Medicine Bow, Wyoming, United States
|
UP FOR AUCTION : RARE! 1978 PONTIAC FORMULA 400 4-SPEED T-TOP PROJECT. THIS 'BIRD WAS HARD TO FIND, ONLY A HANDFUL MADE (YOU PONTIAC GUYS WOULD KNOW HOW MANY). IT COMES ORIGINAL WITH THE HURST 4-SPEED (REBUILT), AND ALL THE OTHER PARTS, EXCEPT ENGINE BLOCK. THE BODY IS ROUGH, AND WILL NEED ALOT OF WORK. THERE ARE RUSTOUT AREAS IN COMMON PLACES (FENDER BOTTOMS, REAR QUARTERS) PANS ARE SOLID. FIREWALL, AND DASH SOLID. THE INTERIOR IS "DRIVER QUALITY", WITH TYPICAL WEAR. THERE IS NO MOTOR. ALTHOUGH, IT CAME WITH A SMALL BLOCK CHEVY (EASY TO REPLACE). THIS CAR IS KIND OF AN ANOMOLY. WHEN INTRODUCED TO THE MARKET, IT WAS CLAIMED TO HAVE A "PONTIAC" ENGINE. THIS CAUSED QUITE A STIR AMONG PONTIAC ENTHUSIASTS. THIS AUCTION INCLUDES AN EXTRA DRIVER SIDE DOOR. IT HAS BECOME APPARENT THAT THE MARKET IS SLOW FOR A "PROJECT CAR", THUS I HAVE DECIDED TO LOWER THE PRICE. AND THE FACT THAT EVERYONE WANTS A "QUICK FLIP". THIS ONE IS WELL WORTH THE EFFORT REQUIRED TO MAKE IT A SUPER COOL MUSCLE CAR. THIS WILL BE THE LAST AND ONLY TIME I'M GONNA LIST IT. I'D JUST SOON RESTORE IT MYSELF TO SHOW ALL THE LAZY, WHINING PAINT AND BODY GUYS HOW IT'S DONE. A VERY WORTHY PROJECT. MY PLANS WERE TO DROP IN AN SBC, AND GET IT ON THE ROAD. RESTORE IT AS I GO. BUT, I AM UNABLE AT THIS TIME TO GIVE HER THE ATTENTION SHE NEEDS. MY LOSS, YOUR GAIN. $1450 . SERIOUS INQUIRIES, CALL STEVE 307.332.0383 FOR SALE LOCALLY, I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CLOSE THE AUCTION AT ANY TIME. GOOD LUCK!! |

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series
Mon, 10 Mar 2014NASCAR 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.
How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.
