1969 Pontiac Firebird 350 Cameo White Complete Project Solid Blue Interior A/c on 2040-cars
Garysburg, North Carolina, United States
|
Up for auction is a 1969 Pontiac Firebird base model. Don't let the outside fool you, the floors and structure of this car are solid.
FOR MORE PICTURES: Pictures The car is not running, has been sitting since the late 80s. It will be years before I'd get a chance to build this so I'm going to offer it up for sale. It's a 50 50 Paint code so it would be great for a Trans Am clone. Also has blue vinyl bucket seat interior and factory A/C with the big block A/C box under the hood. The best part about this car is that it is basicly untouched and original with SOLID FLOOR AND TRUNK PANS. I believe the engine and automatic transmission are the original. Everything looks factory. The A/C compressor was taken off and is just laying in the engine bay. The condensor and box are still in place.I have not tried to start the engine. The car definitely needs front fenders, rockers and quarter panels. I still have not figured out how the lower side of the exterior rusted to the extent that it has without the floors and trunk being rotted out. There is no bondo in the car. Someone at some point sprayed the car blue over top of the original white (same white as the 69 Trans Ams). The glass is all good, needs a cleaning. I've left the car pretty much how I found it, no cleaning or glamming it up. The blue interior appears to be original. Driver's seat is in rough shape. Back seat should clean up really good, I haven't found any tears. The passenger seat has one seam busted on the shoulder towards the door. The carpet needs replaced, it's dry rotted. Need headliner. Door panels aren't terrible, I would reuse them for a driver style build. Needs the armrests replaced. Original steering wheel is a little sticky like most of them are. Car has a 10-bolt rearend with the mutli-leaf springs. I've tried to take a lot of good pictures of the car to show what's rusted and what isn't. I will be added a link a little later to more pictures. I believe I have around 48 total. If you are somewhat local and would like to come take a look at the car you are more than welcomed to. Buyer responsible for pick up of the car. No shipping on my part. I prefer CASH. I will work with a certified check but the car will not leave here until the money has cleared the bank. |

Aficionauto sits down with The Hoff and KITT
Fri, 10 Oct 2014The latest video from The Aficionauto is the perfect palate cleanser for Knight Rider fans after finding out that Justin Bieber is the voice of KITT in an upcoming film. Host Christopher Rutkowski says that the Knight Industries Two Thousand is one of the most requested vehicles to appear on the series and for good reason - Michael Knight's Pontiac Trans-Am is among the most famous cars to ever appear on television.
While the video isn't able to showcase one of the original KITTs from the series, it does get star David Hasselhoff to drive his personal replica and talk about the lasting legacy of the show. The highlight here might be seeing The Hoff back behind the wheel in the open desert basically recreating Knight Rider's opening sequence.
With all of its flashing lights and gizmos, you can probably make the argument that KITT is pretty cheesy, and the show itself was never exactly a pillar of high-quality drama on television. Despite that, the series still provides a ton of good-natured fun, and The Hoff's continued enthusiasm for it is pretty infectious. Check out The Aficionauto video to take another ride with Knight Rider.
Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM
Fri, 16 Oct 2009Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
