This is an auction for a unique opportunity. What I have is a 1962 Pontiac Bonneville Convertible that is in the process of a full body off restoration that I estimate to be about 85% - 90% complete. Take a look at the pictures and feel free to call me if you would like to ask detailed questions. I have over $35,000 invested in body/paint/engine/trans/parts for the car. I do have a 1962 Bonneville convertible parts car without a title. You are welcome to that as well or any parts from it if I don't sell it before this project sells but you really do not need anything significant to finish the other car. My reason for selling is that I have sold my shop building and don't have any place to complete the car nor any real opportunity because of my job to finish. My loss will truly be someone else's gain.


I have all receipts for the car from the beginning and they will attest to the amount of my investment. All the receipts and history of the car will be given to the winner. The engine is a 1969 428 CID Pontiac four bolt main balanced and blueprinted by a top notch speed shop in Port St Lucie, FL It includes a Offenhauser dual quad intake and two Holley Carbs. The expected horsepower is 575HP. with a brand new T10 Four speed transmission. It has Dual Exhaust aluminized 2 1/2" in diameter. The frame was blasted and painted with Por 15 and every fastener and part was replaced if needed. New body mounts, gas tank all wheel and brake components etc. All body and paint work has been completed by a master local body shop and the car looks great. 

The interior is brand new to original specs. I have all the restored interior with the exception of the drivers side bucket seat which was consumed in a fire. (long story) so you will need to get a different seat and have it upholstered to match. I have the convertible top canvas/pad and all brand new hardware to install. I do not have a rear widow for the top. 
The side moldings on the car are NOS originals except the left front fender and the drivers door. Again please look at the pictures closely and please ask your questions in advance. I can't monitor my email all day but I will get back to you as quickly as I can. The car will have to be trailered so please keep that in mind. You are encouraged to come and see the car for yourself but you will need to set up an appointment to do so.
I have a clear title for the car. The extra parts car does not have a title so it must be used for parts only. I still have plenty of good body parts and the frame so if you wanted to part it out you could recover some of your costs. I'm sure I am leaving something out but not intentionally. Again please feel free to give me a call if you want to discuss any details. Contact me through ebay and I will send you my phone number.

I am not able to offer a warrantee for obvious reasons but you will not be disappointed once you see the car and all the extras that come with it. It could be finished up in a short period of time if you have the place and opportunity to get at it. 
I require a $500 deposit through Paypal within 24 hours of the auction end and the balance within 5 days of the auction end. Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs but I will assist you in any way I can. 
The reserve price already represents a considerable loss on my part so please respect that I can't give it away. Also please plan to pick ip up within 20 days unless we have agreed to other arrangements. I did sell my building so I need to have it gone soon. Thanks for looking and reading this entire description and good luck with the auction!  PLEASE ARRANGE YOUR FINANCING IN ADVANCE and PLEASE DO NOT WASTE MY TIME IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO COMPLETE THE SALE. 
THIS IS A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO CASH IN ON ALL MY EXPENSE AND WORK AND ONE THAT MAY NEVER COME ALONG AGAIN.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial

Sat, 16 Mar 2013


The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am

Mon, 13 May 2013

No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
