Kathryn DiMaria has already done what many self-proclaimed gearheads won't even attempt in their lifetimes. The Dearborn, Michigan teen is rebuilding a car from the ground up.
The intrepid youngster asked her parents when she was just twelve to start a Pontiac Fiero project, even offering to pony up all the funds herself. Father, Jerry DiMaria only expected the project to last a few months, but two years later, Kathryn is still at it. In this CNN video, the two are at Maker Faire (a DIY festival) rebuilding a 3.4-liter V6 engine out of a Chevrolet Camaro to replace the 2.8-liter mill found in the Fiero.
The whole family hast pitched in, with Kathryn's mother teaching her how to sew in order to complete the interior, father Jerry providing much of the technical know-how, and even her sister is chronicling Kathryn's progress through photos. Jerry even started a thread in a Fiero forum which has been live for two years and is now 22 pages long. Of the project, one forum member wrote, "welcome to the madness."

Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later

Fri, 12 Sep 2014



Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
