heads. TH400 trans, 12 bolt rear axle, AC, power steering, power brakes, disc brakes, Rallye wheels, Rallye
instruments and De Luxe vinyl interior.
The car was originally silver, and during the restoration we chose Lucerne Blue which was a Firebird only color.
This car was first sold by Lee Adams Pontiac in Oakland and has been in sunny CA all the time so there is no rust.
The body is beautiful, straight and with a quality clearcoated buffed paint job. All pieces were painted
separately, and of course all windows, rubber moldings etc were taken off before paint.
Interior is restored with an eye towards keeping as much of the original as possible.
It sports a new era correct wooden steering wheel. The stereo is not hooked up, we will let the new owner put his
own twist on the sound system, and there are two 6x9 speakers hidden under the package tray to connect.
The engine was rebuilt and has some tuning add-ons for an incredible performance,
this machine roars like a lion, yet it purrs smoothly at idle, even ice cold. It has a better camshaft, Edelbrock
intake and carburator, HEI distributor, Hooker headers and Flowmaster exhaust. AC system has been totally rebuilt
with new components and blows ice cold! The engine bay has been beautifully detailed.
Brakes, front and rear suspension, shocks, front and rear springs, fuel tank, subframe bushings, sway bar etc are
all new. All chrome is new, like the windshield and all weatherstripping.
Trunk area is of course restored with a new trunk mat, jack and spare wheel matching the other Rallye wheels, with
a new tire still wearing its print.
We have Pontiac Historical Society papers on the car including a reprinted Window Sticker.
Here is a car that you can enjoy driving, weekend racing, showing and collecting while it appreciates in value!

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am
Wed, 15 May 2013When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes
Mon, 31 Mar 2014When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:
