I am selling a 1968 firebird 350 convertible! it still starts runs/drives good!!  There were not very many made and probably not many left!!  As you can see in the pictures it is pretty original.  The interior looks nice and very original.  It looks stock to me except for the chrome valve cover gaskets, air filter, and radio. The last oil change was at 52901. Do not assume anything.  Any concerns please have it inspected before biding or buying. I welcome local inspection of the car! I have the car for sale local and I reserve the right to end this auction at any time due to a local sale.  As far as I understand it has had two basic owners, with the first one selling it in 1999. This has been garage kept and been driven only a couple hundred miles a year since 1999.  It could use minor body work and a repaint in my opinion.  It had the floor plan replaced with new carpet, and the fuel GM fuel Meter and lines.  It was last tuned up in 2011.  This car does come with records.  The tires are still good but probable over 20 years old.

Just to get a idea what it would cost to redue.  I went to a very good body shop that did $8000 worth of work on my BMW when I got rear ended.  He gave me a quote of $3500 for a complete repaint and all the body work.  The majority of body work was on the sides.  I went online to the below website, and the prices look pretty good to me, so I think you could save a lot on body work by replacing some of the panals that go from $30 to $300 per panal if I am correct.  These are just my thoughts, no implied or expressed warranties.  I hope this answers a lot of your questions regarding bodywork and paint.

At 52087 miles the headers were replaced.  In 2011 the brake lines were replaced.  In 2012 a new radio was installed.  At 52901 in 2011 the car had a complete tune up includingplugs,points,condenerser,wires,cap,roter  New power steering gear box and pitman arm..  In 2005 new carpet, and in 2003 new floor pans, front and rear spring mounts and shackels, inner rocker rails and frame connectors.  I sold this car to a body shop in Oakland 2 days ago for $11500.  He did not read the payment terms.  If you want to pay by check, funds need to clear before I will release the car.  I feel standard ebay selling policy.  Thanks!

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.

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile

Sun, 29 Apr 2012

Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
