Here is a running, driving, numbers matching 1978 Y88 Special Edition Trans Am. It has all of the correct, original and hard to find Y88 goodies as you can see in the pictures. The dash VIN matches the engine block number stampings, the vehicles registration and the original build sheet. The vehicle is registered to me, I am a private seller. It has its original and correct fender tag, also pictured. The pictures of the car were taken this morning. All of the air conditioning components are in place, it even has a few of the original tower clamps in place. I believe the radiator and even the radiator cap are correct for the year. The car much of its origianl paint and I believe the decals are also factory. It will need paint and some bodywork. I realize the front seats have 1979 or never covers on them. As you can see the floors and trunk are solid.The dash is in fantastic shape. I have just spent well over $2,000 on 5 used OEM spoilers for the car, a tune up, an oil change, radiator flush, transmission oil change and a rear differential oil change. It has a new starter, a new alternator and a new battery. The engine does not burn oil, or make any strange noises, it runs very strong and shifts through the gears nicely. I drove it 120 miles yesterday. The car has a partial build sheet which clearly shows this to be a Y88 car. It does not have the W72 or WS6 option. The car is located in southwestern Canada, about 5 minutes from Sumas, Washington which is a major import export hub. People living in the United States can import this car through a broker in Sumas for a fee of about $400. I am more than willing to assist a buyer by driving the car to Sumas WA and helping load it on a truck for you. Of course you are also welcome to come here and pick the car up for yourself. I welcome any inpections you wish but they will be done at your cost. A non refundable deposit of $500 is required withing 24 hours of the auction closing. Please ask questions before placing a bid.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes

Thu, 10 May 2012

When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.

Rumormill: DeLorean Motor Company considering rescuing Pontiac Solstice?

Wed, 07 Oct 2009

DeLorean Motor Company Pontiac Solstice renderings - Click above for high-res image gallery
General Motors has made a science out of sharing platforms. So when the company's Kappa platform was introduced for a new rear-drive roadster to be distributed across three different motor divisions, you'd have figured the program was pretty safe, right? Unfortunately for the workers at the Wilmington Assembly Plant which manufactured the Kappa roadsters, those three divisions were Pontiac, Saturn and Opel - three units which the General has either sold or shut down. Which is a shame, because a perfectly good rear-drive roadster platform is a heck of a thing to waste.
In one of the strangest rumors we've heard recently, however, our compatriots over at Jalopnik report that the DeLorean Motor Company (yes, that DeLorean Motor Company) is considering buying the plant and the platform from GM and putting it back into production as a new DMC.

How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car

Fri, 17 Oct 2014

Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.
