1979 Black on Black 403 Automatic Cloth Hard Top Asking $27,500 OBO All Reasonable Offers Considered Mileage as of this date is original 24,403 Kilometers ( 15,130 miles ) Yes. A very nice, very gorgeous low mile 1979 Trans Am. This car was built in Norwood, Ohio and sent to Canada when new. What is the difference between a Canada and US Trans Am in 1979? The Speedometer and Odometer are calibrated in KM per hour rather than MILES per hour. There are MILES per hour though on the Speedometer. You can change this quite easily if you wanted to but I would leave it. You can tell how fast you are going on the speedometer in miles per hour on the gauge as well so you are not going to be getting any speeding tickets. Yes. All of my cars are numbers matching with original drive trains. Including this one. Purchased from the original owner. Heather Skippen of nearby London, Ontario. Heather bought this fine car brand new from the originating GM dealer ( Huron Motor Products of Zurich Ontario ) back in the spring of 1979. The original build sheet and GM Historical docs are in another file here on the www.birdbunker.com website. Super clean car. Well cared for. The 1979 paint was kind of crappy and just too tired to save. What is it with this 79 paint? Must have been the worst year GM had for paint? Anyhow, the big orange and red bird was cracked when acquired. In that state, the appearance was a major distraction to the car. It was the state of the big orange and red bird that required a hood repaint to attach a new bird. Just the like the hood repaint on the 1976 White car I have, there is no way then to match the rest of the car. Impossible. So, the car had to be painted entirely for it to look proper. You know when it is time to leave a car alone and you know when it is the right time to paint a car. This car was better off painted. The decision was made to repaint the car and reapply the original correct decals etc. and that was a smart move. The new paint and new decals on this car are simply amazing. The quality of the deep, rich black paint job like the other painted cars in the birdbunker is simply amongst the very best paint jobs there are. The black, the orange \ red decals and the bright argent snowflake wheels gets a ton of attention when moving around town. Gorgeous looking car. This car originally came with Rally II’s but was changed to the Silver Snowflakes for bling appeal. You could always go back to Rally II’s if you wanted to. The argent silver snow flake wheels look simply fantastic and they are correct for 1979 Trans Am wheel options.
What is nicest about this car is that it drives, smells, looks, handles, and sounds just like it should in 1979 with about 16,000 miles on it. This car needs nothing other than to be cleaned, loved and driven. It is that nice..... A strong running car that looks great and will go anywhere. Like a trip back in time. Yes. I know that this car is a 403 Olds and not the 400 Pontiac. Yes. I know that your 400 4-Speed car is worth more money. Many people tell me so. So what do you get when you buy this car? a.) you get a complete numbers matching, low mile 1979 Black on Black Trans Am painted back to original factory colour and decals. b.) You get a car with not just a nice new paint job... you get a car with an astounding paint job and decals professionally applied. c.) You get fairly new rubber plus 4 perfectly done snowflake rims, plus the correct Stainless caps and snowflake lug nuts. Not the cheap plastic ones that went on the 79 10th Anniversary that year. Contact Information Call or email me ( John Shaw ) about the cars. Do not call Tom please. Tom can assist you in seeing the cars since he is always there. I will discuss price and any other information that you want to know about the cars. Thank you John ----------------------------------------- John Shaw ...............

Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally
Fri, 13 Jun 2014The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.
This Auto Aerobics car art ties our brains in knots like pretzels
Sat, 14 Dec 2013We like cars, and we like art. Naturally, Chris Labrooy's Auto Aerobics series - computer-generated images of some seriously contorted 1968 Pontiac Bonnevilles floating in mid-air - instantly clicked with us. If the Pontiacs weren't floating or hollow, we could be fooled into believing the image is real. But where's the fun in that?
Check out the gallery we included of Labrooy's Bonneville art, and feel free too head over to his website for some Formula One humor.
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.
