2002 Red Pontiac Firebird Convertible on 2040-cars
Wills Point, Texas, United States
LOCAL PICK UP ONLY!
I bought this car in June 2011 and have only put 15k on it. I'm selling it because my husband is stationed in WA, and to be honest, it was a poor choice for such a cold/rainy climate. Body is in great condition other than a couple of very small dings from other people's car doors. Some small scuffs in the paint, pretty positive it can all be buffed out. Interior is in good condition, no rips or tears. Small scratches in the plastic here and there. Engine and transmission run great. Cold A/C, hot heat. Top works, I even have a plastic cover for it for when it's down. And a big one, there's no crack in the dash!!! Just inspected this month and good for a year. Yes the title is rebuilt, (THIS IS STILL A BLUE TITLE) but I have not had any issues with the car that are at all related to that. I bought the car from a licensed mechanic and I even have the paper that shows what needed to be replaced. There is nothing wrong with the frame as I have never had any issues with alignment, brakes, drive train... etc. I also have had no problem insuring this car. I'm still driving the car until I sell it so the actual mileage a little more or a little less than stated. The odometer just rolled over to 134K. Water pump replaced in June 2011 Bypass lines replaced June 2011 2 new tires Aug/Sept 2011 Radiator replaced in Feb of 2012 Weather seals replaced 2012 Starter replaced March 2012 Power steering line replaced Oct 2013 2 new tires Feb/March 2014 Heater core replaced April 2014 Thermostat replaced May 2014 EGR valve replaced May 2014 I do still have some of the receipts for the work done. Thanks for looking! Feel free to message me if you'd like more info or pics. |

NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys
Mon, 10 Jun 2013According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.
This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod
Fri, 21 Feb 2014There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.
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.
