This listing is for my 1969 Pontiac Firebird. I bought it in 2009. It had 104,125 miles on it. It was a numbers matching car that needed restoration. But i bought it from the original owner and it was never hit so i figured it was a good place to start. I have all the original documentation showing the cars originality, plus all my work that i had done. i completed a full frame up restoration which i have pics of everything. I have $37.000 invested in this car. It was completed in 2011 and the odometer still says 104,983. I didnt drive it much. It is covered in the garage as we speak, like always and i am looking to free up some money to make room for something else. It is all original except for the rims and tires and the exhaust, i went a lil bigger for the throatier sound. It has its original 350 which i had redone at the local speed shop, the original two speed powerglide which again i had rebuilt at the local tranny shop and the rear end was upgraded to a bigger gear with new seals gaskets and fluid. the whole drivetrain has less then 1000 miles on it. Every single part of this car was either changed, detailed, refurbished, down to every brake line clip. The pics will tell you that. If you need pics of a specific thing feel free to ask for it. This car took me 20 months to complete and i am very happy with the results, i am sure you will be too.

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile
Sun, 29 Apr 2012Say 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.
Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally
Fri, 13 Jun 2014The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.
