Up for auction is one 1996 Trans Am WS6 Firebird with approx 91k miles:

Car does not have current TX inspection/registration (Exp in Feb/13) as I bought a new vehicle and let it lapse, but I can assure it will pass (no emmisions/MIL issues).

Good:

  • Low Mileage (91k) WS6 Trans AM (badge delete), 2 Owners, Clear Blue TX title, and not abused
  • Ram Air hood/intake - original to car
  • Runs great, no issues with startup, idle, or highway driving - never raced, adult driven, no engine smoke, ready to drive
  • Freshly installed Racetronix/Walbro LT1 Fuel pump kit (old pump died, upgraded and added trap door access from trunk area)
  • 4 x New BFGoodrich Radial g-force Super Sport tires - 275/40ZR17 (98W) with only 8500 miles on them
  • 4 X American Racing Rims - great shape, no damage to lip, some light scuffs to finish from regular wear.  (Original 17" WS6 rims NOT included in auction)
  • Custom Stainless Oval exhaust tips
  • K&N Air Filter
  • Mobile 1 Oil Changes regularly in car
  • Full maintenance records on vehicle that I have provided in sale

Bad:

  • Both driver/passenger side Window Motors need to be replaced, drivers better than passenger - but can get stuck
  • Driver side power seat works, but is stuck in reverse - removed the relay so its currently in one position (easy fix, but I don't have time)
  • A/C line has leak - compressor works, however charge will be lost - part is approx $70, including costs to evacuate, charge/labor ~ est $300 to repair
  • Windshield wipers Park is not working, puts blades vertical if stopped - this is typical problem and requires a metal tab to be fixed or replacement of the mechanism
  • Front valence has paint/crack damage and visble crack on driver side fog light rim from impact (road debris) - ideally would need some glass patching/repaint
  • Coolant Overflow/Tank has leak - no problems with radiator, only the tank seems to have leak - replacement availalble online ~ est $60 for part to repair
  • Some small chips on hood/valence from highway rocks/pebbles - typical for a car of this age (see pictures)
  • Paint does have typical spider marks on front nose fascia and right/left rear bumper area - not noticable at distance.
  • Few small dings on car, again typical for car of this age

Sale:

Car is sold as-is with no implied warranty, I can deliver the vehicle within 50 miles of downtown Houston, TX unless otherwise negotiated prior to auction end.

I tried to list all know issues with the car, giving you a complete disclosure to the best of my knowledge.

I am a reliable seller, have sold several cars on ebay/craigslist and looking only to complete a transaction with 100% positive feedback - so please contact/message me if you have any questions/concerns prior to bidding.

If car does not sell, I will most likely fix items above and relist at higher price, looking to sell it as-is first and the price reflects that.  I also reserve the right to terminate the auction early if local sale is made first.

Payment:

Paypal ($500 deposit required within 48hrs), Cash (in person required, no mail/checks), or Wire Transfer only (you MUST speak with me before auction close for wire instructions), again NO personal checks or money order.

Jay Leno tries out a 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge that looks factory fresh

Tue, Jan 31 2017

The latest machine to show up on Jay Leno's Garage is arguably the most iconic Pontiac GTO, the 1970 Judge. The example here is a radically red model and features all of the nifty Judge features, such as the mega-size rear wing, hood-mounted tachometer, and ram air hood scoop. The latter of which had a panel in the hood that would open up at full throttle to let in all that cool air from outside. The car is owned by the Wade Kawasaki, president of Coker Tires, a company that specializes in reproducing classic tires. Not surprisingly, his GTO features a set of the company's Firestone Wide Oval tires. That particular tire would have come with the car originally, but these new versions are built like modern radial tires, rather than the slippery bias-ply originals. The tires are indicative of how Kawasaki restored the rest of his Judge. Everything has been taken back to factory-spec. It has a stock, 400-cubic inch V8 that makes a supposedly underrated 366 horsepower, and it's complete with the chrome valve covers and foam intake seal. The tires are accompanied by exact replica GTO Judge wheels. The car even has the true, original interior. Somehow, the upholstery, dash, and other interior components survived in excellent condition. Check out the video above for more details on this flashy muscle car, as well as some reminiscing about the "good ol' days," and some history on the origins of the car's name. Related Video:

GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes

Mon, 01 Oct 2012

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
