Fairfax Station, Virginia, United States
|
1975 Pontiac Trans Am originally a 400/ 4 speed car, now it sports a 505 cubic inch supercharged Pontiac roller motor. The block was purchased directly from ALLPONTIAC.COM. A Paxton NOVI 2000 supercharger is currently making 12.7 pounds of boost which equates into 650 rear wheel horsepower and over 700 foot pounds of torque. The brackets for the supercharger are all CNC custom made. A March serpentine system runs power steering, alternator, water pump and A/C!! The transmission is a Tremec TKO 600 five speed. A custom made Strange Engineering Ford nine inch rear completes the drive train with 3.89 gears. A Hotchkiss Total Vehicle System, Hotchkiss sub frame connectors and Competition Engineering Slider Links makes up the suspension. The car sits 2 inches lower than stock. The front brakes are slotted rotors and the rears are 11 inch drums. A hydroboost system ensures stopping power. Aeromotive 3000 electric fuel pump with sump, all plumbed in stainless steel braided line. The interior is very stock looking and in original condition. A Quick Fuel air fuel computer is present to read real time percentages. Upon purchase, this car was sent to Farrish Pontiac where it was stripped and painted base/clear in the cars original color, Argent Silver. No rust at the time the car was painted nor does it have any now. Floors and trunk are all original and solid. All new weather stripping, new Trans Am decals which were supplied by Phoenix Graffix. Car is very original looking but is a race car underneath. The wheels are original honeycombs which have been restored with the original wheel paint. I had it custom made by 3M. The rear wheels are 15x9, they were sent to Weld Craft Wheels where they were widened 2 inches. Tires are sticky M&H Racemasters. This build is about 1500 miles old and has never seen the track. It has been covered in the garage and driven only to cars and coffee. This build was completed by George Reggio at Maryland Performance Center. |

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative
Tue, 29 Oct 2013How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?
GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes
Mon, 01 Oct 2012The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.
NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
