For sale is my 1969 Pontiac Firebird restoration project. Car has been in my family for 15 years and has been garage kept the entire time. It is from 1969 so it has the usual wear for a car that age. Small dents and dings and the drivers side rear quarter is rusted and the rear lighting wire harness needs to be replaced. It is encouraged that if you are interested in the car to come see it before you bid. The trunk, floors and frame are solid with no rust and the car runs and drives. When we bought the car it ran and drove. It sat for years after that and would no longer start when we attempted again. We took the car to a few people trying to get it started but no luck. We ended up having the motor replaced with a 350 from a 71' Bonneville and have reciept for the work and much more. I have the original motor and it will go with car.
The car has a ton of extra parts that are going to go with the car. I will do my best to list them but anything I miss you will have to see in the pictures. Two sets of side mirrors, an extra rear view mirror, two extra head rests(no rips) an extra glove box door, many extra window handle cranks, also two extra door handles. Extra ashtrays, tranny cooler, two sets of windshield wipers, two extra rear quarter firebird emblems, extra dipsticks. 2bl and 4bl carburator and 4bl manifold, the original a/c unit, gasket set, starter, extra set of door hinges, two windsheild wiper bottles extra gas pedal, extra hood latch, a pulley, antenna, extra drive shaft, many misc. chrome moulding pieces and clips for mounting. Also many misc. bolts, nuts and chrome lugs. Also not pictured is a rear window that will go with that I forgot to get a picture of.
I have recently purchased a rear deck filler plate brand new ($80) The carpet in the car is not in bad shape but shows signs of wear so I also bought a new carper for the car($170) that is also not installed. Overall the interior of the car is in great shape. only a few small tears. One is on the drivers head rest but I have the 2 extra head rest's with no rips. Also is a small 1/2" tear on the passangers seat. The rest of the interior a bit dusty but it is in great condition. Most 69' projects you see the interior is destroyed.
I have a number of reciepts from various work that I had gotten done to the car. I will list all of the parts that have been replaced and the dates.

This will be a great project for someone and I am sad to see the car go but I have a second child on the way and a demanding job so I will not have time for it.

Thank you for viewing my listing and dont hesitate to ask if you have any questions or would like to view the car.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern
Mon, 07 Nov 2011General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.
Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Here comes the Judge. Court is in session. The verdict is in. How many more tired clichés can we come up with? It hardly seems to matter, because it's happening: Trans Am Depot has announced via the teaser video below that it is launching a 2014 GTO, complete with Carousel Red (bright orange, really) paint and full Judge badging.
The car is based on Trans Am Depot's 6T9 Goat, which, in case you don't get the reverential references, is meant to mimic the look of the 1969 Pontiac GTO. As with the company's other cars -including the 2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am we recently drove - the GTO will be based on the current Chevy Camaro, which means two doors, V8 engines and rear-wheel drive, just like the muscle cars of days past.
As for actual details of what's under the 2014 GTO's hood, we're completely left hanging. We'd expect some sort of power adder (turbo, supercharger or possibly some other form of a highly massaged version of the Camaro's V8), and we certainly know that GM has any number of hi-po crate engines to choose from.
