The car was originally a V6 firebird. The donor car was a 99 formula that i had owned since 2007. The conversion was done in April 2013. I bought it from the original owner. The undercarriage has zero rust. I'm selling it because of the common situation of having kids and not having time for the car anymore.
Engine: The longblock is an 01/02 LQ4 6.0L with approximately 30k miles on it. The heads and intake are from a 2010 camaro with .040" Cometic head gaskets and ARP head bolts. The cam is a Comp 226/230 .598.600 114LSA with Patriot dual springs, FAST 39# injectors, LS2 timing chain, Melling high pressure oil pump, aftermarket lid with K&N filter(comes with spare filter), Comtech 90mm TB, LS2 MAF, Pacesetter long tube headers, 3" X-pipe with V-bands, dynomax bullets in the middle, tail pipes under the axle, Magnaflowish 4x9x14 mufflers and Borla 4.5" single tips. Cruise control module is included but needs to be wired up due to differences in wiring harness. Comes with LC-1 wideband O2 sensor setup(not installed). The car isn't bad on the street, but it definitely needs to be tuned to maximize power and efficiency. It also has a brand new oil pan gasket. Transmission/Rear-end: junk yard 4L60e with unknown mileage, huge B&M cooler, custom TCI 3200 stall(tight on the street, but gets into the power band when needed), corvette servo, poly trans mount, steel drive shaft, Auburn posi, 3.23's. Chassis/Suspension: Eibach Prokit, BMR front sway bar, BMR strut tower brace, BMR welded subframe connectors, BMR chromoly rear control arms, BMR adjustable panhard bar, poly lower control arm bushings, The rear airbags have the valve stems run through the bottom license plate holes. The rear sway bar is included but wont fit with current exhaust setup. The rack&pinion has a brand new seal kit in it. The front hub assemblies are fairly new. The tires are falken 275/40/17's with about 30% tread left. Interior/Electronics: The gauge cluster from the donor car has 150k miles, but the body itself actually has closer to 170k miles. The upper dash panel is brand new. I kept the cloth seats, because they're more comfortable than leather during Texas summers, and the driver's seat also has angle adjustment. I deleted the ash tray, but it needs to be repainted again due to the filler shrinking. The deck is a JVC with an external input for iPods, etc. The factory speakers are still in the car, but i'm including the Boston Acoustics 6.5's i had in the old car. The subwoofer is a powered Bazooka 10", which is run with RCA cables and has a volume knob on the side of the center console. The headliner has a couple of tears in it from when i fit an assembled bowflex inside the car with the hatch closed. The passenger visor was missing when i got the car, and it never bothered me. The console lid needs to be replaced or re-glued. The passenger T-top/door seal needs to be replaced, because it leaks during really bad rain storms. The antenna has been removed, because the gear was stripped, and i never used the radio anyway. The door panels have the typical cracks on the top. Body/Exterior: The car is in over-all excellent cosmetic condition for its age. It comes with the front filler panel with the bird on it, but the license plate is still underneath. the front bumper has a few touch-up spots. the quarter panels have a few dings and scratches. the paint on the side moldings is starting to fade... i would just remove them if i were keeping the car. the passenger taillamp has a hairline crack, but it has no moisture in it. The wheels are factory 01/02 WS6 speedline wheels. Anti-theft/Keyless entry: The body control module, airbag inflator module and ignition key pellet were transferred from the donor car as well. This means there are no malfunction indicator lamps illuminated on the dash, because all the modules are still synced with each other. It also allows the vehicle anti-theft system(VATS), keyless entry, and factory alarm from the donor car to be fully functional. HVAC: The A/C compressor, orifice tube, and accumulator are all brand new. So the A/C is very cold. The heater also works very well. In my opinion, these are both absolute necessities for a daily driver in South Texas. On Dec-16-13 at 09:18:11 PST, seller added the following information: The car was originally a V6 firebird. The

1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction
Mon, 01 Aug 2011For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.
A pair of Mitsubishis, the Mazda CX-30 and electric incentives | Autoblog Podcast #673
Fri, Apr 9 2021This week's Autoblog Podcast features Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore and Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski as they debate the merits of the redesigned Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 coupes and whether or not they are distinctive and powerful enough to attract buyers. The duo spends some time discussing ongoing EV and infrastructure legislation before turning their attention to a trio of crossovers. Greg muses about the 2021 Mazda CX-30 before Jeremy talks about the refreshed 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross and completely redesigned Outlander. We get nostalgic as we remember the dearly departed Pontiac GTO before wrapping the podcast up by making one more suggestion to a longtime listener who is shopping for a vehicle to replace her aging Honda Pilot.

Junkyard Gem: 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP
Tue, Jun 19 2018For General Motors, the W platform just kept giving and giving and giving for decade after decade, serving as the basis of Buick Regals, Oldsmobile Intrigues, Chevrolet Monte Carlos, and many, many more models. The final and most powerful Pontiac W-Body, the sixth-generation Grand Prix GTP, rolled off assembly lines for the 1997 through 2003 model years. Here's one in a Northern California self-service wrecking yard. GM bolted the supercharged 3800 V6 into vast numbers of cars during this era, providing a deep reservoir of cheap blowers for unwise high-boost projects. 240 front-tire-charring horses, complete with a Roots-type blower scream from the Eaton supercharger under the hood. I see plenty of blown 3800s during my junkyard travels, from the Bonneville SSEi to the Oldsmobile LSS. Depressingly, GM stopped putting manual transmissions in the Grand Prix during the 1993 model year, so '01 GTP owners had to take the four-speed slushbox. This one came close to the magic 200,000-mile mark, but fell 25,000 short. The interior took a beating during its life, ending its time on the road with shredded upholstery and dirty panels. Seven-band graphic equalizers were all the rage during the 1980s, but GM kept the tradition alive into our current century. This content is hosted by a third party.
