 This is a 1979 Firebird Formula with the original 301 engine. It has new tires and a new Holley Carburetor on it. I have the original Quadrojet carburetor if the buyer would like it. Original rims with a second set of rim rings. The car has a clear title and is ready to be sold. This specific car with the 301 engine lists on nada.com classic cars between 7,500 and 16,000. A little TLC and the right buyer and you can make a nice profit or have yourself a nice collectors car.  The rear passenger panel by the wheel well is slightly damaged do to a tire blowout prior to getting new tires. There is a picture of this panel with the listing. The engine does have a bad head gasket which is not a hard fix and has never overheated. The brakes don't work the greatest due to the lack of vacuum from the bad head gasket. The center counsel is a custom setup that was built by the person that I had bought the vehicle from originally. I really don't want to sell the car but due to me buying a new vehicle for work commute I need to sell this car. I loved driving this car and hope whoever buys it has as much passion and fun driving it as I did. Good luck to all bidders and thank you for looking.

GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns

Sun, 05 Oct 2014

Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial

Sat, 16 Mar 2013


The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
