Encino, California, United States
|
This is a completely custom 1984 Pontiac Trans Am. It has a 1977 Chevy 350 (corvette motor) freshly rebuilt (less than 1000 miles), 4 bolt main, steel crank, 7 qt oil pan, new oil pump, mild cam, roller rockers, new water pump, new power steering pump, new fuel pump, all new gaskets, belts and hoses, new edelbrock intake, edelbrock 650 carb, new power steering box (close ratio), new spark plugs and wires, new shocks, new struts, 4 wheel disc brakes, hooker headers (long tube), new 3 inch flow master cutback exhaust, new 18 inch BOSS staggered wheels, new Hankook tires, new carpet, new headliner, new shift boot, new T-Top weatherstripping.
It has a Tremec 5 Speed with hurst shifter and a 9" rear end. (not sure what gears). New differential gasket. Seats are original in good condition. Gauges all work. Speedometer has new gears, but due to wheel package is almost 10mph off. (If you're going 50, it says you're going 60). Now... here's what it needs: PAINT and BODY (the car looks fine from 5 feet away... but not great up close. There are many imperfections.) Also... it could use new bushings in the suspension (all the way around). It needs door jam brush/weatherstripping. NOTE: The paint on the car looks waaaay better in these pictures than it does in person. The car photographs well after being detailed... but the paint is not good... and the decals are very faded now. BIG NOTE... If you live in CA, I will have the car smogged for you which will last 2 years... however, it will not pass smog after. Everywhere else... the car will be fine considering it is over 25 years old and considered a classic. Please email me with any questions you may have. |

GM recalling 778,000 Cobalts and G5s, six deaths reported
Thu, 13 Feb 2014General Motors has announced that it will be recalling 778,562 compact cars after six people were killed in accidents, partially due to the airbags' failure to deploy. An issue with the ignition switch is causing the airbag issues, as well as causing the engine and other components to shut off without warning. The recall covers the 2005 to 2007 model year Chevrolet Cobalt and 2007 Pontiac G5. (Note that the Cobalt pictured above is a 2009 model.)
According to a report from Automotive News, a number of factors can cause the ignition to switch out of the run position, including weights on the key ring, rough or bumpy roads or other "jarring" events. Any of these situations could lead to some vehicle components not functioning properly.
There have been five fatal front-impact crashes that took the lives of six people, although as a GM spokesman noted, all five of the crashes happened off road and at high speed. In each of these cases, though, the lack of airbags wasn't the only lethal factor - alcohol and failure to wear a seat belt also played a role. Outside of the fatal accidents, there have been 17 other crashes where airbags didn't deploy. It's unclear if any of these crashes were caused by the engine shutting off.
STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM
Fri, 16 Oct 2009Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
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?
