I've decided to let go of my firebird. I have a baby on the way and a new job that doesn't allow me to drive it as much as I'd like. I've babied it the whole time I've had it, always parked in the garage, and I never drive it in the rain. It's a fully optioned '97 Formula with the LT1 V8, 152k miles, automatic tranny with 21k miles on rebuild, shifts firm, leather seats, t-tops, '02 Trans Am honeycomb tail lights. It's all stock except for the full exhaust that I spent $1100 for a few months ago (sounds amazing). Runs and drives great, very reliable, lots of power. Maintenance always up to date. You can definitely tell that the car has been cared for.

List of new parts within the past six months (I have receipts for everything):
-New Pacesetter Long tube headers
-New Pacesetter offroad y-pipe w/o cats
-New Hooker Aerochamber cat-back kit
-New Energy Suspension Polyurethane motor mounts
-New coolant temp sensor
-New AC Delco spark plugs
-New EGR purge solenoid
-New battery
-New front O2 sensors
-New rear O2 sensor simulators


 The interior is in great shape for its age. Typical wear and tear that almost all these f-bodies have, tear in driver seat, headliner has a few small separations, crack on the dash. The driver side window motor is not working but I have a new one in the box that goes with the car which also has a lifetime warranty. AC has a leak and compressor makes a noise occasionally but blows cold when charged. Tires are in good shape and no curb rash on the wheels. Nose has light fading as most do although its nowhere near as bad as others. One small crack on passenger side of rear bumper. The door panels don't have any cracks like most others do. All in all, this is a very solid, nice driving, clean LT1 car that is ready for some cruises. Unfortunately I don't have any time for it and I'll be sad to see it go. I have much more into it than what I'm asking. Clean blue title in my name. If you have any questions or would like to see the car, please message me.

Celebrate the summer solstice by building the Pontiac Solstice shooting brake GM never did

Fri, Jun 21 2019

Happy summer solstice, everyone! To celebrate, we have a particularly unusual eBay find connected to the Pontiac Solstice sports car. A seller has leftover inventory of fiberglass hardtops designed to turn the Pontiac Solstice roadster into a shooting brake. The seller says they came from a since-closed Indiana company, and they're clearly inspired by another aftermarket part and even a GM concept that never saw the light of day. We'll start from the beginning: the stillborn Chevy Nomad concept. It was a concept that came out about the same time as the original Solstice concept, and it was clearly based on the same platform, featuring a small two-door body and a long nose. It also had unashamedly retro Nomad wagon design cues and cues from the original Corvette. The car never saw production, but clearly people were interested in having a wagon-like sports car. That brings us to the next bit of history with an aftermarket hardtop developed by German company EDAG. We saw a prototype in person, and the overall shape seemed to fit the car — and the wraparound window design certainly seemed Nomadic. Besides the unique look, the hardtop and its functional hatch made the Solstice roadster's miniscule cargo space far more usable. It doesn't appear many of the tops were sold, though. These tops on eBay look very similar to the EDAG tops, though it's not clear if they're a direct replica or something similar. Being that the parts are leftover inventory, the seller notes that some of the tops may be missing pieces for installation, so only those who are handy with bodywork and fasteners, or who are able to lean on someone who is, need apply. Even with some extra work, if you really want a Solstice shooting brake, this is likely easier and cheaper than commissioning a shop to custom-build a roof for your. If you're interested, check out the link. They're $499.99 apiece, and the seller will also provide a set of seals and gaskets for the top for an extra $125.

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.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
