I have a very nicely restored 1978 trans am for sale. The car was completely restored within the last 5 years and is in excellent condition showing less than 50,000 original miles. This was restored as a light resto mod with lots of upgrades see list below of things done. The entire engine was meticulously gone through and rebuilt with forged pistons, aluminum heads with light port job, lunati cam, aluminum intake and quadrajet carb, dynoed at approx 300 hp at rear wheels and I have all paperwork from dyne. The suspension was redone, replacing nearly everything and installing a new limited slip w/3:55 gears in the rear end. As for the body the car was very solid when we found it and only had 1 small rust spot behind drivers rear wheel other than that it was very clean so no major body work was needed and the car was repainted the original nautical blue with a little more metalic added to really make the car stand out. The interior was completely redone with new seats front and rear and a custom audio system added. this car needs nothing and I would not hesitate to take it on a cross country trip. Well over $20,000.00 was invested in the rebuild!

Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.

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.
