For Sale,

                 Beautiful 1976 Trans-Am, all restoration done about one year ago. The car drives super tight and straight, it has power steering and power disc brakes. This car can be driven anywhere with confidence. The engine is the origional 400 cu.in. and rebuilt with less than 1000 miles on it. It has a mild cam with roller rockers, an Edelbrock intake and headers. The engine compartment is very clean and detailed. The estimated horsepower is about 350.The turbo trans was replaced with a 700R  with overdrive so cruising on the highway at 65 the rpm's are at 2200. The rearend is a 3:73 posi unit and rebuilt.  The car has beautiful black paint with a red interior that just sets off the black paint. The interior has no rips or busted seams. It has power windows and power door locks. It also retains the orig. am/fm radio with an 8 track player. The orig radio has been disconnected and a new after marker radio an c/d player installed in the glove box. This car needs nothing except maybe the Firebird chicken on the hood. When the car was repainted I choose not to put it on, just personal choice. All other Trans-Am badging is there. The decal can be bought at many of the after market places. The rims are factory, and in excellent condition with no curb rash or marks. The tires have about 1000 miles on them.

I'm selling the car to make room for my next project I have set the reserve low on this car, you couldn't rebuild this car for what the reserve is. The car is sold with no warranty and the buyer is responsable for the shipping, but I will assist in anyway I can. Connecticut does not issue titles on any cars older than 81 so it is sold with a bill of sales.  If you have any questions call 860-463-3730.  Thanks for looking.

2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern

Mon, 07 Nov 2011

General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.

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.
