ORIGINAL HARD TO FIND 455 FIREBIRD FORMULA WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND POSI. IT HAS AN ORIGINAL FIBERGLASS HOOD, I WAS TOLD FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER THAT IT HAS THE ORIGINAL ENGINE BUT NOT SURE. THE NUMBERS ON THE BLOCK ARE AS FOLLOWS: THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE BLOCK IS MARKED 036626 YW, BACK PASSENGER SIDE IS MARKED 485428. THE PASSENGER SIDE HEAD IS MARKED D093, DRIVERS SIDE HEAD IS MARKED D263. IT HAS A HOLLEY 4 BARREL DOUBLE PUMPER 3310 3 1341., EDELBROCK INTAKE AND A DEEP MOROSO OIL PAN. IT HAS A 10 BOLT POSI, NOT SURE OF GEARS. THE TIRES ARE IN GREAT SHAPE (SIZE 225/60/15). NEW TRIM RINGS, REPAINTED RALLY WHEELS TO THE CORRECT COLOR. THE ENGINE HAS HEADERS, HEI IGNITION. CAR HAS FRONT DISC BRAKES AND DUAL EXHAUST. THE UNDERSIDE OF THE CAR IS BASICALLY SOLID BUT A LITTLE SCALEY, 1 SMALL HOLE(SMALLER THAN A DIME) ON THE PASSENGER SIDE TRUNK FLOOR. THE EXTERIOR IS BURGUNDY AND THE PAINT HAS SCRATCHES AND FLAKING ON THE ENDURO NOSE (AS PICTURED). NO DAMAGE. THE INTERIOR IS BLACK IN COLOR, SOME PARTS WERE DYED. I BELIEVE THIS CAR WAS GOLD WITH A TAN INTERIOR(NOT 100% SURE). THIS CAR HAS HAD A RECENT TUNE-UP AND RUNS STRONG AND IS VERY FAST. OCCASIONALLY THE CAR WON'T START AFTER A LONG DRIVE, STARTER HEATS UP. THIS COULD BE SOLVED BY PUTTING IN A HEAT SHIELD OVER THE STARTER. THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN GONE THROUGH (NEW POWER BOOSTER), BRAKES ARE A LITTLE WEAK DUE TO THE LACK OF VACUUM CAUSED BY THE CAM. WOULD RECOMMEND A VACUUM CANISTER TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM, THERE ARE NO CRACKS IN THE GLASS, DOOR LOCK MECHANISMS NEED SOME WORK, OCCASIONALLY STICK. I BELEVE THE CAR HAD NEW REAR QUARTERS INSTALLED ONE TIME IN ITS LIFE. I TOOK A MAGNET TO EVERY BODY PANEL OF THE CAR AND IT STUCK TO ALL EXCEPT THE LOWER PART OF THE DRIVERS DOOR. ORIGINAL AM RADIO-DOES NOT PLAY, WINDSHIELD WASHERS DUE NOT WORK. THE FRONT SEATS HAVE SOME SPLITS ON THE BOTTOM SEAT CUSHIONS AND THE CONSOLE HAS SOME CRACKS. I DON'T WANT TO MAKE THIS CAR SOUND BAD BUT WANT TO MAKE THE BUYER AWARE OF ANY FLAS I KNOW OF. . DEFINATELY A FUN FAST CAR THAT WITH SOME FRESH PAINT AND TLC COULD BE A GREAT INVESTMENT. THIS IS A 40 YEAR OLD VEHICLE AND NOT PERFECT. THESE BIG BLOCK CARS ARE BECOMING MORE AND MORE RARER EVERYDAY. FEEL FREE TO ASK QUESTIONS AND GOOD LUCK!!

Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Here 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.
Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am
Wed, 15 May 2013When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
