1988 Pontiac Firebird Formula 350 5.7l Lt1 Fast!! Professionally Painted on 2040-cars
Gilbert, Arizona, United States
|
This 1988 Pontiac Firebird has had a lot of TLC and money put into it to make it a great car. While it is not perfect it is ready to be driven and enjoyed.
The exterior of the car is in nearly perfect condition with a NEW two stage black paint job that was professionally done. NO dings, dents or rust anywhere on the car. The old rotten weather stripping has been replaced to keep the car tight form the outside elements. The glass is all in perfect condition with NEW tint on the side and rear window to keep the sun out and give the car an aggressive stealth look. The old rotten rubber rear spoiler was replaced before paint with a NEW factory correct rear fiberglass spoiler that will last for years. The tires are brand NEW 245/50r16 Cooper Zeon all weather tires mounted on the factory aluminum 16" WS6 wheels. Under the Hood is where this car really shines. The original and powerful 5.7L LT1 has been fitted with Edelbrock aluminum heads, Edelbrock intake, Edelbrock headers, Comp RV cam, K&N intake, high volume injectors, Custom 3" exhaust with flomasters and exhaust cutouts, Accel ignition, and has been SLP tuned. With these upgrades this car would be right at home on a friday night at the drag strip but still be a great daily driver! The chassis and suspension have also been upgraded. The front struts have been replaced with QA1 fully adjustable struts, all the bushings have been replaced with Energy suspension urathane bushings, and all the wear parts have been replaced. The interior of this car is in average to good condition. The front buckets and rear seat have been reupholstered with black and carbon fiber vinyl. The carpet, gauges, dash, door panels, and plastics are all in good shape. The headliner is a little ruff but not horrible, the center console lid is separating but again not horrible. The stereo has been removed. Overall this is a great car that can be driven and with a little more TLC it could be nearly perfect. Its not a project car or a piece of junk, every time I drive it I hesitate selling it because of how good it looks and how fun it is to drive. The worst problems with the car is that the fuel gauge is not working, every now and then there is a check engine light which gives me a mass air flow code, and the fact that its missing a stereo Willing to work with buyer on shipping but I do need a deposit of $500 and a contact phone number within 24 hrs of purchase. Thanks for looking |

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
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.
This Auto Aerobics car art ties our brains in knots like pretzels
Sat, 14 Dec 2013We like cars, and we like art. Naturally, Chris Labrooy's Auto Aerobics series - computer-generated images of some seriously contorted 1968 Pontiac Bonnevilles floating in mid-air - instantly clicked with us. If the Pontiacs weren't floating or hollow, we could be fooled into believing the image is real. But where's the fun in that?
Check out the gallery we included of Labrooy's Bonneville art, and feel free too head over to his website for some Formula One humor.
