1971 Pontiac Formula 400 Firebird.  I bought this car 18 months ago from the original day one, loving owner.  Tuned it and fixed a couple of minor items.   It is a fully restored, numbers matching, completely unmolested car in Quezal Gold with Black interior.  Auto trans with console, A/C, Power Brakes and Steering.  Original AM/FM radio, honeycomb wheels (just as originally ordered) and brand new tires.  Odometer reads 56,560 miles...I assume that to mean 156.5k, but not relevant since the restoration.
I have the original Georgia title (4/14/71), and the original Installment Sales Contract for $5215 with a loan of $2086 at 11.52%!  Also have the original Bill of Sale, the original Sales Contract Agreement with Smith-Johnson Pontiac, GA, and the owners log of every expense from 1971 to 2011.  There are a couple of small paint cracks in the elastomer nose, as usual with these cars - see the pic.  Otherwise, everything works, looks and runs perfectly...couldn't be nicer. The trim rings for the wheels are in the trunk (see pic) and perfect...just not mounted at this time. 
I am not a dealer.  This is a private sale from my personal collection.  I have owned 110 different cars over the years.  If  I tell you it is 'nearly perfect', then 1) that's because no car is perfect, and 2) you can believe what I say.  This is a full #1 condition vehicle.
I have 110 additional recent pics.  All those original documents referred to above are in picture format for email. 
 Need answers?....write me.  Happy to field all questions.

I will need a $2000 deposit within two days, and full payment by bank check, wire or cash within 5 days.  I am happy to help arrange shipping for you if you cannot pick it up.

GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes

Mon, 01 Oct 2012

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.

Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

NASCAR driver Tony Stewart is making good use of his nickname Smoke in new videos inspired by the 1970s classic Smokey and the Bandit. The original is one of the quintessential automotive movies of its era with a fantastic combination of slapstick comedy and great car stunts in a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. If you've never seen it, check it out immediately.
In the new six-part Smoke IS the Bandit web series, Stewart takes on the role of Burt Reynolds' famous character complete with huge mustache. But instead of trying to smuggle cases of Coors beer it's Mobil 1 oil. The series promises to recreate many of the famous scenes from the movie and includes cameos from other NASCAR drivers.
To complete the look, future videos just need a quality replacement for a young Sally Field to ride shotgun. It would also be really cool if Reynolds could make a brief appearance at some point. Scroll down to check out the trailer and the first episode in the series.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM

Fri, 16 Oct 2009

Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
