PHS Documented included to buyer showing rare WS7 option!

The Trans AM has a Clear “California Title” in my name and Registration is current! 

Has Original Blue and Yellow color License Plate!!  

There is No Rust located on the floor boards, wheel wells or trunk floor areas!  Car is Rust Free!!!

This is a nice and rare factory equipped “WS7” performance handling package.  Only a certain number of Trans Am were produced with this suspension which is the same as the WS6 suspension except it does not have the rear disc brake brakes and was factory built with rear drum brakes.  It does have the front disc brakes and performance like the WS6 suspension! 

I do have the PHS (Pontiac Historical Society) Documents listing this rare WS7 Performance Suspension and will be included to the buyer. 

The Trans Am has the original 403 CID Engine.  The  VIN Number stamped on the engine  matches the VIN number on the dash!!!! (see photos of VIN numbers stamped on engine block).

 The engine runs nice and smooth with good power!!  The engine has not been altered and is very original!  I don’t know if it has the original miles stated on the odometer which reads 38,614.

The Trans AM has all its smog required emissions and will easily pass the California Smog Test!!! (passed the smog test on March 2014 with no issues! I can supply a copy of the smog certificate if needed!!).

The transmission is a Turbo Hydromatic 350 and possibly is the original transmission but I could not locate the VIN Number, so I will not say it’s matching numbers.  The transmission shifts smoothly and has no problems!  

The Car was built in Van Nuys, California and has no rust!

The front suspension has been rebuilt with new upper and lower control arm ball joints and bushings.  Front sway bar link bushings were also replaced. 

Has new Rear leaf springs rubber pads installed!!

New Front brake calipers and brakes!  Rear brakes have been also replaced and are in good condition.

New gas tank!!  Rubber fuel lines have also been replaced!

New Duralast Battery!

New weather stripping installed! (doors close a bit hard due to new weather stripping and door hinges will also need to be slightly adjusted/replaced).    

The car has a very nice and Shiny “Star Light” Black Paint job with nice SE (special edition) Decals!!!!!  The Trans AM was restored and painted approx. 3 years ago.  The body is straight and free from dents and rust.  There are no major dings on the Trans Am other than the normal road debris scratches.  

There is No Rust located on the floor boards, wheel wells or trunk floor areas!  Car is Rust Free!!!

Original 15X8 Inch wheels which have been polished!!  

All four wheels look like new!! All four Center Wheel Caps are in good condition!!  Front tires are Goodyear Radial  245-60-15 and the rear tires are BFGoodrich 275-60-15.  Car was stored for a while and tires might need to be replaced.

Original Steering Wheel with functional horn!!

Original front and rear seat frames.  Seats have been reupholstered and are in like new condition!

New black Headliner with no tears!

T-Tops are in very good condition with no cracks!

Clean door panels!!

Has New Black carpet!!

Nice clean Center Console and Shifter!!  

Original Dash Board in good condition but does have one crack going doing the top center of it (see picture).

This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
