PHS (Pontiac Historical Society) Documented
VIN: 824F32621
In the past this Muscle Car was represented as being a Royal Bobcat. I can find no documentation to support this
claim. It does have the lighter springs in the distributor but I have not torn the engine down to verify the
aluminum lock nuts on the rockers or the offset key in the cam.. I also do not know what jets are in the carbs. If
this was a true Royal Bobcat the intake gasket would have the water passages blocked which I cannot confirm. The
Royal Bobcat gaskets were in the trunk of the car along with the Royal Bobcat air cleaners.
With all that stated, It might be a Royal Bobcat or it might not. I am selling it as NOT a Royal Bobcat. If the
buyer can document the car as a Bobcat, he will have made a great buy.
This is an excellent example of a surviving Muscle Car. A 100% rust free, never hit or damaged car built in
Fremont, CA, and delivered to Bryant Pontiac in Covina, CA. The car was in California until it was purchased by a
military man stationed in L.A. in 1973. He took the car to his family home in Detroit Michigan. From 1973 to 1983
the car was a summer cruiser on WoodWard Avenue in Detroit and accumulated only a few thousand miles during the
summer months that decade. It was then put into storage until it was purchased by the previous owner in 2006. At
that time a complete restoration was performed. It is a 100% rust free and never hit or damaged survivor.
The care has its original #'s matching 389ci 348 hp 3x2 Tripower code 76XW block which appears to have been rebuilt
at some point.
The car retains it's original Muncie 4-speed and Hurst shifter. The rear end gears are 4.33 PosiTraction which
were installed in place of the original 3.23 factory gears possibly by Royal Pontiac. The original 3.23 gears go
with the sale.
The car was ordered with A/C however it was removed years ago possibly by Royal Pontiac and is now a non A/C
configuration. It has power steering, drum brakes, bucket seats with console, and am radio.
The car received a total restoration at some point with fresh paint, new chrome on the bumpers, and stainless steel
trim polished. New interior including dash, sills, dash pad, door handles, window cranks, front and rear seat
covers, carpet, headliner, and package tray.
The car received all new weather stripping and window seals. Redone and detailed trunk.
New vintage Sun Tach and mechanical gauges.
Everything under the hood has been replaced, restored, or rebuilt.
New 2 1/2" Pypes, mandrel bent exhaust, upper control arm bushings, new tires, brakes, and recored radiator.

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
Driving Notes
STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM
Fri, 16 Oct 2009Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
Saturn Vue ignition switch leads to new group of GM recalls totaling 312k

Dealers are checking the parts and replacing the ignition cylinder and key set, if necessary.
Next is 72,826 models worldwide (48,059 vehicles in the US) of the 2013 Cadillac ATS four-door sedan, 2013 Buick Encore and 2013 Chevy Trax in Canada.

Both front, outboard lap belt pretensioners are being replaced, and a stop-sale is in effect on unsold models until the problem is repaired. There are no known crashes or injuries, though.
