I have wanted one of these cars since I was a little kid and saw "Smokey and the Bandit". This is not a trailer queen, it has a few chips here and there. My kids and I take it to car shows and drive it like it was meant to be. It will get sideways in a hurry but with all the suspension mods, it really hugs the road.

1979 Pontiac Trans Am Special Edition WS6 Y84 T-TOP

Original window sticker, wheels, and most other parts. Huge pile of receipts.......

I bought this car in an unrestored very good condition and restored it over the last 7 years with my kids. I have kept all the original parts. It has Global West and Hotchkis suspension parts, frame connectors, 3.42 posi rear, new gas tank, original seat covers and dash.

I had a 1969 428 4 bolt engine built by Butler Performance in TN (525HP / 550TQ) with all forged internals and mated to a TCI trans. We fixed all the rust in the t-tops, body, and undercarriage.

Hate to see this go but circumstances force sale. Let me know if you have any questions, I will be posting more and more as it comes to mind.

Custom Stereo: (I wanted a factory looking system, but one that would blow your doors off)

I mounted a dual Pioneer speaker under the front dash, two 6x9's in the rear using the original speaker covers, custom built a subwoofer so the T-Tops would still fit in the trunk. Used a Kicker 5 channel amp to push the whole thing. Keeping the factory radio (installed but not hooked up) really adds to the charm. Besides, who wants to cut the dash? That was one of the first things I looked for when I was buying it and would not do it because you can not get that originality back.

OTHER FEATURES:

Solid Body Mount Kit
Sub Frame Connectors
Nice thicker Leather steering wheel (Original wheel in perfect condition and stored)
Relay kit to fix smoking power window switch
Original Shaker for 403

PARTS ON ORIGINAL 403 ENGINE:

Pontiac #5 heads
Lunati Cam
Edelbrock Performer Intake

STILL TO DO:

Heater Core

ORIGINAL AND EXTRA PARTS:

Tons...

Thanks for taking the time to look at this, if this trans am is not what your looking for, I also have a restored #'s matching 1970 Challenger T/A 340 Six Pack, Sublime with Black Interior for sale. My two favorite cars.

NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll

Tue, 25 Feb 2014

588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
