1976 PONTIAC TRANS AM 455 4-SPEED


THIS CAR NEEDS A COMPLETE RESTORATION.  THE SHEET METAL HAS SURFACE RUST ESPECIALLY AROUND THE REAR GLASS.  THE FRAME IS SOLID.  THE CAR WAS SILVER FROM THE FACTORY AND WAS PAINTED RED SOMEWHERE ALONG THE LINE.


THE MOTOR LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE REBUILT IT AS IT HAS FRESH PAINT AND TURNS WELL BUT IT HAS NO RADIATOR OR BELTS SO I NEVER GOT TO THE POINT I FELT LIKE I WAS CLOSE TO TRYING TO START IT.  THE MOTOR AND TRANS ARE 100% NUMBERS MATCHING AND THESE BIG INCH T/A CARS ARE GETTING HARD TO FIND.  I HAVE A 71 FORMULA, A 72 FORMULA, A 74 TRANS AM, ANOTHER 76 TRANS AM AND I WILL NOT LIVE LONG ENOUGH TO GET TO THIS ONE.  IT IS WORTH SELLING TO SOMEONE THAT APPRECIATES THE ORIGINALITY AND WILL RESTORE IT.


THE PHS SHOW THIS CAR HAS NO "DEALER HOLDBACK" AND HAS ACTUALLY BEEN INVOICED TO GENERAL MOTORS.  MY WIFE AND I ARE IN THE CAR BUSINESS AND THIS MEANS THE CAR WAS A SPECIAL EVENT VEHICLE OF SOME SORT.  THESE DAYS IT WOULD MEAN THE CAR HAS BEEN DISPLAYED AT A RACE OR HAS BEEN IN A MAGAZINE ARTICLE OR SOMETHING ALONG THOSE LINES.  KIND OF COOL AND MAKES IT UNIQUE.


EVERYTHING IS THERE FOR RESTORATION.  THE CAR IS LISTED ON CRAIGSLIST AND IT WON'T LAST VERY LONG AS THERE JUST SIMPLY ISN'T THAT MANY LEFT OUT THERE.  FOR QUESTIONS THE BEST RESULT WILL BE TEXTING ME AT 704-TWO-3-TWO-9252.  MY NAME IS BILL THANKS FOR LOOKING!

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.

CNN chronicles young girl building Pontiac Fiero

Fri, 26 Oct 2012

At fourteen years of age, Kathryn DiMaria has already done what many self-proclaimed gearheads won't even attempt in their lifetimes. The Dearborn, Michigan teen is rebuilding a car from the ground up.
The intrepid youngster asked her parents when she was just twelve to start a Pontiac Fiero project, even offering to pony up all the funds herself. Father, Jerry DiMaria only expected the project to last a few months, but two years later, Kathryn is still at it. In this CNN video, the two are at Maker Faire (a DIY festival) rebuilding a 3.4-liter V6 engine out of a Chevrolet Camaro to replace the 2.8-liter mill found in the Fiero.
The whole family hast pitched in, with Kathryn's mother teaching her how to sew in order to complete the interior, father Jerry providing much of the technical know-how, and even her sister is chronicling Kathryn's progress through photos. Jerry even started a thread in a Fiero forum which has been live for two years and is now 22 pages long. Of the project, one forum member wrote, "welcome to the madness."

GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns

Sun, 05 Oct 2014

Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.
