Virginia Tech 2001 Pontiac Grand Am Gt1 3.4l on 2040-cars
Mechanicsville, Virginia, United States
This is a carefully maintained and enhanced Virginia Tech Hokies Tailgating car. Built in 2006 starting with a stock 2001 Pontiac Grand Am GT1 3.4L vehicle, this car is completely overhauled and enhanced to perform as the ultimate tailgating vehicle and portable audio and video entertainment system.
The buyer of the vehicle must be a dedicated and diehard Virginia Tech fan and ideally a car enthusiast capable of maintaining and enhancing the vehicle as needed. This vehicle has had approximately $45,000 in enhancements added over the past 8 years. The car is maroon with orange racing stripes and painted VT logos (clear coated) with two large (5') Hokie Bird stickers on each site. The rear window contains a large VT sticker. Custom made 19" chrome wheels with burnt orange lips. The primary feature is the extremely loud sound system consisting of two sets of JL VR Crossover Speakers powered by a 450w JL 4 channel amp, two 10" JL subwoofers powered by two 300 watt JL amps, and two interior and two trunk lid speakers powered by a 300 watt JL amp. The car is equipped with a 19" TV in the rear trunk lid with hookups for an XBOX, Satellite Dish, etc. Comes with a DirectTV receiver pre-installed and wired with an IR receiver in the trunk. A 7" in-dash LCD touch screen head unit controls the system with dual-zone front and rear audio allowing you to play music while still watching TV or playing a video game console. The horn is a Horntones mp3 horn, complete with all fight songs and the official Gobble played in Lane Stadium (acquired from the Athletics department). The car has built in orange police strobe lights installed in the front and rear fog light housings and in the custom fiberglass trunk display. Custom fiberglass work is included in the kickpanels and in the entire trunk display. All custom features were pre-approved by the Virginia Tech Licensing Department for one time use on the vehicle. More information on the vehicle and photos can be found at the Hokie Car Website. The domain and website can be included as a part of the sale, you will be responsible for future hosting and domain fees once transferred. I regret having to sell this car, but I hope it lands in the right hands. It is my hope to use the proceeds from this sale to start constructing the next generation Virginia Tech tailgating car, SUV, or RV in the next few years. This is a great car for a current student or recent college graduate as a project car and as a centerpiece of one of the best tailgates on campus! GO HOKIES! |

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.
Aficionauto sits down with The Hoff and KITT
Fri, 10 Oct 2014The latest video from The Aficionauto is the perfect palate cleanser for Knight Rider fans after finding out that Justin Bieber is the voice of KITT in an upcoming film. Host Christopher Rutkowski says that the Knight Industries Two Thousand is one of the most requested vehicles to appear on the series and for good reason - Michael Knight's Pontiac Trans-Am is among the most famous cars to ever appear on television.
While the video isn't able to showcase one of the original KITTs from the series, it does get star David Hasselhoff to drive his personal replica and talk about the lasting legacy of the show. The highlight here might be seeing The Hoff back behind the wheel in the open desert basically recreating Knight Rider's opening sequence.
With all of its flashing lights and gizmos, you can probably make the argument that KITT is pretty cheesy, and the show itself was never exactly a pillar of high-quality drama on television. Despite that, the series still provides a ton of good-natured fun, and The Hoff's continued enthusiasm for it is pretty infectious. Check out The Aficionauto video to take another ride with Knight Rider.
