1989 Pontiac Firebird 


This car used to belong to my stepfather before he passed.. When I got it the engine had a loud knock in it so I replaced the engine with a brand new crate motor from napa. I also replaced much of the suspension, seals, headliner 4th generation seats, brakes and tires. I also put a VR3 Sound system with a 10' Sub in the back and new speakers all around (see pictures) Every spring a local mechanic has gone over it and replaced anything from wires that were fraying to new battery terminals and any other minor repairs making sure it was in tip top shape for the summer.

This is an older used car so it will be sold as is, However, The car runs and drives great. A Solid car. There are a few signs of rust and a small ding near the front of the car (see pictures), the T-tops leak if it's hit with high pressure from say a car wash pressure washer , Rain and handwashing does not seem affect it. There are cracks in the paint near the hood scoops, A friend of mine molded them in and it didn't work out so well, I've thought about wrapping it in car vinyl.

I highly encourage you to come see the car if you're interested. It's too hard to describe with words.

This car is a bit of a special car as in it's a Pro-Am. There is not a whole lot of info on these pro-ams but from what i've been able to piece together: Pro-ams were a factory deal with a specific dealer in Ohio and Chattanooga cutsoms (now Choo-Choo Customs) some minor body alterations were done to a formula model firebird, such as, the two tone paint job, The spoiler, The nose is of the newer 90s Model and there is faux woodwork in the interior. There may be a few other alterations that i'm not aware of. My buddy swears there is a shift kit in it but I don't believe they did anything mechanical.  

My reasons for listing this are pretty simple.. My wife and I are moving to a college town soon where we'll be finishing up our education and start a family. As such taking along a 3rd car that gets used in the summer only is going to be a hassle. Right now I keep it parked next door in the American Legion parking lot and store it either at the inlaws or one of my parents in the winter. This car has been a lot of fun and I will miss it very much, but the time has come to let her go.

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll

Tue, 25 Feb 2014



588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.

BMX rider flips for wrecked Detroit football stadium

Fri, Jun 12 2015

Detroit is littered with derelict ruins. Abandoned automotive assembly plants, sure – but also former sports venues, like Tiger Stadium in Corktown, Roesink Stadium in Hamtramck, and the Silverdome in Pontiac. BMX rider Tyler Fernengel remembers going to see the Lions and Pistons play at the Silverdome in his youth, and competed there in Supercross as a boy. The stadium hasn't been used in years, but now, with his career just picking up, Tyler has returned to film this video – riding through its halls, jumping its stairwells and flipping over its grandstands and field. It's a fitting tribute to a once-great venue of suburban Michigan. Check out the footage in this latest clip from Red Bull.

David Hasselhoff's own KITT replica up for auction

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

Depending on when and where you grew up, the name David Hasselhoff likely conjures up images of Knight Rider, Baywatch, pop singer, or possibly a washed-up TV actor, but one thing that can never be taken away from The Hoff is his connection to one of the greatest automotive icons in pop culture. The Knight Industries Two Thousand, usually shortened to simply KITT, was the real star of Knight Rider for many fans. Based on a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, the car combined snarky quips for comedy relief and stunts to provide much of the show's actions. Now, Julien's Auctions is selling Hasselhoff's own replica as part of a larger sale of the actor's personal memorabilia collection.
This recreation is based on a 1986 Firebird and comes with all of the tech on the inside that now seems hilariously outdated, like the yoke steering wheel and plethora of buttons. The interior also thoughtfully includes a voice box with over 4,000 sound clips from the show. With a 5.0-liter V8 and an automatic transmission, performance is likely adequate and period correct. According to the listing, this car was created by fans and given to the Hoff. Sadly, the replica doesn't convert to Super Pursuit Mode like KITT could in later seasons, and we most associate KITT with conventional front-hinged doors to go with the power t-tops and ejector seats.
Bidding currently sits $27,500 with eight bids, since starting at $15,000. Julien's predicts it will sell for between $30,000 and $50,000. If there is some nostalgia for KITT in your heart, there is still plenty of time to bid.
