Runs Great!74 non-original Pontiac Trans Am with a much built (non original) 455 Pontiac motor (30 over 462 cubic inch). I have a dyno sheet and a video of it making the dyno run. This was just a quick 2 pull baseline dynoing without any adjustments using ONLY a 600CFM carburetor and 32 degrees total timing. With a larger carb and some tuning I would expect to see substantial gains in power. I have owned this car since 1991. This list is still probably missing a few things. Freshly rebuilt and Upgraded 200 4r overdrive transmission. No real rust problems. The interior carpet, pass seat and center console is out of the car at this time (it is here and included with it). I will include a brand New fuel tank that I was going to have modified for a racing sump pickup. Lots and lots of new stuff. This was not a real Trans Am according to the documents, it is a Formula that has been cloned. Every T/A part is here, but its just technically a Formula. I have recipes for almost everything. The car is showing some age and cosmetically will need a makeover in the future. I also have a complete virgin Pontiac 455 that I will include with it. You can get in and drive this car NOW! You could even drive it home if you wanted to. It has a lot of awesome things but I would recommend it for someone that loves to build hot rods or knows someone that builds hot rods THIS CAR IS BEING OFFERED AS IS (AS PICTURED) 10% DUE 48 HOURS AFTER END OF AUCTION, FINAL PAYMENT DUE 7 DAYS AFTER END OF AUCTION
Buyer is responsible for shipping, car will not be released till payment is clear. Prefer cash in person or wire transfer, inspections are welcome. I have more pictures upon request, let me know what you need. Email for my phone number it is much easier to talk than type. Thanks for your interest.

GM doing fine at retaining Pontiac owners
Fri, 28 Oct 2011This isn't the first time we've reported positive news about General Motors retaining former Pontiac owners. Get a few more stories like this latest report from Edmund's Auto Observer, and it will mark an ongoing positive trend for GM. Edmunds.com crunched the numbers to see how well the General is hanging on to customers after shutting out the lights at Pontiac, and it found that nearly 40 percent of Pontiac owners stayed with a vehicle from a General Motors brand.
The numbers are a little lower than an earlier R.L. Polk & Company study, but Edmunds says General Motors is keeping more former Pontiac buyers than it has since 2007. Most are turning to vehicles from Chevrolet, especially during January and February of 2011, when GM incentivized Pontiac owners to stay under the umbrella. Those moves seem to have worked, and 28.1 percent of Pontiac owners trading up made the jump into a Bowtie.
Buyers that have gone elsewhere have largely stayed loyal to Domestic automakers, with Ford picking up the most conquests from Pontiac, with 9.4 percent switching. Toyota and Honda picked up 7.4 percent of the pool of former Pontiac drivers. The numbers are defying any predictions that Pontiac buyers would completely exit the General Motors fold, and have climbed up closer to parity with the retention figures of other GM brands from a 2009 low of only 16 percent retention.
Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later
Fri, 12 Sep 2014
Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As 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.
