1969 Pontiac Grand Prix "LOADED J".... I guess they "ran out of SJ's" it was "cheaper to insure a J", or some other story that makes you feel good, but any color you want to paint it, it's got the good options, which are: 428 engine, Power: Seat, Steering, Brakes, Trunk, Door Locks. A/C, Rear speaker, gauges (oil temp battery)

428 is completely rebuilt that was running totally fine when pulled out...it smelled like burning oil off the hot engine and it bothered me...

Rebuilt transmission by same shop here in Boise.

Completely rebuilt front end, bushings ball joints, steering controls, springs, kyb shocks front and rear, brakes, brake lines, alignment etc.....

Rotors were not changed, should be original to the car.

Vinyl top was replaced by my Dad for my birthday about 11 years ago, (there is a blue note in the paperwork saying happy birthday David) but the car has been driven less than 1500 miles since and stored inside my shop since then.

Tires are really nice, not many miles on them. Car came with 14" wheels, but I put 15" wheels on it a few years ago.

I asked nearly every year about the car for 6 years 1994- 2000. The old couple finally agreed to sell it to me....go out and look at it and make us an offer.... When I opened the hood, I saw the chrome air cleaner and valve covers. It was "her car", not his. They said it was in a parking lot accident at Albertsons in the 70's and the daughter added remembering hearing "whoever owns the green Pontiac Grand Prix" over the intercom of the store.... it was hit behind the driver's door, you can see the paint spot fix job in the photos. They kept all the paperwork for the car in a file which I will include...and try to ad that photo that I just took.. and I CANT FIND THE PAPERWORK FOR THE WORK I HAD DONE... it may be at work with the title in the safe.. when I know more on this I will put it in the description....but can tell you it was about $8000.00 parts and labor here by a well known shop in town.. (the owner has properly restored several of his own GTO's, one or two are "Judges") Many dates and mileage on the paperwork showing its original...not 213k.

Examples- MILES- in 1973 -34,231, in 1975 - 48,500 in 1976- 62,400, in 1981 - 74,100 miles, in 1988 92,000 The car was licensed till 1995 or 1996, but not driven much. The car had about 106K miles on it when I got it about 13 years ago and it has 113K miles now. I took the motor out in about 2005 or 2006. This was my daily driver for less than a year, and a hit and miss driver for the other 5 years or so....typical for me, I change cars often.

It was kept under a large open garage next to the house by the previous owners. I have about 45 receipts/repair bills/parts lists/shop order forms etc from about 1973 to current. I call this car a survivor. It has some paint blemishes for sure (paint is thin, wore off, and bad in areas), but its got a majority of the paint the factory put on it, and I like it the way it is. It requires a lot less babysitting and worrying. The trunk has the original cardboard panels on the sides and has ZERO RUST- NONE. The inside of car has ZERO RUST, often times car sweat inside and all the metal under the dash and under all the vinyl etc is rusty and gross. THIS CAR IS NOT A RUST BUGGY. It's a dry Boise, Idaho car, it does have very minor rust on the body, very minor....

The interior is nice...front door panels have minor cracks, and small wear spot on the drivers seat. I would not enjoy the car any more if I painted it or fixed the minor things on the interior. Carpet is in super shape..not tired or worn out. There is still and inspection sticker on the inside of the windshield from 1974 if I remember right....

I backed the car in my garage about 7 years ago, and was annoyed with the smell of oil burning off the engine, it ran strong, had no knocks, no smoke etc. I should have just fixed the oil leaks ... but ... 6 years later, I got it back on the road. I did not install the engine and transmission. I did pull both... but had the shop that rebuilt both install them and never had either in my possession from time I dropped them off about 6 or 7 years, I brought the shop my car when they were ready ( yes, it was a long time, but that was the agreement..) "I will rebuild it, but no set time that it would be done" They installed them at that time....when they were done. The total for the labor and engine and transmission was around 8000.00 I paid 2500 down and about 5500 balance.....I had two yellow receipts that I thought were in the car, but cant find them, I will ask the shop if they have a copy....and give the shops info upon request of coarse.

I have driven the car less than 1000 miles since the installation, and its for sale now because it does not bring me the joy I imagined it would.

I know it's a very loaded J, and it came this way, it's not a Plain Jane car with added options. It NEEDS: a front seal on the transmission replaced. If is sits for about a week or 10 days it leaks out about 1/2 a quart, and has since the day I drove it home. The transmission shifts strong and works just as it should but needs the cable adjusted so when putting it in park, its actually in park, it will click on a slight hill. It had a new master cylinder on it when I got it back, but it slowly goes to the floor, so it needs a new one, its still very driveable, but not really safe. It has a gas leak when filling the tank up, but if it has less than (approx 10 gallons) it does not. Its been this way since I got it back.

The exhaust is older and will need whatever you fancy, put on someday. I would not enjoy the car any better if it had new exhaust. The battery is new, the underside of the car is in SUPER SHAPE. The engine and components should be as it came from the Factory. There are a couple plug/wires for accessories that are not plugged in, I do not know why or what, but it's extremely limited...perhaps only one after looking closely.

I do not have the 14" wheels, I think I sold them, don't recall. The carpet is very nice, no rot, rips or tears, and its original. Original floor mats in the front, no back ones. I am likely missing something, but this is the best description I can give.

If you are wondering why I never took it back to have the trans leak fixed, you would have to know me, but I refuse to return things, and did mention it to an employee a week after I got it back ( he was looking a parcel of land I had for sale), but just never took it in. Good luck buying and or bidding, the car is here to sell, its not just for sale and I will not relist it week after week trying to get every last penny out of it.

I bought a 64 Catalina safari and it will take this cars place. I have put a tremendous amount of money and time into this car, and am ready to lose money, but no more time, so PLEASE, dont waste it, bid to buy, don't delay in putting the immediate deposit down and paying for it. The car can stay here for 2 months, no charge-

I will not let you come here and restore it or take a shower and have dinner here either....that would be annoying. It needs to be paid for within a week. You can't show up and pay for it or change your mind after you bid/buy it. If I wanted to deal with all that goes with selling a car that way, i would put a retail price on it and wait until someone came along that just had to have one of these cars with these options...they are out there...the cars, and the buyers for them.... Either way, you will be getting this car for far less than my recent repair bill, so you should be very happy with the car. PLEASE WATCH CLOSELY. I have a history of lowering the buy it now or reserve (not sure how I will list it just yet) but I have done this in the past to get things sold and over-with... so watch closely. I may deliver the car to a neighboring state or perhaps a little further.. just make an offer. It would be trailered and delivered...perhaps late at night if that would work out for me.... I am likely missing some things..but this is better than most dealer or private seller descriptions...they leave out the bad things it seems... and the photos all seem to make things look better than they are. This is not a repainted cover up job car. You will not be overpaying for a cheap paint job, or have to deal with greasy front end parts, greasy engine compartment etc. It was all scrubbed and cleaned and painted when the engine was out.

I think the car was built in Pontiac Michigan....just in case that matters.

I called the shop that did the motor, transmission and install. They will have a copy of all the work that was done in detail. They keep copies on file, so its not a problem.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.

Sci-fi movie Jinn features car designer, Firebird-bodied Camaro

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

If 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.

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am

Mon, 13 May 2013

No, 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.
