 I will write everything I can think of here and hopefully I won't forget anything.  I hate when people aren't honest when selling their car (I've come across big issues that they did not fess up to).  So here is everything.  Ask if you have any questions. 

I bought this car 11/29/2010 and didn't put the title in my name til 5/6/11.  The previous owners did not take good care of it.  It has been in an accident which we could see the scrape on the bumper and found out later the trunk leaked badly.  How bad the accident was I don't know but you can see where the trunk lid is slightly ajar.  I took the spoiler off and resealed everything there (all around the edge and the screw holes) and that took care of the worst of the leaking but it still leaks some - if there is a heavy rain, you don't want stuff in your trunk.  Also in trying to resolve everything - my garage got rid of the dry rotted spare but put a whole spare in the trunk which of course didn't fit in the wheel well.  After lots of arguing, I finally got another compact to put in there but the rim center is too small for the jack/tools holder part so the trunk doesn't lay flat (but it's at least usable whereas it wasn't with a full size tire).  The leaking might be resolved with new weather stripping but I'm not sure. 

Ever since I have owned it, it has done a hiccup, slight kick thing when doing a soft acceleration but as soon as you do a harder acceleration, it goes away.  Don't know the cause of it and the garage didn't answer that question.  Also there is a slight stick to the gas pedal sometimes when doing that first acceleration for that trip (the gas pedal doesn't stick down but you have to punch it to get the pedal to move).  I'm told this is not the pedal itself but something else which I can't remember what they said. 

The plastic molding around the windows and paint off some of the metal on the window and windshield wipers is coming off.  Just cosmetic.  I intended to fix and just never could figure out what it was I needed to order.  Driver side mirror has scraps from my mailbox post.

The previous owners told me the CD player does not play.  I don't know as I have not wanted to ruin/lose any of my CD's so I've just been using the radio. 

Service history (does not include all oil changes just the ones I kept the receipt for - I did change the oil and rotated tires on a regular basis):
5/31/11 - Rotors replaced front and back and new brakes put on
6/9/11 - Replaced AC Compressor and alignment
11/25/11 - Front axle (I think passenger side) replaced
12/29/11 - Fuel Sending Kit
1/20/12 - New battery
3/9/12 - Oil Change and 4 new tires (177,727 miles)
4/8/12 - Rotors turned and I can't read what the other thing was that was done (something cheap)
6/25/12 - Oil Change and rotate tires
8/22/12 - Left front hub assembly, oil change and new air filter
9/10/12 - Replaced coil (something with a misfire)
10/18/12 - Front passenger door repaired after a deer hit me (with me sitting still) - A little stiffer than the other doors but opens and closes fine
12/7/12 - Oil Change and tire rotation
12/12/12 - Air Flow Sensor replaced
3/7/13 - Oil change, tire rotation, fuel injector cleaner, Lucas treatment, Transmission kit

The car makes noises, the fabric on the ceiling is separating, the LED lights for the clock/radio don't work well but I've been driving it at least 50 miles a day 4 days a week.  I'm just ready for a luxury car.

$1000 deposit required after 48 hours and full payment due within 7 days from end of auction.  Deposit is non-refundable.  Sale is "as is" and final.  Buyer is responsible for pickup/delivery.  Any questions, please ask.

Junkyard Gem: 1992 Pontiac Sunbird convertible, with extremely rad W25 Appearance Package

Sun, Dec 22 2019

Radwood has sparked a revival in the appreciation of goofy 1980s and 1980s automotive fashions, from neon-colored tape stripes to excessive TURBO badging to ads featuring horrifying Nagel-style women with radio faceplates instead of eyes. I see a lot of discarded cars that would have been ideal to bring to Radwood, and today's Junkyard Gem is even radder than, say, a purple Mercury Tracer Trio or a teal Chevy Beretta GT or even the elusive Dodge Daytona IROC R/T (yes, there were IROC Daytonas): a genuine Pontiac Sunbird SE convertible with the W25 Appearance Package and Bright White Star wheels. The W25 package got you a white Sunbird with kicky script badging, white wheels, and — if you opted for the optional 3.1-liter V6 — these candy-cane-influenced red-and-white displacement badges on the fenders. Now this is rad! The white interior got dirty fast, especially if the owner left the convertible top down, and these wheels were tough to keep clean for more than a few hours. This one appears to have spent many years sitting abandoned with the top down, judging by the completely trashed interior. The base engine for 1992 was the good old Cavalier four-banger, complete with 111 horsepower. This 3.1-liter engine made a respectable-for-1992 140 horses, for plenty of torque-steery, tire-squealy fun. As a J-Body car, the Sunbird was a sibling to the Chevrolet Cavalier in 1992 (the J-based Cadillac Cimarron, Oldsmobile Firenza, and Buick Skyhawk departed before the end of the 1980s). Starting in 1994, the Pontiac Sunfire replaced the Sunbird, continuing in production all the way through the demise of the J platform in 2005. This content is hosted by a third party.

Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO

Thu, 08 Aug 2013

Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.

Wanted: 1967 Pontiac GTO for a special Father's Day

Thu, 07 Jun 2012

Jim Sharp of Elkhorn, Wisconsin needs a red 1967 Pontiac GTO to make his dad's Father's Day, possibly his last one, something extra special.
Back in the '60s, Jim's dad, Ken, drove a cherry red 1967 GTO to California for a job. He met a girl, got married and decided his wife's 1965 Ford Mustang was more fuel efficient than the Goat and the GTO was sold. As the story almost always goes, Ken has had seller's regret ever since.
Jim always meant to find a 1967 GTO and, with his dad's help, restore it. But life got in the way, time slipped by and Ken was recently diagnosed with esophageal cancer and given about three months to live.
