Here for sale is a 1960 Pontiac Catalina Convertible  . The interior is 100% original it as had 1 replaced top and 1 one repaint in the 70's. The top had a tear in the front of it and during transport ripped the center of the top off. The top rails are in excellent condition with original felt liner intact. This car is very straight and has very minimal rust on the body the areas are in the front and rear of the wheel wells of the quarter panels very minimal. The surface spots on the paint are just that surface rust as you can see in the photos. There is a hole in the center of the drivers side front floor pan that I have a new replacement panel for.The drivers side rear floor pan was replaced ( they did a nice job on it but its not original style sheet metal). The trunk was fiberglass years ago, It's solid but it should be replaced for a correct restoration. There are a few small areas on the inner rocker panel/floor extension that can be cut out and replaced and the flat bottom of the rocker panels have some bubbling that can be replaced. The exterior outer rocker panels are in nice shape with the exception of a small spot on the passenger side quarter rocker seam. Would be an easy repair what I'm trying to say is this car is not a total rust bucket but in nice solid restorable car. It has a set of fender skirts in the trunk that are in very nice condition along with the original jack and spare tire. I brought the car home to my shop and changed the oil , lubed the cylinders , cleaned the points, disconnected the fuel line to a small gas can in the front grill pan and started the car up and it run unbelievably well. I preceded to do a complete brake job on the car to make it mobile . I replaced the wheel cylinders. The drums and brakes shoes were as new so I did not replace them, I Greased and packed all the bearings . I had all new brake hoses made ane purchased a brand new master cylinder and when I went to change the master cylinder it was frozen to the booster. So the car is not operable for transport loading it will need a new master cylinder and brake booster , However, I can try to install the master cylinder without the brake booster to see if I can get a brake pedal for loading but I can not guarantee that but I will do my best but with a new brake booster and flushed fuel tank the car would be moble. I have described this vehicle to the best of my ability . If you have less than 10 Ebay transactions please contact me before bidding or your bid will be retracted. I have the right to end this auction anytime as this vehicle is listed locally. I have described this vehicle to best of my ability ,but should you have any further questions or request any further photos please contact me by phone at (813) 393-8705 as my time on the computer is limited. A $500.00 deposit is due within 48 hours after auctions end and the balance is due 7 days after auctions end. Thank You and Good Luck Bidding Jimmy (813) 393-8705.

How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car

Fri, 17 Oct 2014

Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.

This Auto Aerobics car art ties our brains in knots like pretzels

Sat, 14 Dec 2013

We like cars, and we like art. Naturally, Chris Labrooy's Auto Aerobics series - computer-generated images of some seriously contorted 1968 Pontiac Bonnevilles floating in mid-air - instantly clicked with us. If the Pontiacs weren't floating or hollow, we could be fooled into believing the image is real. But where's the fun in that?
Check out the gallery we included of Labrooy's Bonneville art, and feel free too head over to his website for some Formula One humor.

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.
