This is my 1980 Turbo TransAm that I cannot finish. Been collecting parts for 10 years. Florida title in my name. I was trying to do my 3rd Silver TA. New wife said no more cars.
This car has a great solid body for a 33 year old car. Been in my garage for 12 years. Was a 301 Turbo with a A/T that ran. Now I have a 455 Pontiac engine and a 4 speed trans for it. All the machine work done at a race engine shop. Bored 60 over and all parts balanced. New parts are valves, springs, bearings, rings, oil pump, timming chain and gears, lifters, RamAir 3 cam, full gasket set, freeze plugs, pistons rods and rings, valve covers, air cleaner, water pump, motor mounts, 6X heads assembled with new valves, almost everything needed to assemble the engine. Flywheel has been balance. Used aluminum 4 barrel manifold, no carb. Used oil pan.
I have lots of new parts for the body, new lower GM grilles, front to rear SS brake line, front to tank fuel line, interior firewall padding. Boxes of used parts that have been cleaned and painted rally black for show. Car has tilt wheel, power windows that work, power locks, power trunck latch, factory air, cruise control, t-tops with bags.Bucket seats and rear seats that do not match colors. No radio, 4 speed center console, radiator, battery, no exhaust manifolds, rearend has no drums and no brakes. Front disc brakes work only.
The body is in great shape, fenders are great, quarter panels are very good, driver door needs a lower patch panel, passenger door needs a full skin. full left and right floors needed, trunk floor also. Frame rails are very good. All the glass is good. Need some minor patch around the t-top channels. Has all the ground effects and spoilers. New keys.I hope someone will give this car a good home and finish.

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.
GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes
Mon, 31 Mar 2014When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:
2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern
Mon, 07 Nov 2011General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.
