RESTORED  1979 PONTIAC TRANS AM WITH 4SPD AND T-TOPS

 

This vehicle was restored about 2-3 years ago.  I bought it from the previous owner who was the person who restored it as far as I know.  It is blue with white interior.  I has a 400 cu Pontiac engine which is not original to the car although it is a correct engine for Trans Am.  The vehicle was purchased by the previous owner and then gone through in detail, painted, new decals applied, all new weather stripping and the interior was done in white which is a custom color.  You can see that the entire interior of the car was redone very tastefully.  This is not a crazy custom restoration.  Even though the interior color was changed and done in white it looks very authentic and nice.  It has 4 spd transmission.  Please look at the pictures and you will get a good idea as to the condition of the car.  The interior is in great condition.  Paint is in very good condition.  Engine and transmission and all the other parts of the car were gone through and updated/restored as part of the restoration process.  I am not sure and cannot guarantee the original mileage on the car.  The car looks and presents very nicely.  All the weather stripping and glass and instruments are in very good restored condition.  The car has been stored in a covered garage since I purchased it.  I have not been able to use the car that much since I purchased the vehicle.  That is the reason why I decided to sell.  I am so busy with work and do not really have time to spend enjoying the car.  It should be driven and enjoyed and I am not able to do that.  The car is not a show car and I am not representing that the restoration was done to make this a show car. It was restored to make it a very nice and clean driver. The previous owner at one point sent me the progress photos of the restoration process which showed the car being done from complete strip to paint and interior and engine etc.  Unfortunately I was not able to locate them as I failed to saved them independently.   The reserve is  set at a very reasonable number.  However, please do not ask me to reveal the reserve.  Also, instead of sending e-mails and asking what I am asking for the car, please feel free to make any offer you would like to make and I will respond and tell you if your offer will do it.  We can go from there. If you would like to see and inspect the car, please make sure you contact me ahead of time, the auction is for 7 days.  If you win the auction that is not the time to inspect and decide whether you want to buy it.  It is time to pay, with all due respect.

Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.

What's driving the spike in air-cooled Porsche 911 prices

Thu, Mar 26 2015

Classic car prices have been racing skyward in general, but prices for air-cooled (pre-1999) Porsche 911s are ascending like they're strapped to rocket boosters. It's been going on for years, and every year people are surprised by how outrageous it's getting: Classic Driver covered it this month, as did The Truth About Cars who included this example of a "scruffy" 1993 RS America with 215,000 miles asking $80K; Mike Spinelli at Drive riffed on it at length last year along with a host of classic-car-market observers; Porsche forums were at it two years ago; and let's not even get into the 993 Turbo, going for prices so high you have to lie down to look at them. Speed Academy has run a piece looking at why it's happening, one theory being that regular-guy owners are hopping on the runaway-price wagon without any good reason. As in the example of that high-mileage, scruffy 911 RS America at Bring a Trailer, the owner sees pristine examples valued by Hagerty at $170,000, and even though the average value is $93,238 he thinks something like, "Mine's got to be worth half of top dollar ..." The tide - even one rising on air - makes it hard to find decent prices. Then there is the flood of money into the market. In spite of articles that try to temper investors' outlooks on collectible cars, other articles in places like the Financial Times and the Guardian promote vintage metal as a safe place to put money and reap astonishing returns. Speed Academy thinks one side effect of high 911 prices is that responsible enthusiasts are turning their attention to cars like the BMW 2002, E30 M3, and E9 3.0CS, saying their prices are "sharply on the rise." The entire article is worth a read since it goes into markets far afield from pricey German steel, but incredibly, the entire piece was actually inspired by a 1997 Acura Integra R that sold for $43,000 on eBay. So while this could be the best time to get into the classic car market if you know what you're doing, it is certainly the best time to do your homework. Related Video:

Pontiac Aztek enjoys rebirth thanks to Millennials

Fri, Sep 11 2015

Apparently, Millennials – those between 18 and 34 – aren't afraid to look different on the road, and they like performance, too. A new study by Edmunds is discovering some surprising vehicle choices by this group. Among them, the long-derided Pontiac Aztek is getting a new day in the sun with 25.5 percent its buyers coming from this generation in the first half of 2015. For comparison, Millennials represent an average of 16.8 percent of used car purchases. The Aztek is slowly shaking its reputation as a styling abomination, which seems tied to its appearance on Breaking Bad. The show premiered in 2008, and the Pontiac has been on this list for four of the past five years, according to Edmunds. It even led the pack in 2010. A recent Retro Review from MotorWeek also showed that the crossover wasn't always so hated. While it's still a shock to see the Aztek on any popularity list, the awkward-looking crossover only ranks sixth among Millennials. The vehicle with the biggest portion of buyers from the generation is the Dodge Magnum with 27.6 percent. According to Edmunds, the bluntly styled wagon is especially popular in Detroit and Chicago. The Chrysler Pacifica comes in a close second at 27.3 percent. When it comes to used cars, value and utility appear to trump just about anything else for many Millennial buyers," Edmunds analyst Jeremy Acevedo said in the report. Young buyers aren't afraid of sporty rides, either. The Subaru WRX has 26.4 percent Millennial buyers to rank third place on the list, and the Volkswagen R32 takes fifth at 25.7 percent. Just a few points lower in seventh place is the Nissan GT-R at 25.4 percent, and the final performance machine in 10th place is the Lexus IS-F with 24.7 percent. Related Video:
