    Description

    Thanks for looking! This car is located in Hooksett NH, a suburb of Manchester NH, about a hour north of Boston MA.
    This is my trusty old Pontiac GTO 2004, Triple Black. As you can see, it's been crashed. It was rolled over off an embankment after hydroplaning on the highway in NH.
    If you don't know, the GTO was imported from Australia via GM Holden. Holden made Australian GM cars since the late 50's. This model in Australia is called the Monaro. When imported to the US, GM changed the name to the GTO, and made it Left hand drive. Of course in typical GM fashion, not everything was transitioned to American style; for example, the coin slots in the glove box don't fit American coins - they're still molded for Australian money.
    In the US, the GTO had two options in 2004 - Color, and Transmission. This car is in triple black (black exterior, black interior, black trim), and has the 6-speed manual transmission.
    The only engine option was the LS1 V8, 346ci making 350hp and 360ft-lb torque. This is the exact same drivetrain that is in the same-year LS1 Corvette.
    The interior is all leather, black of course. The interior was mint. As in, no one ever even sat in the rear seats. The car was used as my daily driver for more than 10 years and you would never have known judging by how clean the interior was.
    I've had the car since 2008 and really took care of it. Any problems were fixed either by myself or my mechanic promptly. I did most of the maintenance on the car including routine Mobil 1 5w30 oil changes. Brakes were changed a few times in the 12 years I've owned the car. In very rare instances, a non-factory part was used instead of the correct factory part. This happened more as the car got older and parts became more difficult to find.
    For example, when the transmission slave cylinder gasket went bad, I had to search for about a month to find the correct GM part. Things like brake rotors and pads were replaced with similar branded units as there was no logical reason to replace those wearable parts with GM branded ones.
    If you haven't noticed, I really loved this car. I am sad that it crashed. The details of the crash are not important other than to say the car saved a life and for that I am forever grateful. The car lost control on the highway in the early morning, hydroplaning off the side of the road and rolled down an embankment. The car was still running after it came to a stop, which helped passer-bys see the vehicle and summon help.
    The damage is obvious but there may be some not-so-obvious damage as well. I went through the car after it was towed back to my house. I changed the oil and filled the radiator. I hooked up the battery and started the engine. It runs! However the radiator has a leak somewhere, likely lower drivers side, and I only ran the engine long enough to see that it starts and doesn't make any funny noises. THERE IS NO WAY TO DRIVE THIS CAR. You will have to tow (flat bed) it home. However the engine did start and I'm not surprised by this fact.
    I believe all of the broken-off parts are located either in the trunk or in the back seat or front floor. I found the mirrors and the lower valence grill. The front bumper is blown off (clips are broken) but the unit is there. The interior was 'cleaned' but would really need to be detailed in order to restore it. All of the seats and door panels appear to be undamaged. Dash board functions as best I can tell when I had the car briefly running s/p crash.
    Clearly this is a project car that might be useful for someone with nothing to do, or more specifically for someone who owns a modern GTO and wants a parts car.
    So what are you getting here: A broken GTO. With parts. 100% CLEAN TITLE. That's the best way I can describe it.
    What you are not getting: A drivable car as it stands.
    The car doesn't move and I wouldn't move it in the condition it's in anyways. The engine did turn over and start. If you decide this is something you want to invest your time and money into, be warned that there are no guaranties at all in any circumstance possible no matter what.  I will feel bad if you get this car home and the engine seizes up on you, but that's all I can do about it. I know the engine starts but you will be taking the chance something goes sideways with it. Please keep this in mind.
    Car is for parts only. I have a clean title in hand.
    You will have to trailer or tow this car away. I make no promises or suggestions as to how you will accomplish this. I will say that I cannot transport this car since I have no trailer. If you can get this home, it's yours!

    Added Info:  Actual Mileage:  146,633.
    Also, eBay won't let me edit, add or remove any pics or edit my listing.  I cannot upload the video of the engine starting, which I made today.  The engine starts and runs, but the power steering pulley is misaligned, so I didn't run the engine long.
    Finally, anyone who buys this car gets my 2 tome GM service manual, which I bought a decade ago, when people bought books for this sort of thing.  It's what GM sells their repair shops.  This is no Chiltons manual, its like two 1000 page books.
