1977 Pontiac Lemans Can Am on 2040-cars

This auction is for a a rare 1977 Pontiac Lemans Can Am. One of 1377 sold in 1977. The cars history is known since new. The car was sold new in Nebraska and came with the Pontiac 400 (TA 6.6) and Turbo 400 automatic transmission. The options included air conditioning, AM/FM/8 Track and the Can Am package which included the white paint, graphics kit, G80 limited slip rear, the (low altitude) TA6.6 Pontiac 400 coupled to the Turbo 400 automatic, Radial Tuned Suspension, Rally II wheels, shaker hood and the infamous duck tail spoiler.
While the car was sold new in Nebraska it spent almost all of its life in and around Denver, CO. Sometime in the late 80's the engine threw a rod through the water jacket and the car was refitted with a 1976 Grand Prix 455 V8 and the transmission from the 455 as well. In 1990 a bent push rod caused the owner to park the car in a storage locker for the next twenty one years. The car shows 132,000 miles on the odometer and I have been told by the original owner that that is correct. The car is in need of a complete rebuild and needs paint, engine, interior including dash restoration, carpet and seats. All parts are present. The car is virtually rust free. The frame, rockers, floor pans, fenders, quarters (right side behind tire has a spot of rust about 1/4" in diameter), hood and deck lid are very solid with no rust through.. For the most part the car only needs blasting/sanding, door ding repairs and paint. Trim is decent but could use some polish and a couple of small dent repairs. Car could use a full set of weatherstripping. The drivers side door was dented in a parking lot in the mid 80's and re-skinned. It has rust at the bottom of the door. At the time of the door re-skin both lower sides of the car were repainted. Included in the auction is a replacement drivers side door from a 1977 Lemans in excellent condition with no rust and original green paint. The black padded dash is in very bad condition although possibly restoreable but also included in the auction is a full dash in Red from another Can Am. The black front seats need restoring and two extra Can Am Parchment seats are included. Along with the 1976 455 that is in the car, the original engine and transmission are included as well as a 1978 Pontiac TA6.6 out of a 1978 Trans Am. Another Pontiac Turbo 400 from another Can Am is included. The 455 ran when I purchased it and it moved under its own power onto a trailer and into the garage. The 455 currently has the intake and heads sitting in place but not installed. There is a full set of 3M brand Can Am graphics from Phoenix Graphics included. These have been stored in the house and are in the container they came in. They appear to be like new. I don't know if they have a shelf life but they at least four years old. The car comes with a clear title and some original paperwork including the original sales invoice and some factory documents stating this Can Am's authenticity. I have had the car for a few years and started collecting parts and started to remove the engine. Too many other projects got in the way and I have decided to sell this Can Am. 5 or less feedback bidders please contact me prior to bidding or I will cancel your bid. Cash at time of pickup or if a cashiers check car will be released only when funds clear. Any questions please contact at me. |

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
Porsche Syberia RS rally car is what you make when you need a Hummer that's fast
Fri, Apr 24 2020Some history: The Porsche 911's first-ever race was the 1965 Monte Carlo rally, entered because Porsche's PR man at the time wanted to show how much the future icon could do. A year later, Porsche began selling an optional rally kit for the 911 that included Recaro seats, a roll bar, and adjustable Koni dampers. Porsche produced factory rally racers until the early 1970s, winning Monte Carlo three times in a row before letting privateers carry the torch so the factory could focus on campaigning in the East Africa Safari. After years of painful lessons, when Porsche took its brand-new 1978 911 SC to the safari, the 3.0-liter flat-six coupe was hours away from winning the race before damaging the suspension, demoting the car to second place. Porsche fans wanted their own replicas, and finding the new 911 to be an affordable option, the SC — built from 1978 to 1983 — went from denoting "Super Carrera" to "Safari Car."  Porsche took a big step up in with the 953 rally car. Built to win the 1984 Paris-Dakar, which it did, the 953 introduced the four-wheel-drive system Porsche would evolve for the 959 in 1985 and the 964-series 911 in 1989, as well as the now-unforgettable 911-based Rothmans livery. All of this is what's fueling today's 911 Safari Car revival around the world. Almost all of today's builds start with the so-called G Model 911s, produced from 1973 to 1989, usually focusing on the SC and the Carrera that ran from 1984 until 1989. Fast forward to 2007 when a mysterious crew organized the TransSyberia Rally, a "sports-touring" event that stretched 4,500 miles from Moscow to the capital of Mongolia, Ulaanbaatar. Of the 34 vehicles that entered, 25 were Porsche's purpose-built Cayenne S Transsyberia Edition. Put this all in a pot and you have the beginnings of the car that brings us here, the Syberia RS. It's said that a German fellow by the name of Kai Burkhard wanted to buy a Humvee, but the low top speed, around 50 miles per hour, put him off. So instead, he imported a 1986 911 "in collector condition" from Japan with the idea of rebuilding it to provide almost all the off-road fun he could have had in the H1. Burkhard tapped the Tailor Made department at German suspension designer H&R, and the two set to work creating a build like the 953 Dakar winner. This content is hosted by a third party.

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.
