My 66 gto conv. has electric windows and seat and the conv top. The car has been sitting since 1979 in the garage. I was wondering if these motors will be any good yet or will they have to be re-built? If so, who does it?
Mazz You will never hear me say " I should have never sold that car"

They usually don't go bad unless they get wet. Sometimes the shaft will get stuck because the lubrication dries up in the bearings. If you put power on one and it doesn't turn, turn off power quickly. Try to turn the shaft manually. Squirt some oil on the shaft bearings if possible. Then try again. If that doesn't work, maybe an alternator rebuild shop will work on it for you.

be careful if trying the top ,that the lift cylinders are not rusted or pitted. they light tear the seals if this is the case, which will cause quite a mess.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
