This is a 1974 Pontiac Firebird with a 455 Pontiac big block, and Turbo 400 Trans. It does have a Posi Rear end but I am not sure of the gear ratio. The Engine is out of a 73 Grand Prix. The Engine does run and has been started periodically since its been off the road. Has a set of Corvette Hubs for the wheels.
I bought this car some time about 10 years ago, The guy I bought it off of had already swapped out the motor and transmission. He told me it was from a 73 Pontiac Grad Prix and it had a Turbo 400 Trans with a shift kit. Originally Red, Painted Black by Maco, also repaired. New Exhaust about 7 years ago. Had it on the Road Briefly, was Very Fast. Had to move so Car sat at friends house, never got around to Finishing it, both Time and Money. Floors are solid, interior is mostly gone just seats and dash remain. Passenger Door is showing serious rot. Air Cleaner wont fit under hood needs Shaker hood or cut hood. Solid Project Car, Needs Work, Running Engine. Please Feel Free to make offers. Check Pictures and ask Questions. The Car is Running but either the Linkage to Trans being Disconnected or possibly the transmission line rotting it wont go in gear. Pretty sure its the Linkage and was taken off by my friends father to move the car. I do have Ignition Key but can not find Door/Trunk Key. Also Fuel Pump is new and battery is new as of 1 year ago. I can not think of any thing else to say, I never had the time or work area for this project, put a lot of money into it via maco and exhaust plus original cost of car. My loose could be your Gain. All reasonable offers considered.
Buyer Must Arrange Pick Up For the Car Either Locally or by a Transport Service
Sold As Is, Please Ask Questions before buying

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.
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.
Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Here comes the Judge. Court is in session. The verdict is in. How many more tired clichés can we come up with? It hardly seems to matter, because it's happening: Trans Am Depot has announced via the teaser video below that it is launching a 2014 GTO, complete with Carousel Red (bright orange, really) paint and full Judge badging.
The car is based on Trans Am Depot's 6T9 Goat, which, in case you don't get the reverential references, is meant to mimic the look of the 1969 Pontiac GTO. As with the company's other cars -including the 2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am we recently drove - the GTO will be based on the current Chevy Camaro, which means two doors, V8 engines and rear-wheel drive, just like the muscle cars of days past.
As for actual details of what's under the 2014 GTO's hood, we're completely left hanging. We'd expect some sort of power adder (turbo, supercharger or possibly some other form of a highly massaged version of the Camaro's V8), and we certainly know that GM has any number of hi-po crate engines to choose from.
