Gillespie, Illinois, United States
Please email me with any questions or requests for additional pics or something specific at: lonnie.lovaglio@vfemail.net .
This car is completely stock, with the exception of the 19” VMR rims, Bridgestone pole
position S04 summer tires, and upgraded brakes I bought and added to car. The rims/tires were $2000 (I have
receipt) and I have the original rims. It still drives comfortably and there's excellent grip on the street. The
only other change I made were the brakes, I put slotted and cross drilled rotors with carbon fiber/ceramic brake
pads on the car. It had okay braking before, now it stops very quickly. I have title in hand with NO liens.

· Mobil One Fully synthetic 5W-30 (since bought $69.98, $48.64, $66.33, $59.32)

· Good year Gatorback serpentine belts (the best), 2 on this car, one for AC

pads $249.97 (plus labor to install, another $178.89)

Emissions Test passed -required in Illinois, good until 9/17
The transmission was replaced with a brand new (not rebuilt!) one at 6,000 miles (2nd gear syncro defect) at Gary
Lang Auto, so it truly only has 33,700 miles. I’ve changed the oil every 1000-2000 miles with only Mobil One
fully synthetic. A couple months ago I put in 15,000 mile Mobil One Fully Synthetic, it has about 500 miles on it.
The A/C runs perfect, car shifts great, clutch works perfectly, and the engine runs excellent. Exhaust is in
great condition. The bottom side of this car looks great. The interior looks brand new. The trunk is in perfect
condition, and under the hood this car looks great. The spare tire (yes full-size spare), Jack, lug wrench are
still in-tact. The new wheels/tires are still in perfect condition with about 500 miles on them. The previous
owner kept it in a garage year-round and drove it 3k miles a year in the summer. This car has been well kept.
I’ve owned it for around 2 years and put 3k miles a year on it. For the past year I’ve only drive it on sunny
summer days on the weekend. When I first bought it, I had to drive it one month in the snow, which of course, I
washed it daily if there was snow on the ground; I had an indoor heated garage with car wash bay, so I could clean
under the wheel wells and power wash the underside. I assure you, no salt/snow has damaged this cars integrity in
the month it was driven in February ‘14. Since I’ve owned it, I stored inside the center of a concrete garage
with the car cover on it, so it never sees dust, let alone the outdoor elements.
This is an adult driven car, the only reason I’m selling this car is my new job doesn’t require I travel
anywhere, so it’s only getting 15 miles a month on it in the spring/summer/fall. It’s waste to just store the
car, this car is in top notch condition and ready to drive cross country or anywhere else for that matter.
Extra things included with car:
-Brand new OEM fob and cut-key, just needs to be coded (you can do it w/o taking it to dealership)
-OEM Wheels with snow tires and new valve stems, balanced with stick on weights - $700 (valve stems and balance
another $132) for snow tires with 70% tread left -Dunlop Wintermaxx XL

Junkyard Gem: 1991 Pontiac 6000 LE
Sat, Dec 2 2017Sibling to the Chevrolet Celebrity and Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, the Pontiac 6000 sold pretty well during the early-to-middle 1980s, but had been relegated to the dealership bargain bin and fleet-car cul-de-sac by the time of Operation Desert Shield. Here's a final-year-of-manufacture 6000 LE that I photographed in an Arizona self-service wrecking yard. This car was sold new in Arizona, and it will be crushed in the same state, 26 years later. The LE was the cheapest trim level for the 6000 in 1991, but the original purchaser of this car sprang for a few options. For example, instead of the utterly miserable 2.5-liter Iron Duke four-cylinder, this car packs the 3.1-liter V6. That meant 140 horsepower instead of 110, plus an engine note more like a vacuum cleaner sucking up a spaghetti spill than an ailing blender chewing on walnuts. AM, FM, and cassette. Not only that, but the auto-reverse feature meant that your mixtape cassette wouldn't stop right in the middle of your favorite Roxette tune. This content is hosted by a third party.

Even the wretched Daewoo-built Pontiac LeMans gets more screen time than the forgotten 6000 in this 1991 TV ad featuring the voice of Captain Picard.

Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series
Mon, 10 Mar 2014NASCAR driver Tony Stewart is making good use of his nickname Smoke in new videos inspired by the 1970s classic Smokey and the Bandit. The original is one of the quintessential automotive movies of its era with a fantastic combination of slapstick comedy and great car stunts in a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. If you've never seen it, check it out immediately.
In the new six-part Smoke IS the Bandit web series, Stewart takes on the role of Burt Reynolds' famous character complete with huge mustache. But instead of trying to smuggle cases of Coors beer it's Mobil 1 oil. The series promises to recreate many of the famous scenes from the movie and includes cameos from other NASCAR drivers.
To complete the look, future videos just need a quality replacement for a young Sally Field to ride shotgun. It would also be really cool if Reynolds could make a brief appearance at some point. Scroll down to check out the trailer and the first episode in the series.
GM Design shows what could have been and what might be
Thu, May 27 2021We periodically like to check in with GM Design's Instagram account to see what they're cooking up. Even better is when we catch a glimpse of an alternate history of what legendary designers from The General's past were thinking, though those ideas may not have made it into production. This week, for example, the account posted some illustrations from George Camp, whose career at GM spanned nearly four decades, from 1963 to 2001. One of the renderings is of what appears to be a 1971-72 Pontiac GTO Judge, but with two headlights instead of the production unit's quad beams. The rear departs from the canonical version most dramatically, with a massive integrated wing. Other bits that didn't make the production cut include large side vents, a gill-like side marker and rectangular intakes below the headlights that wouldn't be out of place on a modern design today. Amazingly, from what we can make out of the date, it appears that the drawing was done sometime in 1965, which makes it quite prescient.      View this post on Instagram            A post shared by GM Design (@generalmotorsdesign) There's also a very aerodynamic interpretation of a Corvette ZR-1. To our eyes it splits the difference between the 1986 Corvette Indy concept and a fourth-generation F-body Pontiac Firebird, so perhaps parts of Camp's work on this sketch did make it into physical form. There's also a radical sports car concept from May 1970 that resembles the Mazda RX-500 concept from the same year, a Syd Mead-looking Cadillac coupe, and an Oldsmobile with a cool take on the company's trademark waterfall grille and elements of the Colonnade Cutlass at the rear. Other recent posts include a FJ Cruiser-like off-road EV, a sleek coupe with the Chevy corporate grille, and a rendering of a Silverado-esque pickup that looks far better than the current production version.      View this post on Instagram            A post shared by GM Design (@generalmotorsdesign) It's pretty easy to lose hours in the account, but it's always fascinating to see GM's visions of what could have been and what might be.
