Please don't let the original White surface rusty Patina scare you thinking this is a rust bucket well it's not it only is surface and there's no rust rot any where I do have a lift near by I can send pics the only spot I did notice was the front floor pan about a silver dollar size this car has been indoor storage since 1972 and when I bought it only had 27000 original miles on it so do the Math.

I have all original paper work from Owner (see pics) with Very Rare IDENT-O-PLATE with VIN # plate, plus all frayed Original curtains and all items inside car you see Gurney Oxygen tank are original this is my daily driver on weekends to local shows here in So Cal.

This Pontiac Bonneville Ambulance has never been in any accidents since I have owned it ,The Ambulance has very minimal metal work ever done to it.

It does appear that the left side Quarter panel and doors had some repairs back in the day based on the paint color not matching and where painted an off white NON matched color much brighter white not the egg shell color there's some small area on left center door that has some body filler coming off (very minor) as this is all original repairs from 1960's as it was stored in 72 , all door lines look very nice no sagging of doors or out of alignment to door latches , the front hood and fenders do show nice original rustic patina it does appear the ambulance was original light blue .I do think the lite blue was the original color till the company decided to repaint it Ambulance color (white).

The interior dash is very nice condition considering this is 53 years old still is soft and flexible not dried up or cracking there's some very minor seam breaks on seat area  and sagging of lower panel on door panels very minor.

The headliner is in excellent condition with no fraying or missed stitches also has the rare V shaped zipper in headliner up front for removal of the red light globe which does work like new (wing nut) .

The rubber floor matt is original from Pontiac. I do have all original wheels and hub caps with spare all are 15" also the winner gets all the original parts I removed from Ambulance (upgrade) .

I do have the original finned front hubs and brake parts as I went with disc brakes new owner will receive .

The radio was never installed from factory as this is an Ambulance so there's a delete plate in it's place very rare part.


 

 This Ambulance is registered in my name and insured in my name comes with a California clear title in my name, your welcome to come to my shop for inspection and a test drive and hear the very loud growler siren and see the red light flash as you drive down the street ,

All doors work like they should all windows work fine 3 broken door glass ( have new ones) hinges show some minor surface rust around them and lower door areas too very minor just mentioning it.

Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

NASCAR driver Tony Stewart is making good use of his nickname Smoke in new videos inspired by the 1970s classic Smokey and the Bandit. The original is one of the quintessential automotive movies of its era with a fantastic combination of slapstick comedy and great car stunts in a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. If you've never seen it, check it out immediately.
In the new six-part Smoke IS the Bandit web series, Stewart takes on the role of Burt Reynolds' famous character complete with huge mustache. But instead of trying to smuggle cases of Coors beer it's Mobil 1 oil. The series promises to recreate many of the famous scenes from the movie and includes cameos from other NASCAR drivers.
To complete the look, future videos just need a quality replacement for a young Sally Field to ride shotgun. It would also be really cool if Reynolds could make a brief appearance at some point. Scroll down to check out the trailer and the first episode in the series.

Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.

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."
