I'm selling this car on behalf of my nephew.  He bought this car, we did a little work on it, including four brand new tires, but it proved to be a little too high performance for a daily driver.  This car has absolutely no rust whatsoever!  It is as solid as the day it was built.  I relocated some brake lines to get them away from the headers and even the factory spring wrapped around the brake lines moved free.  In fact, I removed the wrap from the old lines and put them on the new lines so I could make the tight bends without kinking the line.  The mileage is ORIGINAL and under 17,000!  The factory brake pads, rotors, shoes, and drums are still ORIGINAL to the car - and there's plenty left!  This car was customized with a built up Chevy 350 which has aluminum intake, headers, Holly 750 carb, high pressure/high volume electric fuel pump, and custom bent TRUE dual exhaust all the way to the back.  There is all the piping and wiring for NOx but it's not connected to the manifold.  NOx tank is NOT included.  The transmission is a Corvette C-4 and Corvette posi-traction rear axle.  I don't know the exact gear ratio but based on experience I would guess they're in the 4:10 range.  Everything in the car is original on the interior - even the factory installed cassette deck.  The T-Tops do not leak and have the original storage bags for when you remove them.  The air conditioning works but the belt was removed for more performance.  We put an old belt on just to try it and then removed the belt again because it was in bad shape.  The a/c system is still charged with R-12 and would have to be converted to R-134a if you ever need to repair anything.  The ORIGINAL factory paint is sun faded and pretty chalky.  I'm pretty sure buffing it would just remove most of it but I didn't try it.  


I don't know who did the customizing of the drivetrain but based on my years of custom work both mechanical and body, I can confidently say that they did a fine job!  Being that my nephew was driving this I went over everything completely and thoroughly!  During that time the only thing I found was the brake lines too close to headers and pretty much just clean/lube brakes.  There's nothing else wrong.  If you have any questions please ask, I will answer them as soon as I receive.

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.

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.

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile

Sun, 29 Apr 2012

Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
