1988 Fiero GT 5 Speed with a Series II 3.8L Supercharged V6 conversion. This is not a quick and dirty back yard swap. It is a professional conversion performed by Sinister Performance in Fort Wayne Indiana in 2007. Driven just over 10,000 miles since the conversion. The car belonged to a Chassis Systems Engineer for Gm when the conversion was done. The donor car for the conversion was a bone stock 88 GT with 123,000 miles in excellent running condition that was purchased in 2005. There is no rust anywhere including problem areas like the trunk corners, radiator supports, engine compartment under battery tray, etc. The 3800SC Series II engine was a zero mileage factory GM dyno engine manufactured in 1998 (Run once on the dyno for quality control on the assembly line. Still fitted with dyno oil when purchased. 5 Speed Getrag Transmission Primary Modifications: CNC ported supercharger housing, smaller diameter s.c pulley, high capacity fuel system, Series III stainless fuel rails, ceramic coated West Coast Fiero Headers, custom aluminized 2.5 inch exhaust with flowmaster muffler (sounds fantastic) new master cylinder and Spec 2+ clutch, Koni shocks and struts, short throw shifter, many upgraded suspension parts, new 13" brakes front and rear. The battery box was relocated to the front trunk with an optimum battery and accessible trickle charger connection. It has 5 Zigen aluminum Racing wheels and BF Goodrich tires. The goal of the conversion was to retain the original stock appearance and driver comforts. Thus considerable time and expense went into retaining the air conditioner and a late model Pontiac CD stereo was installed. Dash and sail panel speakers were swapped for Polk Audio. A Sunbird turbo instrument cluster was installed which looks identical to the Fieros but has a boost gauge. original paint is an 8/10 and the interior is 9.5/10 Please look at the conversion sheet in the pictures. Over $8500 was spent on the engine swap with Sinister Performance not including the new engine, new wheels, and the car itself. There has been over $20,000 spent on this one of a kind car. The previous description was from the previous owners son. I am selling it for a friend. It is an awesome car and it deserves to be treated how the past few owners have cared for and improved it. I dare say that you would have a had time finding a nicer one. Feel free to call with questions. 334-393-8448

Junkyard Gem: 1991 Pontiac 6000 LE

Sat, Dec 2 2017

Sibling to the Chevrolet Celebrity and Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, the Pontiac 6000 sold pretty well during the early-to-middle 1980s, but had been relegated to the dealership bargain bin and fleet-car cul-de-sac by the time of Operation Desert Shield. Here's a final-year-of-manufacture 6000 LE that I photographed in an Arizona self-service wrecking yard. This car was sold new in Arizona, and it will be crushed in the same state, 26 years later. The LE was the cheapest trim level for the 6000 in 1991, but the original purchaser of this car sprang for a few options. For example, instead of the utterly miserable 2.5-liter Iron Duke four-cylinder, this car packs the 3.1-liter V6. That meant 140 horsepower instead of 110, plus an engine note more like a vacuum cleaner sucking up a spaghetti spill than an ailing blender chewing on walnuts. AM, FM, and cassette. Not only that, but the auto-reverse feature meant that your mixtape cassette wouldn't stop right in the middle of your favorite Roxette tune. This content is hosted by a third party.

Even the wretched Daewoo-built Pontiac LeMans gets more screen time than the forgotten 6000 in this 1991 TV ad featuring the voice of Captain Picard.

This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am

Mon, 13 May 2013

No, 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.
