This is a very unique vehicle made from a Pontiac G8. It brought from NY to CA where it had been hit in rear. Only the trunk and rear quarter panels were damaged. They had to be removed to build this truck anyway. No engine, transmission, fuel tank, etc. damage. All emission control devices were retained. This truck has 2 years of Inspection and Emission certifications and very light driving. Garaged and not winter driven. I am told car was rebuilt from GM stocked parts. I have about $17,000 (about 6 pages) in receipts from the engine rebuild, transmission additions & mods, exhaust system replacement. In all cases GM or higher quality items were used right down to the oil pump.The exhaust manifolds have large catalytic converters that should never fail from quality fuel and the occasional addition of fuel system cleaners. The engine bay looks stock you have to look hard to see the laser built exhaust - it does not have a cold air intake. This engine & mechanical. work was done by the renown Sullivan GM Performance in the giant Las Vegas, Nevada, Speedway. I was planning on keeping this vehicle for myself so I went with a highly respected & experienced shop. The triple gauges on the dash are not stock, are backlit, and an example of Sullivan GM Performance's great work. An Engine Rev/Trans Shift warning light has also been added. This vehicle can not be licensed in California for emissions reasons. There may be other areas also. It is your responsibility to verify this vehicle may be street driven if that is your intention. The engine including the GM LSX block is not stock and has been moderately modified. The vehicle is very fast and is streetable but must be placed in neutral at a stop when the engine is not up to operating temperature because of the very rough idle. The engine displacement is 421 cubic inches (6.9 liter). A longer stroke (Callies forged steel crank) and a bigger bore than the 376 cu. in.(6.2 liter) GTP block. Standard compression ratio was retained and is tuned to run on 91 Octane fuel at 1500 ft. elevation and above. Equipped with an 8 quart no loss of ground clearance oil pan. 19" SLP Wheels with Yokohama D580 Tires. New Kevlar/Ceramic brakes. Low dust - safer & faster stopping. A more appropriate torque converter was installed. I do not have any ET/MPH numbers as the car has been street driven only and even then not to much excess of posted limits. A couple of items that are included in the car. The fully lined, gas sprung, locking, bed actually has more cargo space than any El Camino GM built. Full size behind the bumper spare tire with mag wheel. All new parts including engine & tires have very low miles probably not over 250 miles. If you have an important question please ask (calls or e-mails) so there will be no disappointments. Buyer is responsible for $2000.00 deposit through PayPal at close of sale. Remainder is due via wire transfer or cashier's or certified check with a local bank within 3 business days. Buyer responsible to arrange vehicle transportation. I Will help where I can. Thank you and I want you to really enjoy your new vehicle. Jeff |

GM recalling 1.4 million older vehicles for oil leak fire risk
Tue, Oct 27 2015General Motors is recalling 1,411,332 older vehicles with its 3.8-liter V6 yet again due to a fire risk. Specifically, there are 1,283,340 of them in the US, and the affected models are the: 1997-2004 Pontiac Grand Prix 2000-2004 Chevrolet Impala 1998-1999 Chevrolet Lumina 1998-2004 Chevrolet Monte Carlo 1998-1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue 1997- 2004 Buick Regal The fault with these vehicles is that oil can drip onto the hot exhaust manifold during hard braking, which can potentially cause of fire. In the last six years, there have 19 reported minor injuries from this problem but no crashes or fatalities, according to the company. Spokesperson Alan Adler also told Autoblog: "GM has reports of 1,345 fires in vehicles that were repaired under two previous recalls for this issue." At this time, GM is still developing a remedy for the problem. According to Adler, the company advised owners to park these vehicles outside for the previous recalls. "The cars can be safely driven. In cases where a customer reported an engine fire while driving, smoke was reported, which would be an indication of a malfunction," he said. This is GM's fourth recall for this problem since 2008, according to The Detroit News. At one point it was believed that aging valve cover gaskets allowed the oil to leak out and drip onto the manifold. A campaign in 2009 covered nearly 1.5 million of these models through the 2003 model year for the same issue. At the time, dealers installed new spark plug wire retainers as a fix.

GM is working on a remedy. The company is aware of post-repair fires in some vehicles but no crashes or fatalities. There have been 19 reported minor injuries over the last six years.

This Hoonigan mechanic's twin-turbo Trans Am is wonderful
Thu, Mar 24 2016What do you drive when you work on rally machines for a living? Probably a Subaru WRX, and that's what Gregg Hamilton had for a while until working on his car felt too much like his day job. So when he moved from New Zealand to the US to work for Ken Block (with a few stops along the way) he bought something entirely different. This is Gregg's 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. It's a throwback to another time, but it's anything but stock. It has that magic combination of a big V8 with a manual transmission and rear drive, just like the tin-top racers Gregg watched in his Kiwi youth. He bought it sight unseen from its previous owner in Alabama, and has been tinkering with it ever since. There's something about the flared wheel arches and the classic Firebird gold-striped black livery that has us smitten. Scope out the six-minute clip above from Petrolicious and see if you don't fall for Gregg's Pontiac as well.
GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
