1969 GTO Judge. Carousel Red, Rear Spoiler, Hideaway Headlights, Rally II rims with beauty rings (I put them on because I liked the look), non-operating but original hood tach, original ram air intake, original carpet, original seats, original headliner, original counsel, original dash, etc. The deal includes a set of Road Hugger G70-14 Belted tires that were put on the car in the early 70's. I took this set off when I put radials on it about 5 years ago. Other than being repainted the correct color sometime in the 80's this car is virtually the same way it came from the factory. There are flaws in the paint job. Looks great from five feet away but will need to be repainted if you are perfectionist. There is one small slit in the dash, 1 small L shaped tear in the headliner, the seats show a little wear on the drivers side, and there is a 8 inch long crease in the left front quarter panel that I put on the car during the Hurricane Season of 2004. This car was purchased new at Taber Pontiac in Atlanta, Georgia and comes with the original dealer delivery documentation paperwork. The car has always been a Georgia or Florida car and has never been on the market. I am the third owner and purchased the car 15 years ago. The previous two owners each kept the car about 15 years and sold it by word of mouth to acquaintances. This a survivor type car that runs and drives excellent.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As 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.
2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern
Mon, 07 Nov 2011General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.
1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction
Mon, 01 Aug 2011For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.
