Up for auction is my 97 Trans am convertible. There were less than 1,000 convertibles built in 1997 so these cars are getting rare and hard to find. I'm trying to make room in my shop and just don't drive the car that much anymore. The body is in good condition there are several small dings and chips but still vary good for it's age .Paint is fair. The top is the original so it is showing some age but does not leak and no tears. DON'T let the rebuilt title run you off. This car had a dent in the right quarter panel , broken tail light , small tears in front and rear bumper covers. Bumper covers were replaced with GM covers. Frame was professionally checked and found to have no damage. I had a aftermarket ram-air hood put on ( looks better than stock hood ) . Car report shows no flood damage, was not stolen and recovered and no serious damage. Interior is normal for a car with 103,000 miles leather seats are good, door panels good, rear panels have some scratches. Factory radio was replaced with a Pioneer that is IPod compatible. There is a 10 disc Sony cd player in trunk works ok but is an older unit. Trans Am graphics are from auto graphics and are reflective. The LT1 350 runs good and strong oil pressure is good no knocks or ticks no smoking out the tail pipes. There is a small oil leak from the valve covers from sitting so much the last couple years. Battery was replaced this spring with a HD Dura last from auto zone. Transmission shifts good with no slipping. Tires are the fusion ZRI and are in good shape 50-70% life left in them. Car does not have or come with warranty and is sold as is. Buyer is responsible for shipping.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As 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.
Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way
Tue, 21 Feb 2012There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.
Sci-fi movie Jinn features car designer, Firebird-bodied Camaro
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you're an automotive engineer being tormented by an immortal being made of fire, then wouldn't you think it best to have a custom coupe called the FireBreather for your getaway car? That's the FireBreather in the image above, adorned by the red wings that once fronted the Pontiac Firebird, running away from a black cloud of evil in a trailer for the movie Jinn.
The Jinn is eternal evil, always waiting for the chance to make things float across rooms before going on homicidal urban rampages. The FireBreather is a Gen-V Chevrolet Camaro - from the V6 to the ZL1 - that's been through Classic Design Concepts' extensive list of exterior and interior modifications, including entirely new front and rear fascias and side skirts, sway bars and springs, Pirelli P Zeroes and an available Edelbrock supercharger.
The movie - FireBreathing chase scenes and all - was shot in Monroe, Michigan. You can watch the trailer below, but since the FireBreather only get a couple of seconds on screen, you can find out more about it on Street Legal TV and its official site.
