Hudsonville, Michigan, United States

you are bidding on my 69 trans am clone. there is  a ton to cover with this car so i'll try to get it all.

first thing first I am possibly crazy but im selling at no reserve.

I am however willing to accept offers as i do have the car for sale locally and I do reserve the right to end the auction at any given time.

I have pictured what the car looked like when i first bought it all the way to current.

heres the scoop on the car front to back and top to bottom.

This car was a 400 car originally.

Exterior: New paint, front and rear bumper, emblems, side marker lights and bezels, lights, door handles, mirrors, drip rail moldings, windsheild, back glass, tires, center caps, lug nuts.

Engine & Transmission: The engine is a 1970 YD code 400 built by butler performance a few years ago and has around 3,000 miles on it currently. edelbrock performer intake and carb (750 cfm) hooker super comp ceramic coated headers, thrush h-pipe exhaust system. turbo 400 transmission wich is the original to the car. new motor mounts, transmission mount and power steering lines . hei distributor.

this car has the biggest cam you can buy for a pontiac motor thus robbing vaccuum to the power brake booster.

the starter really needs a heat sheild to protect it from the head of the headers. new belts and hoses. aluminum 3 row radiator to help keep it cool. also has a 160 degree thermostat.

Rear end: is a 10 bolt safe-t-track posi rear end with a 3.55 gear ratio. correct rear end for a 69 trans am.

Brakes: new rotors, calipers, hoses, steel lines, proportioning valve, dust sheilds, booster, master cylinder rear hose, shoes and drums. the steel lines are in the front only from the matster cylinder down. the main line to the rear is the original.

New gas tank and sending unit.

New: door & trunk weather stripping, seat backs (not installed) rear seat upholstery (not installed) ball joints, control arm bushings, front shocks, sway bar end links, front bearings, rag joint for the steering column, the rear shocks and leaf springs are original multi leaf springs.

the car once had a camaro quarter put on the drivers side. that was replaced with a correct firebird quarter before paint. the hood is a steel hood and not a fiberglass hood.

the interior is original and should be redone. otherwise decent passable driver quality. the floor boards have small holes in them which the previous owner patched over them rather than doing the work correctly. I have one full length floor pan for the passenger side but never bought the drivers side. I figured i would have them corrected when i had the interior redone. the dash lights and the gas gauge randomly stopped working a couple weeks ago. Havent had it looked at and not sure why so that should be addressed.

this car is not a 100 point concourse frame off restoration but sure does present its self very well. the paint quality is about an 8 out of 10 and could really look super show with a little more wet sanding and buffing to really make it look glass.

the car also has brand new front subframe bushings and bolts.

anymore questions please do not hesitate. I wish i could keep the car but I am selling all of my projects as I just dont have the time to play with them anymore due to family size and sporting obligations. I get thumbs up no matter where i go and this car is guaranteed to draw attention in any crowd or car show. after all how many 69 trans am's do you see at car shows? EXACTLY!!! be the only one there every single time!

Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way

Tue, 21 Feb 2012

There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
