1964 Pontiac Bonneville Catalina Gp Proboscis Split Grille Nose Hood Latch Tower on 2040-parts.com
San Diego, California, US
DESCRIPTION: THIS IS THE WHOLE INTEGRATED CENTER SUPPORT FOR THE FAMOUS WIND SPLIT GRILLE "PROBOSCIS" OF THE '64 FULL-SIZE PONTIAC. WHAT YOU SEE IN THE FIRST 11 PHOTOS IS WHAT YOU GET. IT IS STRAIGHT AS AN ARROW (OR, IN THE CASE OF PONTIAC, AN ARROWHEAD!). I REMOVED THIS FROM A 64 BONNEVILLE IN 1995, SO IT'S BEEN WRAPPED UP FOR ABOUT 18 YEARS. NO RUST ANYWHERE. EVEN THE ORIG. PAINT & PRIMER ARE STILL PROTECTING IT. YOU COULD BE LOOKING AT THIS AUCTION BECAUSE SOMEONE RAN A STOP LIGHT OR SIGN, AND GOT IN THE WAY OF YOUR PONCHO, OR YOUR KID JUMPED IN THE FRONT SEAT AND PUT THE DOWNHILL SLOPED CAR IN NEUTRAL (WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT MY KID BROTHER DID IN A BRAND NEW '64 GALAXIE, TAKING OUT A PLATE GLASS WINDOW IN A DRY GOODS STORE WHILE NARROWLY MISSING A GAS PUMP). BTW, IF YOU DON'T NEED THE WHOLE LONG SUPPORT METAL FRAME, LET ME KNOW SO THAT I CAN TAILOR THE AUCTION TO YOUR NEEDS (REVISE IT).
SHIPPING/PACKING: BECAUSE I'M IN THE CORNER OF THE COUNTRY, SHPG COSTS MAY BE A BIT MORE. SETS OF LARGE HUBCAPS (AND LARGER ITEMS) MAY BE DIMENSIONALLY WEIGHTED (i.e., charged more than actual weight) BY UPS IN ANY BOX 16”x18”x18” OR LARGER (> 5183 TOTAL INCHES). I DON’T CHARGE A SEPARATE HNDLNG FEE, SO WHEN YOU SEE THE EFFORT I WENT THROUGH TO PACK THIS ORDER, YOU'LL THINK IT'S A BARGAIN. I WILL COMBINE SHIPPING, IF ITEMS CAN BE SHIPPED TOGETHER SAFELY (by deducting approx. 50% of the lesser shpg cost for each additional item). NOTE THAT I CAN’T ADD THE EXTRA CHARGES IT COSTS ME FOR A BUYER’S RESIDENTIAL DELIVERY OR RURAL RSDNTL, INSURANCE, AND FUEL SURCHARGE, AND I PAY A COMMISSION OUT OF THE SHPG PRICE. SO I’M OFTEN UNDERSTATING THE ACTUAL OUT-OF-POCKET COST IN THE QUOTE. ALSO, IT IS MY PREROGATIVE TO USE A DIFFERENT SHIPPER THAN THAT LISTED IN THE AUCTION (e.g., U.S.P.S. instead of U.P.S.), IF I FEEL THE ITEM CAN BE TRANSPORTED MORE EFFECTIVELY BY OTHER MEANS (i.e., more cheaply, or in pre-fab cartons, *****6one9-442-2800. PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE IF I CAN'T GET TO THE PHONE! THANKS VERY MUCH FOR YOUR INTEREST & COOPERATION...
PHOTO #12: WILL BE POSTING AN AD FOR THE FRONT BUMPER VALENCE SOON (HAVE 1 LEFT - NOT INCLUDED IN THIS AUCTION, BUT COULD BE SHPD WITH THE PROBOSCIS, WHICH IS LONG ALSO). YOU MAY NEED THIS PART, TOO!
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: WELCOME! IF THE SHPG QUOTE SEEMS A LITTLE HIGH, PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE BIDDING. IT TAKES ME QUITE A BIT OF EXTRA TIME TO SEND A PKG OUT OF THE U.S.; A VERY NOMINAL HNDLG CHARGE’S BEEN ADDED. I WILL SEND PHOTOS OF PACKAGING DETAIL (IF REQUESTED).
LAYAWAY OPTION & PAYMENT TERMS: YOU MUST MAKE A PAYMENT FOR THIS ITEM (at least 50% down) WITHIN 48 HOURS. I WILL ALLOW UP TO 30 DAYS (90 days, if pre-arranged) FOR THE BALANCE DUE TO BE PAID. Thank you for your cooperation...
FEEDBACK: MY REWARD IS THE SATISFACTION OF HAPPY BUYERS, AND MY GOAL IS TO ACHIEVE 5 STAR RATINGS. IF THERE IS ANY DELAY IN SHPMT, PLEASE CONSIDER HOW WELL I PKGD THE ITEM(S). I’VE BEEN KNOWN TO DOUBLE-BOX, USE DOUBLE-WALL BOXES, & WRAP THINGS 3 DIFFERENT WAYS. IN 34 YRS OF SHPG, I’VE RARELY EVER HAD A DAMAGED SHPMT!
FYI: IN 2011, I DONATED ALMOST HALF OF MY YEAR’S EBAY SALES RECEIPTS TO THE JAPAN EARTHQUAKE & TSUNAMI RELIEF FUND…

Volkswagen unveils e-Golf at Frankfurt auto show
Tue, 10 Sep 2013Casual conversation in Frankfurt among journalists has often turned to the latest iterations of the Volkswagen Golf and their essential goodness. Since the cars have yet to be seen on American shores, our rightfully skeptical colleagues who haven't been to Europe to sample the Mk. 7 versions of the car have generally said, "Well, they can't be that good.
It WAS Chris Evans who bought the Ferrari 250 GTO
Thu, 13 May 2010Chris Evans has bought a Ferrari 250 GTO Well, there’s a turn up for the books. We were busy teasing Chris Evans in the piece we did earlier today on the Ferrari 250 GTO. We know it’s his dream car and he’s been quoted on numerous occassions – we’ve even heard him say it – that he’s no longer wealthy enough to buy the one car his heart truly desires – the Ferrari 250 GTO.
Audi SQ5 costs £43,870 in UK
Wed, 28 Nov 2012The diesel Audi ‘RS’ Q5 – the Audi SQ5 – with 309bhp and 0-62mph in 5.1 seconds, will cost £43,870 when it arrives in the UK in spring 2013. That means Audi’s 3.0 litre V6 BiTurbo TDI with a healthy 309bhp and 479lb/ft of torque, enough to deliver the SQ5 to 62mph in 5.1 seconds, on to a top speed of 155mph and deliver an official economy figure (although you’ll never get it) of over 40mpg. The power goes through an eight-speed tiptronic ‘box to all four wheels and you get a sound actuator in the exhaust to give you a non-diesely roar. Audi has also dropped the suspension on the SQ5 by 30mm compared to the regular Q5 S Line for a more sporty manner, and if you opt for Audi’s Drive Select Adaptive Dynamics you’ll also get Comfort, Auto, Dynamic and Efficiency modes (and an Individual mode too if you opt for HDD SatNav as well) which alter the steering, transmission, throttle and even the exhaust actuator to suit.
