Hello, I purchased this 5 years ago from one of two brothers that have owned it. It has always been garage kept. It had 94,800 miles when I purchased it.The body was redone at Bill Defouw Chevrolet in Layfayette, IN in the end of 2009.This included putting on a new fiberglass front end to replace the urethane one that came on them. Also a new windshield was put in at this time.
below is a list of things that were done between 9/01/09 and 3 /1/10. Transmission was rebuilt, including a rebuilt torque converter. Engine was rebuilt, completely stock, including boring .030 over, and replacing 8 valve guides, and resurfacing the heads on the exhaust manifold sides. Also a custom made 2 piece viton rear main seal was installed. Luster Glaze sealed the paint. New HEI distributor. Still have the original. New carburator. Still have the original. New Spark plug wires. New Water pump. New fuel pump. Rebuilt power steering pump. New belts. New hoses. New heater relay. New rearview mirror. New radio/ CD player. New upper control arm bushings. New front brake pads. Repacked front bearings. Rebuilt calipers. Rebuilt master cylinder. New rear air shocks. New wiper blades. New flowmaster mufflers. The rear wheel cylinders, brake shoes, starter, alternator, dual exhaust were all recently replaced, therfore I did not replace those. On 5/15/2011 I paid $ 1,031.79 to have the air conditioning system flushed out, a new compressor, and receiver dryer installed, and set up for R134. I have new after market replacement quarter panels, used doors, used front fenders, used tail lights, and several boxes of used spare parts that will go with it. This is a very nice car. If you have a question though please ask. These are hard to find at all let alone in good condition. This does have the factory posi rear end and factory rear defogger.

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.
General Lee takes on Bandit T/A in classic Hollywood car showdown [w/poll]
Fri, 26 Aug 2011You don't have to be born in the 1960s or 1970s to be able to recognize the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard and the Pontiac Trans Am from Smokey and the Bandit. These old school four-wheeled stars seem to transcend demographics thanks to the miles of film that show the orange 1969 Dodge Charger and the jet-black 1977 Pontiac Trans Am performing seemingly impossible stunts.
The folks at Hot Rod magazine are obviously hip to this fact, and they put together a fun video in tribute of the instantly recognizable duo. Hit the jump to watch on as Sam Young and James Smith replace Bo Duke and The Bandit for a bit of dirt-road shenanigans in a pair of otherwise well cared for classics. We're not so sure we'd call it the best chase scene ever, but it sure looks like a lot of fun.
More importantly, which of these two cars would you rather own? Have your say in our poll below.
Aficionauto sits down with The Hoff and KITT
Fri, 10 Oct 2014The latest video from The Aficionauto is the perfect palate cleanser for Knight Rider fans after finding out that Justin Bieber is the voice of KITT in an upcoming film. Host Christopher Rutkowski says that the Knight Industries Two Thousand is one of the most requested vehicles to appear on the series and for good reason - Michael Knight's Pontiac Trans-Am is among the most famous cars to ever appear on television.
While the video isn't able to showcase one of the original KITTs from the series, it does get star David Hasselhoff to drive his personal replica and talk about the lasting legacy of the show. The highlight here might be seeing The Hoff back behind the wheel in the open desert basically recreating Knight Rider's opening sequence.
With all of its flashing lights and gizmos, you can probably make the argument that KITT is pretty cheesy, and the show itself was never exactly a pillar of high-quality drama on television. Despite that, the series still provides a ton of good-natured fun, and The Hoff's continued enthusiasm for it is pretty infectious. Check out The Aficionauto video to take another ride with Knight Rider.
