1964 Pontiac Le Mans Convertible With Gto Badging on 2040-cars

1964 Pontiac Le Mans with GTO badging This is a great example of the beginning of the Muscle Car generation! A great car you can get in, turn the key and drive off in. Mechanically, there is nothing wrong with this vehicle - it starts and runs just as its supposed to, and sounds just like a true muscle car is supposed to sound! In the ten years we've owned this car, we haven't done anything to the cosmetics to refurbish or restore the car beyond its current condition. However, as you can see from the photographs, the car looks beautiful and the interior is almost 95% original with the original vinyl seats. The only thing I know is not original are the two kick panels with speakers. The radio in the dash is original, however the guts were removed and replaced with a solid state chassis and mated to an XM tuner in the glove compartment. The car is 51 years old and probably drives just as it did when new (which is not what you'ld expect if you've never driven a car from the sixties era). We have done regular maintenance on this car and when necessary, we've replaced mechanical components that needed repair or replacement including rebuilding the automatic transmission approximately five years ago and replacing most of the suspension components about three years ago. The car has GTO badging on the body outside and inside the doors and dash as well as a tri-power carburetor set up on the original 326 V-8 engine. The mileage is showing 54,107 and I believe that may be accurate - before we owned this car it sat on blocks in someone's garage in St. Louis, MO. We brought it to dry El Paso, TX where its been driven perhaps twice a month and stored in a garage 100% of the time. The car is insured for "stated value" and the insurance company placed a $25,000 value on the car. We are willing to see it sell for substantially less, but we're not going to give it away. If you have a question about where our reserve might be, or wish to make an offer for an early sale, write us. The car is also listed locally and we reserve the right to cancel this listing early if the car is sold locally. If you are the successful buyer, you will need to paypal a $500.00 non refundable deposit within 24 hours and pay the balance within 3 business days via wire transfer or cashier check. If the final payment is by cashier check, we will hold up delivery of the car until our bank has assured us the check (even cashier checks) has cleared. You are responsible for arranging shipping on this car, but we're happy to help in the process by making the car available for pick up whenever necessary. But, please don't arrange to pick up the car until we have assured you that all funds have cleared. The title is a clear Texas title and we will deliver the signed title and any documents necessary for you to transfer title in your state. For shipping purposes the car is located in the 79912 zip code. |

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll
Tue, 25 Feb 2014
588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.
