1967 Pontiac Firebird 400
#’s match PHS documented 400/325 HP, TH400. 1st Production Year. California car. 76k original miles on the odometer believed to be accurate. Factory options include power steering, power brakes, console, soft ray glass, safe-t-track 3.08 posi rear, deluxe interior. Vehicle History The original midwest owner purchased new in 1967. He moved to California in 1969 and brought the car with him. He sold the car in 1983 to the second owner (also Californian) where it remained in his car collection for 30 years. Exterior A recent exterior restoration was completed. The exterior paint was shot in GM silver using high quality DuPont Chromabase paint. The body is very straight. The car sits on show quality powder coated rally II wheels with new center caps and lugs, mounted to Goodyear Eagle ST tires with excellent rubber. All exterior emblems were replaced, new front and rear bumpers, rocker panels, wheel trim, door handles, driver mirror, front and rear window molding, weather stripping. Car has great stance and presence. Interior The dark turquoise deluxe interior was a very rare color option in 1967 and complements the silver exterior. The original interior build tags were found under the seats. The interior was treated to brand new carpeting, top quality replacement deluxe door panels (Al Knoch), and a re-upholstered original dash pad. The front and rear seats were reupholstered several years back - they look great with very nice foam. There is a very small (quarter size) hole in the passenger rear side of the headliner, otherwise the rest of the interior is in excellent condition. Undercarriage The chassis / undercarriage remains true to its original stock form with no rust or chassis repair thanks to 45 years on the West coast. The floor panels and frame rails are outstanding. Original rust free trunk floor. Perfect shock towers. Mechanical All gauges, lights, electrics, wipers, horn function properly. The original AM radio is still in the car and works perfect. The original stock 400 engine
fires right up easily and runs incredibly strong with plenty of power. Original Quadrajet carburetor.
The TH400 transmission shifts are smooth. The car tracks straight and stops
well. Brand new custom dual exhaust set up with turbo mufflers
gives the car an authentic performance sound.
Super reliable fun cruiser. The original engine mounts were just replaced. The front transmission seal was also replaced. This is a beautiful bird. The car is being sold as is and is also offered for sale locally. I reserve the right to end the auction early at any time. Great first year restored and rust free Firebird 400. The car is available for inspection. Private Seller. Please contact me with any questions.

NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys
Mon, 10 Jun 2013According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.
This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod
Fri, 21 Feb 2014There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.
2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
