1973 pontiac firebird espirit. this car has a 1972 nose, transam fenders and a formula hood, car runs very well, starts right up, and shifts fine, will need a little brake work, the car currently will stop but the brake pedal is very soft, i was told it is going to need wheel cylinders. it is a pontiac 350 with automatic trans, the trans shifts fine, i drove the car up and down the road and it shifted through all the gears. the car is very solid in many of the places these cars normally have rust, the quarter panels seem to be extremely solid as do the rocker panels, the frame rails and sub frame mounts are also extremely solid. this is a great start to a restoration project or with a few hundred dollars could be a GREAT driver!!! the trunk floor does have rust, as does the lip around the trunk as you can see in the pictures but, the floor pans in this car are incredibly solid! it will need interior and electrical work, the dash harness was partially removed and needs to be plugged back in, there are a few guages missing as is the radio and a few small interior panels, i have alot of extra parts and interior panels to go with this car though. as you can see in the photos of the engine bay the heater core and box are missing, and the air cleaner is missing, the wiper motor and linkage are removed but i have two motors and all the linkage and wiper arms. the exhaust was recently replaced and the car sounds great, THIS IS A VERY STRONG RUNNING CAR!!!!

Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later
Fri, 12 Sep 2014
Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.
