1980 Firebird 73 Front End Shaker Hood on 2040-cars
Shepherdsville, Kentucky, United States
first off I took this car on trade and I'm going to be harsh with my description I'm going to try to point out every flaw I can find, so please look at the pictures closely ask questions I would much rather discourage you from buying than get it home and be disappointed my option of the car is its a great car, Has lots of curb appeal, Runs good, sounds mean, and what little I have drove it was a pleasure to drive, had no unusual squeaks or rattle this slick firebird started life as a 1980 turbo firebird, has power windows, power steering, power 4 wheel disc brakes positrac rear. It presently has a 400 Pontiac motor, aluminum intake, full length headers, dual exhaust (be aware that all of the emissions controls have been removed) the ac condenser lines have been cut, has a 350 turbo trans, interior.... the rear seats have new PUI covers, front seats are aftermarket (hug you pretty good) dash and door panels appear to be original and in super good shape. the car appears to have no rust, I have not inspected behind spoiler or ground effects the front end was replaced with a 71-73 has shaker hood.... because of the aluminum intake being taller this causes the hood to be raised slightly on the back near windshield the front spoiler is a mix match of the old and newer firebird if you look close you can tell it doesn't follow the bottom of the front bumper perfectly the paint appears to be a Candy blue color and in spots it wasn't applied perfectly so there are different shades the driver door looks like it has new hinges and the door still needs some adjusting. if you look close at the bottom edge of the door it looks like when you ever replaced the hinges that they had it on some sort of supporting devise and the bottom edge has a very slight bend you will need to get down on the floor to see.... the driver door glass doesn't roll up correctly I think some adjusting on it and it will be good as new has 15x8 aluminum wheels the rear tires are 272 60 15 drag radials and the front are 275 60 15 tires but will need to be replaced as they are old I have 2 sets of T-tops that go with the car one set is Chrome color and the other set is smoked I have only one set of T-top bags If you have any question please ask.... I have this car listed else where and reserve the right to sell until the reserve is met when the reserve is met It will no longer be for sale locally On Sep-17-14 at 20:53:04 PDT, seller added the following information: just some clarification referring to "old" tires.... the rear tires are like new...just the front tires are the ones that will need to be replaced in the near future referring to the oil leak..... I started the motor this morning let it run 30-40 minutes let it sit till this evening and it left an oily spot the diameter of the bottom of a soda can right under the flywheel dust cover could be as simple as a oil sending unit or as bad as a rear main seal I'm not sure this size oil leak could be considered unreasonable for a 69 model motor, but I would much rather you know now..... I have been places that I was asked to put a piece of card board under my truck "just incase" referring to a trade.... I do trade as this is how I ended up with this beauty Thanks for asking |

Sci-fi movie Jinn features car designer, Firebird-bodied Camaro
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you're an automotive engineer being tormented by an immortal being made of fire, then wouldn't you think it best to have a custom coupe called the FireBreather for your getaway car? That's the FireBreather in the image above, adorned by the red wings that once fronted the Pontiac Firebird, running away from a black cloud of evil in a trailer for the movie Jinn.
The Jinn is eternal evil, always waiting for the chance to make things float across rooms before going on homicidal urban rampages. The FireBreather is a Gen-V Chevrolet Camaro - from the V6 to the ZL1 - that's been through Classic Design Concepts' extensive list of exterior and interior modifications, including entirely new front and rear fascias and side skirts, sway bars and springs, Pirelli P Zeroes and an available Edelbrock supercharger.
The movie - FireBreathing chase scenes and all - was shot in Monroe, Michigan. You can watch the trailer below, but since the FireBreather only get a couple of seconds on screen, you can find out more about it on Street Legal TV and its official site.
eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile
Sun, 29 Apr 2012Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General 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.
