My son left for college and now I have a car that needs to move.  I got this car for my son 2 years ago and he only put about 7000 miles on it during that time.  I have replaced a lot of items to be sure it was safe for him to drive and look good. Below are some of the items that were replaced or added in the last 2 years.

2 complete sets of tires on Rims a total of 7000 miles on the 2 sets combined. Chrome for the summer, stock for the winter.

New Exhaust

Brakes

Headliner

Stereo

Tail light covers

 

Don't get me wrong, this is a 16 year old car with 160K miles on it. Overall the car looks good but the closer you get the more dings, scrapes and problems you see.  The paint shines, the T-Tops do not leak, the interior is clean. The car has a nice exhaust sound with the new dual exhaust.  Headlights go up and down without any problems. The airbag light is on, but it has been since we bought the car. There are no other lights or problems with the gauges.

The V6 engine runs well with no real problems that I am aware of.

The car does have A/C but it does not hold a charge for very long but with the T-tops my son did not think it was a problem.

Basically if you want a car that looks pretty good, runs well and is fun to drive all at a cheap price this is the car for you.

The accident listed in the history report last year was very minor. My son slid on a wet road into someones front yard.  The police would not let him move it because it was on the lawn so it had to be towed.  The nose got scraped up so we had it repainted.  Other then that there was no damage.

Bid to win. The opening bid amount is the reserve!

Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO

Mon, 24 Jun 2013

Here comes the Judge. Court is in session. The verdict is in. How many more tired clichés can we come up with? It hardly seems to matter, because it's happening: Trans Am Depot has announced via the teaser video below that it is launching a 2014 GTO, complete with Carousel Red (bright orange, really) paint and full Judge badging.
The car is based on Trans Am Depot's 6T9 Goat, which, in case you don't get the reverential references, is meant to mimic the look of the 1969 Pontiac GTO. As with the company's other cars -including the 2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am we recently drove - the GTO will be based on the current Chevy Camaro, which means two doors, V8 engines and rear-wheel drive, just like the muscle cars of days past.
As for actual details of what's under the 2014 GTO's hood, we're completely left hanging. We'd expect some sort of power adder (turbo, supercharger or possibly some other form of a highly massaged version of the Camaro's V8), and we certainly know that GM has any number of hi-po crate engines to choose from.

Wanted: 1967 Pontiac GTO for a special Father's Day

Thu, 07 Jun 2012

Jim Sharp of Elkhorn, Wisconsin needs a red 1967 Pontiac GTO to make his dad's Father's Day, possibly his last one, something extra special.
Back in the '60s, Jim's dad, Ken, drove a cherry red 1967 GTO to California for a job. He met a girl, got married and decided his wife's 1965 Ford Mustang was more fuel efficient than the Goat and the GTO was sold. As the story almost always goes, Ken has had seller's regret ever since.
Jim always meant to find a 1967 GTO and, with his dad's help, restore it. But life got in the way, time slipped by and Ken was recently diagnosed with esophageal cancer and given about three months to live.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
