1967 Firebird Convertible 400 4-speed on 2040-cars
Menlo Park, California, United States
|
This auction is for a 1967 Pontiac Firebird convertible 400 4-speed car. Originally a 326 car that now has a non-original 1967 Pontiac 400 engine (code YD) installed. The Muncie 4-speed transmission and 3.23 dual traction bar rear axle are original to the car. The car runs and drives well, but should be considered a project car. The body retains its solid rust free original floors, trunk pan (with original splatter paint), quarter panels and doors. The paint is old, worn, chipped and scratched. The passenger door has a large shallow dent, the passenger fender has three holes drilled for a mirror and the rear tail panel has a trailer plug installed (see photos). The door jams and the underside of the trunk lid still retail the factory applied white paint. All four cocktail shakers are still on the car. The manual top is torn and will need replacing. The car has new brakes (drum) and wheel cylinders, new tires with 14x6 rally ll wheels, new battery and cables, new fuel pump, new heater core and water pump, new stock exhaust system, new clutch and rebuilt stock 1967 4-speed quadrajet carburetor. The motor runs well with good oil pressure and does not smoke or leak oil, but has a faint knocking sound that comes and goes. The lifters also clatter for a few seconds after the car sits for a few days. When I purchased the car I was told the engine had at one time been rebuilt, but I have no receipts. The transmission shifts smoothly and has a Hurst shifter installed. The rear axle has the factory dual traction bars and operates quietly. The engine and engine compartment have been nicely painted and detailed. The car is equipped with black deluxe interior, factory wood wheel and new carpets have been installed. The driver’s seat bottom is torn and the dash has a 1/2 ” hole drilled under the headlight switch. The original AM radio works and the speaker has been re-coned. Everything on the car such as the lights, gauges, horn, wipers and heater work. The car was originally sold in Rhode Island and appears from some old receipts moved to Texas in early 1970. The car has been in California since the mid-seventies. I have the original protect-o-plate, owner’s manual and body broadcast sheet. This is a solid smooth running and driving project car. It won’t need floors or quarter panels installed. You can drive it as you work to improve its condition. This 47 year old car is sold with no warranties expressed or implied. I have done my best to accurately describe this car. The reserve price is fairly set and I will not reveal it, so no emails asking about what my reserve price is. The car is available for inspection before the auction ends. The time to inspect is before the auction ends, not after you purchase the car. Please only bid if you intend to purchase the car.
On May-30-14 at 10:00:32 PDT, seller added the following information: I've received several requests for a Buy-It- Now price. I've decided to let the auction run it's course. The car will sell to the highest bidder. Thanks |

GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes
Mon, 01 Oct 2012The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.
GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
Aficionauto sits down with The Hoff and KITT
Fri, 10 Oct 2014The latest video from The Aficionauto is the perfect palate cleanser for Knight Rider fans after finding out that Justin Bieber is the voice of KITT in an upcoming film. Host Christopher Rutkowski says that the Knight Industries Two Thousand is one of the most requested vehicles to appear on the series and for good reason - Michael Knight's Pontiac Trans-Am is among the most famous cars to ever appear on television.
While the video isn't able to showcase one of the original KITTs from the series, it does get star David Hasselhoff to drive his personal replica and talk about the lasting legacy of the show. The highlight here might be seeing The Hoff back behind the wheel in the open desert basically recreating Knight Rider's opening sequence.
With all of its flashing lights and gizmos, you can probably make the argument that KITT is pretty cheesy, and the show itself was never exactly a pillar of high-quality drama on television. Despite that, the series still provides a ton of good-natured fun, and The Hoff's continued enthusiasm for it is pretty infectious. Check out The Aficionauto video to take another ride with Knight Rider.
