1978 Pontiac Trans Am with only 6211 original milesThis Trans Am has only been owned by two previous people since new and is in its original condition right down to the tires. The car was purchased in 1992 from the original owner with 5700 miles and only driven to car shows until 1998 before being stored until now. The entire car is like new from top to bottom and unaltered in any way from original. I can't imagine there are many cars like this still available in the US for sale.The car looks like it came out of a time capsule and still has that new car smell when you open the doors. The paint is absolutely stunning in person as well as the interior and balance of the car. The seats, carpet, dash, headliner, seat belts, steering wheel, door panel and package tray are all PERFECT. The trunk compartment is mint and PERFECT. The engine compartment is bone stock with exception to a battery tender and is PERFECT. The wheels are original was well as the tires, but the tires are not good. You can get away with replacing two tires but I would suggest all four to be safe. From the window sticker you will see that this car has a lot of options with the most important one being the optional engine (T.A. 6.6 400 W-72) The other options include power windows, tilt, ac, deluxe interior, special performance package, sound deadening , truck release, hood bird, drip edge and more. The car is very special because of its originality and extremely low miles. They don't make them like this any more and no one could restore a car and even come close to the condition that this TA is in. The decal on the hood scoop does not appear to match the balance of the decals,but it is correct with the call out letters for the engine option. The owner states the car came that way but there is no way to verify it. This car is not a SE car and I am not trying to represent it that way with the hood scoop lettering . The hood scoop is original an not opened up and still has it drain hose attached with factory clip. You could always remove the decal and replace with the same style lettering on the car. Your choice. I am offering a buy it now option for those of you who would prefer to ending auction early and make a great buy on this original TA. I will require a $2,000 deposit with in 2 days of ending of sale and the balance with in 7 days. I am selling the car "as is" because cars of this age are. I will not be refunding any money so be confident in yourself and ability to complete the sale in full. I can be reached at 248-760-0021 any time to discuss the car and answer any questions that you may have. Thank you for viewing my auction. Bob |

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, 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.
Driving Notes
Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way
Tue, 21 Feb 2012There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.
GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
