This 1969 Pontiac Firebird Convertible was originally sold at Lester Goodson Pontiac in Houston, Tx as shown in the
PHS (Pontiac Historical Services) documentation that will be included in the sale of the car. We acquired this
classic from a gentleman here in the Phoenix area who owned it for 30 plus years. It is quite obvious that this
bird was not driven during the summer months down here in the Arizona heat and prior to that spent its life in a
dry Climate controlled garage. If you have been looking for an investment quality classic convertible that is ready
to be driven and enjoyed then this is the one for you!! I will do my best to provide enough pictures, a video, and
an honest description to help you decide if this is the classic for you! Sit back and enjoy!
This ’69 Firebird Convertible has a great stance and shows off its curvy, sexy body lines just as you would want
it to. Extremely solid body that appears to have its original body panels, with excellent panel gaps. We are told
A professional cosmetic restoration was done approximately 15 years ago on the body. The body is extremely straight
and wears a beautiful, high quality Palladium Silver finish (which is also the original color). This Firebird
still wears the chrome trim that was included in the Decor Group package it was ordered with which includes chrome
trim around wheel wells and along the rocker panels. All of the chrome looks excellent!! Overall the body is truly
in fantastic condition but is not flawless. I did notice a couple of very tiny blemishes in the trim around the
front nose and a few tiny chips that had been touched up. This Firebird will get thumbs up and comments everywhere
you go and is ready for the local shows and car nights.
Lets drop the top and slide inside this sweet bird. The black interior is in fantastic condition with no rips or
tears and really barely any sign of wear. According to the PHS documents the interior was originally black and the
car even had a black convertible top. The original center console is in great condition and the original stereo
looks as it did back in 1969. Dash pad looks excellent as do the door panels and carpeting. Front and rear seat
belts have also been accounted for. Gauges are very clear and function correctly. All of the wiring from the
engine harness back to the rear wire harness in in excellent condition so lights and blinkers all function
correctly. The original steering wheel shows minor wear with Pontiac logo in tact.
This beautiful Firebird Convertible is powered by a completely rebuilt, very strong, correct 400 V8. It is the
original matching number motor I can testify that this car runs sweet and strong at all speeds! The Turbo
Hydromatic Transmission shifts strong and crisply and was also rebuilt. Handling is a breeze thanks to the Power
steering and newer front/rear suspension components. Braking was also nicely upgraded by the factory with Power
front disc brakes. This Firebird cruises along nice and cool and is riding on a brand new set of 225/60/15 BFG
Radial TA tires that are wrapped around a very nice set of original Rally wheels. This original high horsepower
Firebird 400 convertible it is a super strong, and great running classic that you can drive and enjoy for years to
come!!

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.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes

Thu, 10 May 2012

When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.

Fri, 08 Aug 2014

General Motors has another spate of recalls to announce. This time they cover 312,280 vehicles worldwide, including 269,041 of in the US, in a total of six campaigns. In 2014, the automaker has recalled 29,079,765 vehicles worldwide, with 25,754,356 of those in the US.
The largest among them covers 215,243 units of the Saturn Vue from 2002-2004 model years worldwide, 202,115 in the US. It's possible for the for the key to be removed even when the ignition isn't in the OFF position. The company knows of two crashes and one injury caused by this problem. Dealers are checking the parts and replacing the ignition cylinder and key set, if necessary.
Next is 72,826 models worldwide (48,059 vehicles in the US) of the 2013 Cadillac ATS four-door sedan, 2013 Buick Encore and 2013 Chevy Trax in Canada. It's possible that the for lap belt pretensioner to retract but not to lock, which could increase occupant movement during a crash. Both front, outboard lap belt pretensioners are being replaced, and a stop-sale is in effect on unsold models until the problem is repaired. There are no known crashes or injuries, though.
