1993 Pontiac Sunbird Se Convertable, Red With White Top, California Car on 2040-cars
Indio, California, United States
|
This is a 93 Pontiac Sunbird SE Convertible. The previous owner has diabetes and couldn't see well enough to drive and had to stop driving. He parked the car in his garage in 2004 and it has been there ever since. Please take a look at my YouTube video http://youtu.be/cMwZnruEeN4 (Just copy and paste to your browser) for some reason Ebay would not allow a click-able link.
Upon taking possession of the car last month, I replaced the fuel tank with a new one. I also installed a new fuel pump, fuel gauge sender, fuel hoses in the fuel module, and all three fuel filters. I cleaned the fuel injectors, installed a new battery and it fired right up. I changed the oil (with Pennzoil synthetic blend) and installed a new oil filter. I changed the air filter and plug wires to bring the car back to excellent running condition. I will provide receipts for all the parts I bought. I have been a mechanic for 30+ years, so rest assured that all the work I did is by the book. The engine runs smooth with no abnormal noises and no leaks. The engine is tight and doesn't have any exhaust smoke, even in the morning after the first start. The Trans also shifts smooth without any abnormal problems, and also doesn't leak. All the lights work, the radio and cassette player work fine also. The car drives fine, brakes work good, dash lights all work. The spare tire, jack, and lug wrench are all in the trunk. I also have some touch up paint I will include. Now for the problems. Due to sitting for so long, the power windows are stiff and need to be cleaned and lubed. The driver side window works ok but the passenger window needs help to go up and down. The rear windows try to move but I can't get them all the way down. The switches and motors are all working, the windows are just very stiff from sitting because the grease on the regulators has hardened. The power top is not working, most likely due to dirty contacts (from non-use) in the switch although I have not looked into it. The power door locks also don't work probably because of dirty switch contacts. The tires are usable, but they are different brands and not in perfect condition. If I were going to keep the car I would put a new set of tires on it. The AC doesn't have any freon in it. It might seal up once it has freon and has been put back into service, although, I cannot guarantee it. Often the hot oil circulating past the seals and o-rings causes them to soften and seal up. I originally planned to repair most of the issues mentioned above, but I decided to offer the car for a lower price in case there were some buyers who preferred a lower price and who could take care of the remaining issues with the car on their own. I am willing to entertain an offer that includes the windows, door locks, power top, and AC working. If the high bidder is from CA, I will get the car smog checked at a legitimate smog station and I will provide them with the receipt. Since the car will likely go out of state, I have not registered or smog tested it. Also, since the car has not been registered since 2004, it is no longer in the DMV computer, therefore, there are no back fees or penalties due. Out of state buyers will not have to worry about any of this. I will simply send you the title and a bill of sale. If you have any questions...feel free to email me. I will respond promptly. Thank you, Josh |

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.

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.
Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally
Fri, 13 Jun 2014The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.
