Year:1951 Mileage:999999 Color: paint color is pretty spot on
Location:

Fenton, Missouri, United States

Fenton, Missouri, United States

This is a very cool old custom that will not break the bank but will still get a lot of looks and thumbs up. It is not a show car or a Barrett Jackson car. Just a solid and dependable driver. Body is very solid. No signs of panel replacements. Floor boards and trunk pan are solid. Paint is above driver quality, but not show quality. There are some minor defects from road use that the pics will not show. Same with the chrome. Most is better than driver but not show, although there is some new chrome. Has an early 50's Buick grille. Frenched tail lights. Interior is super nice. No heat or A/C. Tires are like new radial wide whites. All lights work. Gauges all work. Cadillac tilt and telescopic steering wheel. Has a Camaro front clip and 10 bolt Chevy rear end with highway gears. Power steering and power disc brakes. Engine is basically a stock 350 Chevrolet 4 barrel V-8. Starts right up every time and runs out great. No leaks. Trans is a 4 speed overdrive GM automatic. Shifts great. No leaks. 

This car is a great cruiser that drives very good. It is very dependable. Cool stance. Smooth ride. Nice lines. Personally, if I kept it, I would probably flame it with red, white, and a touch of yellow flames to really make it pop.  

I know I am forgetting something here, so please email or call with questions before you bid.  

The fastback in the pictures is sold.

Now for the business end. I encourage you, or someone you trust or hire, to come by and check out the vehicle in person. I will refund your deposit if the vehicle does not match the above description. The vehicle does not leave here until all funds clear my bank. Bank and cashiers checks can take up to 10 business days. My bank will give me a letter stating the date when the check will clear. I will forward a copy of the letter to you. Bank transfers can take up to 2 days depending on what time of the day it is initiated on your end. Again, my bank will let me know when it clears. Cash is great if picking it up in person. 

Call me at 314-732-592five to get honest answers to all of your questions BEFORE YOU BID. Thanks, Dave

I do not respond to text messages

One more time, NO TRADES, Please do not ask. If you do not know, understand, and accept what "no trades" means, then you surely do not have a vehicle that I would be interested in. 

I do not respond to low ball offers, text messages, or take offers over the phone. If you want to make an offer, please do so through ebay email. Include your name and contact info. If I feel you are a serious buyer, I will contact you back. If you do not hear back from me, then my vehicle is probably out of your price range. Once my vehicle hits it's reserve price, I will not end the auction.

I do not give out my reserve price. Too many knuckleheads out there that like to play games with bidding just under the reserve amount with no intention of actually buying the vehicle. Makes it look like schill bidding is going on.  

If you have a feed back rating less that 100% or less than 10 feedbacks, you might want to check with me before bidding. I will sometimes block or cancel bids if I get a bad feeling for the bidder. Non-paying winners are a real problem for sellers and it is hard to get seller fees refunded from Ebay in a timely manner, if at all. 

For you new members, please don't bid unless you know and accept how ebay works and understand that you are legally committing to purchase if you bid. Not following through with a purchase after winning an auction for a new member can result in ebay canceling your membership. 


Thanks to all, good luck with your bidding, and have a great day, Dave

The one picture of the front seats makes it look like the center panel is a different color of blue. It is not. The interior cloth color is the same throughout. The picture of the rear seat has the most accurate depiction of the actual color of the whole interior. Funny what lighting and a camera can do to distort the real colors. The blue exterior paint color is pretty spot on.

Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

NASCAR driver Tony Stewart is making good use of his nickname Smoke in new videos inspired by the 1970s classic Smokey and the Bandit. The original is one of the quintessential automotive movies of its era with a fantastic combination of slapstick comedy and great car stunts in a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. If you've never seen it, check it out immediately.
In the new six-part Smoke IS the Bandit web series, Stewart takes on the role of Burt Reynolds' famous character complete with huge mustache. But instead of trying to smuggle cases of Coors beer it's Mobil 1 oil. The series promises to recreate many of the famous scenes from the movie and includes cameos from other NASCAR drivers.
To complete the look, future videos just need a quality replacement for a young Sally Field to ride shotgun. It would also be really cool if Reynolds could make a brief appearance at some point. Scroll down to check out the trailer and the first episode in the series.

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am

Wed, 15 May 2013

When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.

Rumormill: DeLorean Motor Company considering rescuing Pontiac Solstice?

Wed, 07 Oct 2009

DeLorean Motor Company Pontiac Solstice renderings - Click above for high-res image gallery
General Motors has made a science out of sharing platforms. So when the company's Kappa platform was introduced for a new rear-drive roadster to be distributed across three different motor divisions, you'd have figured the program was pretty safe, right? Unfortunately for the workers at the Wilmington Assembly Plant which manufactured the Kappa roadsters, those three divisions were Pontiac, Saturn and Opel - three units which the General has either sold or shut down. Which is a shame, because a perfectly good rear-drive roadster platform is a heck of a thing to waste.
In one of the strangest rumors we've heard recently, however, our compatriots over at Jalopnik report that the DeLorean Motor Company (yes, that DeLorean Motor Company) is considering buying the plant and the platform from GM and putting it back into production as a new DMC.
