I should start by saying that if you are looking for a “fuel-saving car” you my friend, should keep looking. If you are looking for a short description of the beast before you, I can offer you two words “MEAT & POTATOES”. This is the All American chariot of the free world.


You are not dealing with any ordinary, cookie cutter car. This thing was forged from a single block of all American Tungsten Steel. Real sturdy! From that day forward my life has never been the same. Winch yourself off that couch and see if you can handle this 1969 Pontiac Firebird.


There are MANY reasons to love classic muscle cars. Most people drive them because they look good and sound cool. A lot of folks enjoy them because of the memories they've made in them. And some savvy collectors buy them based on numbers alone.  Some just want to get some fresh a** poontang. Well, every once in a while a car like this awesome 1969 Pontiac Firebird comes along and presents the rare opportunity to bundle all of those attractive traits into one exceptionally cool package. It's a 1969 Pontiac-freaking-Firebird, so it automatically looks good and sounds massively awesome.  Since it is some of the most storied American muscle ever built, I'm willing to bet everyone has at least one great memory of this car. 

However, this is no ordinary Firebird.  It's a gorilla of a custom car, with the following upgrades performed on it:


-Custom 522 HP 383 Stroker Engine 

-575 lb ft of brute power torque 

-Upgraded 10 bolt positraction rear end with 390 gears

This baby’s pulse is pumping sh*tloads liters of uncensored raw fuel through her eight nuclear power plant.  The monstrous engine sounds is guaranteed to practically wake up your entire sissy as* neighborhood, so that's a fact you will have to live with as you proudly announce your arrival every time you come home.  I have no idea what is the real MPG is on this thirsty leviathan, but I assure you it gulps on gas as if it was one of the cars from Mad Max desperate to outrun a nuclear missile.  And oh boy, well worth it.


And rest assured this is no metro feminine automatic. . .you command her to obey, with your calloused hand planted firmly on the Hurst manual shifter. And she will obey, the first time, every time. If you can’t handle your stick shifter, or reach the rock hard clutch pedal, you better not ferry skip over here wanting to test drive her. If you stall her out, you can count on getting hit in the face with a piece of re-bar and sent back where you came from.


This monster has no A/C but are you kidding me….Really! If you want to blow the sweat off your brow, you do it the old fashioned way: Stick your head out while driving like a man. “What if it rains?”. . .You whiney b*tch! I told you to stop reading. . . Any man who drives this beast doesn’t give a damn about rain.  The monstrous 522 hp engine is guaranteed to make you lose 30 lbs off your fat face anyway as you boil away while impressing the sh*t out of everyone you encounter driving this car.


And forget about putting one of those “I Heart my Pontiac” stickers on this machine cause when you’re spotted in this American Classic there will be no questions, no further explanation required, people will understand and get out of your way. . …real quick.  They'll be in fuc*ing awe as they see this custom classic muscle car drive by them.

This 1988 Pontiac Grand Prix Daytona 500 pace car could be yours

Fri, Jan 29 2021

Hopefully, the fans of GM's W-body '80s/'90s intermediates can forgive us, but we had pretty much forgotten — or had never really known — that one of the ways that era's Pontiac Grand Prix bathed itself in glory was by serving as the pace car for the Daytona 500. In fact, the Grand Prix paced NASCAR's marquee race every year from 1988 to 1992, and again in 1997, 1998, 2000 and 2003. That first year, 1988, the Grand Prix was all-new, making its debut on the W-body platform. It was also Motor Trend's car of the year. The 1988 Daytona 500 marked the 17th year in a row that a Pontiac was chosen to set the pace but the first time a front-wheel-drive car was so honored. The '88 Grand Prix followed a spate of Pontiac Trans Ams. This '88 Grand Prix, for sale right now on eBay Motors, is presented as an actual pace car, although fans could order a complete set of pace car decals for their very own GP. The pace car is based on that year's top-spec Grand Prix, the SE. In place of the standard car's 2.8-liter V6, however, the pace car uses a modified 3.1-liter V6, which is hooked to a five-speed manual transmission. This Grand Prix is otherwise largely standard fare excepting the roof-mounted light bar, the switches for which are located next to the radio. The mechanical odometer tucked into the digital instrument cluster shows just over 5,000 miles, and presumably, not all of them were acquired on the high-banked oval. With four days to go in the auction, bidding sits at $4,000 with the reserve unmet. Although the reserve is unknown, one clue is that this Grand Prix had been listed by a classic-car dealership in Pennsylvania for $18,500. Besides the debut of the W-body Grand Prix pace car, the 1988 race is also notable for its final lap: Bobby Allison held off his son, Davey Allison, to take the checkered flag, with the father-son duo enjoying a 1-2 finish. Now, who wants to re-live those Grand Prix glory days? Get on your Pontiac and ride!   This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.

2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern

Mon, 07 Nov 2011

General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.
