1999 Pontiac Grand Am - Bright Red - Rebuilt Top End Of Engine - Really Nice Car on 2040-cars
|
Hi, I purchased this vehicle from a friend with engine problems two years ago. I went completely through the engine rebuilding it from the Head gaskets up. The heads were machined at professional machine shop. Upgraded black fiber composite head gaskets and upgraded steel intake gaskets were both used in the rebuild as I rebuilt the car for my own use. I have installed a new windshield, wiper blades, alternator, water pump, all top end engine gaskets, front brakes, cruise control buttons on steering wheel, all window motors in all doors, updated side rear view mirrors, and I'm sure there's more I can't think of this second. I will be updating this listing as I think of things also. The only things that do not work is the side mirror lights on the flip down visors. I am selling the car only because I have acquired a Cadillac CTS that I have just about finished. I have a clean and clear Indiana title that is "Normal" not rebuilt. The car has some scratches here and there on the outside, the passengers side front tire blew out putting some dents in the back side of the passengers front fender but are hardly noticeable. It has new tires and wheels as of a month ago. The wheels in the picture are not the current wheels. I do have a picture of the wheels that are on the car now included in the pictures as they are Konig Incident wheels. They actually very similar. I will be adding more pictures in the next few days by the way. The interior is in good shape, as it has some wear, the dash was curled like most grand am cars but when the windshield was out I re-secured the dash panel back down as much as possible. The carpet has normal wear. The seats do not have any holes. It has remote entry with truck release that all works perfectly. It also has a moon roof that moves up then slides back that is factory. The car does run and drive really good. After Purchase, I can meet with you anywhere within 25 miles of 47356. I will also give my cell phone # to the winner. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Thanks for your time and good luck! I do have the car listed locally so I do reserve the right to remove auction at anytime. If you want to make an offer please just message me.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM
Fri, 16 Oct 2009Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Here comes the Judge. Court is in session. The verdict is in. How many more tired clichés can we come up with? It hardly seems to matter, because it's happening: Trans Am Depot has announced via the teaser video below that it is launching a 2014 GTO, complete with Carousel Red (bright orange, really) paint and full Judge badging.
The car is based on Trans Am Depot's 6T9 Goat, which, in case you don't get the reverential references, is meant to mimic the look of the 1969 Pontiac GTO. As with the company's other cars -including the 2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am we recently drove - the GTO will be based on the current Chevy Camaro, which means two doors, V8 engines and rear-wheel drive, just like the muscle cars of days past.
As for actual details of what's under the 2014 GTO's hood, we're completely left hanging. We'd expect some sort of power adder (turbo, supercharger or possibly some other form of a highly massaged version of the Camaro's V8), and we certainly know that GM has any number of hi-po crate engines to choose from.
Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am
Wed, 15 May 2013When 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.
