I've got a 1979 pontiac firebird project. a previous owner turned it into an early 70's formula clone..sort of?.. The body is decent, whoever did the bodywork did a halfway decent job of it. the engine compartment has been cleaned up and painted..also a halfway decent job. The carpet is nice, inner door, and interior panels are fair. The racing buckets are included in the auction. The trunk pan is rusted pretty bad, someone cut half of it out and mounted a plastic fuel cell in there, the floors..are so-so I poked my head under and looked, I did see surface rust, but no big rotten holes . I would assume they need replacing if you're doing a restoration..but they are passable, or patchable enough for a drag car, or rat rod type project. The subframes seem pretty solidly attached to the floors still. The nose is probably the most valuable part of the car, and is in fair condition, however..the formula hood...some clown cut a 14" hole in the center of it. It looks like it would be centered right for a tall aircleaner to stick up through..if thats your thing.. the hood also doesn't match the fenders exactly..it needs to be a 3/4 to an inch longer for proper body lines.

It has factory aluminum snowflake mags, but the tires are garbage. they'll hold air long enough for you to load it, and move it around. the car rolls, and steers fine, but has absolutely no brakes. inside the trunk are most of the body pieces, spoilers, grills, fender vents, and flares. along with some of the window trim. no motor, or tranny. The instrument panel is missing, along with the console, there is a pretty rough looking aftermarket shifter in the car though. You'll need a new windshield, but the rest of the glass is good.

She's almost a basket case as far as full restoration possibilities, but this would be cheap and easy to go drag racing. Or just making noise cruising the streets. There's a Holley electric fuel pump mounted under the trunk..no Idea whether it's any good or not..consider it a bonus if it works..lol

I'm setting the reserve real low on this. And shipping is full responsibility of THE BUYER. I will help air up the tires, and move the car to a wide open area for easy pickup. Bring a winch or help to push it onto your trailer. $200 deposit due at end of auction PAYPAL ONLY, Full payment within 10 days. payment can be paypal, cash, or GOOD CHECK. if you pay with a check, i'll hold the title until the check clears.

Distracted driver crosses center line and hits police car

Wed, Apr 6 2016

Attentive driving and quick reflexes saved the life of a police officer in Hudson, WI, when an oncoming driver drifted into the officer's lane and struck his cruiser. According to KMSP, the officer was patrolling along a busy road through Hudson on March 31 when the crash occurred. Dash cam video from the patrol car which was released to local media shows the dramatic collision unfold. As the officer came around a mild left-hand curve, a white, 90s-era Pontiac Grand Am continued straight through the curve, across the center line, and directly into the officer's path. The officer was able to avoid a head-on collision, but the Pontiac still struck the driver's side of the patrol car. "Both the officer and the other driver are ok, however, this accident could have been much, much worse," said a Hudson Police Department official on the department's Facebook page. "So please remember to pay attention to your driving at all times when behind the wheel." Minnesota's Department of Public Safety estimates that one in every four crashes in the State of Minnesota are caused by distracted drivers. DPS believes that the actual number may be higher, but police often have difficulty proving distracted driving as the cause of a crash. Government/Legal Pontiac Driving Safety Coupe Police/Emergency

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As 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.

6 car mashups that God never intended

Sat, May 17 2014

In the 2000s, the musical mashup genre saw a peak of popularity with releases like The Grey Album from Danger Mouse that mixed The Beatles and Jay-Z. UK artist James Pursey from Carwow decided to take the same concept of shoehorning two disparate things together but applied the concept to cars. Your opinion on the results will vary with your sense of humor. These creations are either some funny pieces of abstract art or absolute monstrosities that prove good design should be left alone. Likely the best of the bunch is the Lambotomic (pictured above), which combines a Lamborghini Miura and an Ariel Atom. Granted, the Ariel is little more than a skeleton to begin with, and the outcome looks like a slightly stretched Atom with the new nose and tail from one of the most beautiful vehicles ever. This could actually work. Though, not all of the mashups are quite so pleasant. The Porschiac WW RS (pictured right) is absolutely disgusting. It combines a Pontiac Aztek, which isn't a beauty queen to start with, and a Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Obviously, the 911 is an iconic shape in autonobolia, but that can't save it from the horror of the Aztek. Pursey fits the its nose, wheel, wing, roll cage and stripes onto the Pontiac. The outcome: A design that will show up in your nightmares. Check out the gallery for the rest of the mashups, including the Humi (a Humvee and a Mini), Aston Smartin (Aston Martin and Smart), Rangerini (Range Rover and Lamborghini Aventador) and the Mazdafenda (Mazda MX-5 Miata and Land Rover Defender). They might not all be beautiful (or even pretty), but it's fun to imagine these oddball creations actually driving down the road.
