1967 Pontiac Firebird on 2040-cars
Keno, Oregon, United States
|
This 1967 Pontiac firebird, is a #matching 326(v-8) 250 hp., 2 speed powerglide, bucket seat, with yj engine code. It is all original(except radio), and in good condition. It would make a good restoration project. It wouldn't take much to make it run. It will almost start right now. Its very close to running now. I believe it is just carburation. It is the original 2-barrel quadrijet, and I think it is dirty and needs rebuilt. it is flooding the engine. Like I say, I think it just needs a rebuild carb and I think it would run. everything on the motor looks original, nothing has been changed. the body is in good condition. It has some light surface rust, no scale rust any where except 2 little spots behind the front wheels, on front fender. the spots are about golf ball size ( nothing to serious). The floor pan and trunk pan are in good shape,pretty solid. same goes for the body. No big dents or that kind of damage. its pretty straight. I tried to show the car as accurately as possible in the pictures I took. The car was stored inside for many years. It is very original right down to the stock exhaust system that is still on it, and is in good condition. It has drum brakes, power steering and 2 speed (original) powerglide automatic transmission. It has the original steering wheel on it, and the Pontiac wheels(with good tread) that come with it (no caps came with the wheels though). As near as I can tell, the car has been on the west coast for many years, ending up here in south central Oregon. As I said I tired to show the car as accurately as possible in the pictures. If you have any questions or concerns, or even want more pictures, please don't hesitate to let me know. just call me at 541-273-6681, or write me through ebay, and I will do my best to respond quickly and accurately. Thanks, chuck

CNN chronicles young girl building Pontiac Fiero
Fri, 26 Oct 2012At 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."
GM recalling 778,000 Cobalts and G5s, six deaths reported
Thu, 13 Feb 2014General Motors has announced that it will be recalling 778,562 compact cars after six people were killed in accidents, partially due to the airbags' failure to deploy. An issue with the ignition switch is causing the airbag issues, as well as causing the engine and other components to shut off without warning. The recall covers the 2005 to 2007 model year Chevrolet Cobalt and 2007 Pontiac G5. (Note that the Cobalt pictured above is a 2009 model.)
According to a report from Automotive News, a number of factors can cause the ignition to switch out of the run position, including weights on the key ring, rough or bumpy roads or other "jarring" events. Any of these situations could lead to some vehicle components not functioning properly.
There have been five fatal front-impact crashes that took the lives of six people, although as a GM spokesman noted, all five of the crashes happened off road and at high speed. In each of these cases, though, the lack of airbags wasn't the only lethal factor - alcohol and failure to wear a seat belt also played a role. Outside of the fatal accidents, there have been 17 other crashes where airbags didn't deploy. It's unclear if any of these crashes were caused by the engine shutting off.
How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.
