1979 Pontiac Trans Am Y84 Special Edition With Ws6 Package on 2040-cars
Indianola, Illinois, United States
1979 Pontiac trans am real Bandit Y84 specula Edition with factory WS6 package. This car was born with every single
option I ever wanted. It has the WS6 package from the factory which gives the car 8" wide wheels and 4 wheel disc
brakes. It also gave the car a special handling package suspension upgrade. This car has NO rust anywhere. There is
zero rot under this car. It still has the original qtrs on the car. It also has the original radio still in the car
with the original rear deck in tact. I believe the factory speakers might even be in the car. I just never looked.
The radio still works and plays music. This is the highest factory real Bandit I have ever come across. Power
windows, power door locks, cruise control, tilt, power trunk release, deluxe vinyl interior, special dome lamp, air
conditioning(not presently hooked up), the options are all listed on the window sticker for you to read. It comes
with the original WS6 wheels that I took off the car before I had the new wheels and tires installed because I
wanted new wheels and tires. The old wheels are in amazing shape, They just need to be repainted. New items on this
car include gas tank, brakes, interior, headliner, Pypes x exhaust including the drop down tips I never put on,
carpet, wheels, tires and most of the weather trim. I have the PHS report along with a copy of the window sticker
which is all included. I am also selling this car with the cover shown in the picture. The original 403 is gone. I
now have an amazing Pontiac 455 that was rebuilt in 2015. This is a 1970 block. Arguably the best year 455 ever
made. The engine has less than a 1000 miles on it. I cant tell you enough how incredible this engine runs. It never
even smokes after being in storage all winter. It runs like a top. I just had DRC racing tune the car this Spring.
DRC told me that this car has a 4 bolt main. The Pontiac 455 motors are not getting any easier to find. DRC
confirmed that this is a 1970 block. There is stampings on the bottom of the engine. The turbo 400 trans was also
rebuilt and has a shift kit. It's a perfect match for this engine. I am guessing the engine makes around 400HP.
Plenty of power to turn this big tires.

General Lee takes on Bandit T/A in classic Hollywood car showdown [w/poll]
Fri, 26 Aug 2011You don't have to be born in the 1960s or 1970s to be able to recognize the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard and the Pontiac Trans Am from Smokey and the Bandit. These old school four-wheeled stars seem to transcend demographics thanks to the miles of film that show the orange 1969 Dodge Charger and the jet-black 1977 Pontiac Trans Am performing seemingly impossible stunts.
The folks at Hot Rod magazine are obviously hip to this fact, and they put together a fun video in tribute of the instantly recognizable duo. Hit the jump to watch on as Sam Young and James Smith replace Bo Duke and The Bandit for a bit of dirt-road shenanigans in a pair of otherwise well cared for classics. We're not so sure we'd call it the best chase scene ever, but it sure looks like a lot of fun.
More importantly, which of these two cars would you rather own? Have your say in our poll below.
1969 Pontiac GTO Judge vs. 2006 GTO, which Goat gets your vote?
Mon, 08 Sep 2014The Pontiac GTO was perhaps the most iconic muscle car of the '60s and early '70s. With its beefy V8 and color palette screaming for attention, it summarized in a single vehicle everything that made the era so appealing to many young people. Pontiac tried to collect just a few drops of that aura again in the 2000s with a revived GTO, but with decidedly mixed results. The performance was still there with its big V8, but the looks never quite lived up to the powertrain. Now, Generation Gap wants to know which of these Goats is the one to own.
Things are skewed immediately because the 2006 GTO here is a real ringer. It comes from famous tuner Ken Lingenfelter's collection, and it's a one-off example partially fettled by GM Performance boasting a twin-turbocharged LS2 V8 with a claimed 750 horsepower and a wide-body kit. This Goat definitely isn't what you're going to find just browsing for one to buy in the newspaper. Still, dip the throttle just a little, and this GTO pulls like a freight train. It's enough to turn the two hosts into giggling schoolboys behind the wheel.
The '69 GTO Judge here is also out of Lingenfelter's collection, but this one is all stock with a 400-cubic-inch (6.6-liter) V8 and a Ram Air hood for a claimed 366 hp. It might not have the unbelievable power of the turbo '06, but it makes up for it with style to spare.
NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys
Mon, 10 Jun 2013According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.
