1981 Pontiac Trans Am This is a nice looking good running Black 1981 Pontiac Trans Am, v8 301 with great oil pressure with an automatic transmission. The car is not a leaker or smoker. This is an original California car that runs and shifts good. It just passed california smog check vehicle inspection and is currently registered. The carburetor was just rebuilt with a lifetime warranty. This Trans Am is an attention getter and would look great with the decal kit. The paint job is decent but there are some spots where the old decals looks like not all the adhesive got removed. Car always starts right up and sounds good. The wiring has not been all hacked or cut up. All the flairs are in great condition, it does need the lower plastic grills in the front bumper. The interior is in pretty good condition for being all original but could use a carpet. I think you could drive this car anywhere but could use new tires first. The car could use a tune up but still runs fine. All the glass is in good condition and windows go up and down smooth. All gauges work even the clock and the doors do not sag, they shut nice as does the hood and trunk. The floor boards and trunk are solid, there was some surface rust but it was cleaned and treated and dont ask me how but there is rust on the back underside of the trunk lid, you cant see it unless the trunk is open and you look under the trunk lid below the spoiler. This is a great Trans Am if you want a sharp daily driver that you can also take to your local car show but it is not a show car. I have described this as well to my knowledge, I will put new carpet in it for the buy it now price. please ask all questions before buying. You are more than welcome to see the car before bidding. Car is sold as is and is for sale locally. |

1969 Pontiac GTO Judge vs. 2006 GTO, which Goat gets your vote?
Mon, 08 Sep 2014The Pontiac GTO was perhaps the most iconic muscle car of the '60s and early '70s. With its beefy V8 and color palette screaming for attention, it summarized in a single vehicle everything that made the era so appealing to many young people. Pontiac tried to collect just a few drops of that aura again in the 2000s with a revived GTO, but with decidedly mixed results. The performance was still there with its big V8, but the looks never quite lived up to the powertrain. Now, Generation Gap wants to know which of these Goats is the one to own.
Things are skewed immediately because the 2006 GTO here is a real ringer. It comes from famous tuner Ken Lingenfelter's collection, and it's a one-off example partially fettled by GM Performance boasting a twin-turbocharged LS2 V8 with a claimed 750 horsepower and a wide-body kit. This Goat definitely isn't what you're going to find just browsing for one to buy in the newspaper. Still, dip the throttle just a little, and this GTO pulls like a freight train. It's enough to turn the two hosts into giggling schoolboys behind the wheel.
The '69 GTO Judge here is also out of Lingenfelter's collection, but this one is all stock with a 400-cubic-inch (6.6-liter) V8 and a Ram Air hood for a claimed 366 hp. It might not have the unbelievable power of the turbo '06, but it makes up for it with style to spare.
Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am
Wed, 15 May 2013When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
