1973 Pontiac Trans Am, original, numbers matching, PHS documented, "YC" 455 coupe with 78,500 miles.
The interior has the very rare custom corduroy/cloth interior and the interior is in really good condition. The
air conditioning has been removed and the tach and clock no longer work. The Pioneer Super Tuner radio/cassette
still sounds great.
The original matching number 455 block has been recently rebuilt, aligned, bored and fitted with 4 bolt mains, The
block was honed .030 during this process.
The turbomatic 400 transmission and 3.42 rear end are also original to the car. Recent services include a rebuilt
carb, full tune-up, new brakes and master cylinder.
The car had one repaint in 1987. There are a few minor rust issues - one round hole in the rear and bubbling on
the right front fender suggesting rust from inside are examples.
Overall, this is a driver condition car that runs and sounds great. You can tell from the mileage and description
that the car has been mostly garaged since 1987.

Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later

Fri, 12 Sep 2014



Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."

This Auto Aerobics car art ties our brains in knots like pretzels

Sat, 14 Dec 2013

We 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.

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am

Wed, 15 May 2013

When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
