Pontiac Passion Revived

Janic’s love of classic cars is well documented. Best known as a host on Overhaulin’ and Hot Rod TV, she’s built a reputation as an enthusiast who can connect engines to audiences. The hashtags in her post—#Pontiac and #GTO—point directly to the iconic Pontiac GTO muscle car, while #BurtReynolds nods to the late actor’s famed 1968 GTO Build-A-Car special.

Charity Drive In Tampa

While Janic hasn’t disclosed the exact charity, she emphasized the project is “all for a GREAT cause.” The Florida location suggests a regional fundraiser or auction. Pontiac Girls, a community of female automotive fans, could be part of the effort, given Janic’s history as an advocate for women in motoring.

Automotive Host On The Rise

Janic’s automotive credentials are deep. In October 2024, she marked her 11th year hosting Battle of the Builders at the SEMA Show. That post read, “SEMA 2024 marked my 11th year hosting Battle of the Builders…and that’s not including my previous years at SEMA with Overhaulin’ 😎.” (https://www.instagram.com/p/DCXHKXKSWQX/)
Her experience at events like SEMA and her feature in L.A. Living Magazine underline her dual role as a TV personality and car culture ambassador.

Fans are already speculating about the specifics of Janic’s Tampa GTO project—will it be a full restoration, a one-off tribute build, or something completely unexpected? Adrienne Janic has promised more details soon, and gearheads everywhere will be watching her feed for that long-awaited reveal.
