I have for sale a VERY SOLID RUST FREE 1979 10th Anniversary Pontiac Trans Am. It is equipped with it's original 403 Olds motor and Turbo 350 Transmission. Car runs nice, but original carb needs to be rebuilt. I got it running with a friends carb and that DOES NOT go with the car. The car is loud at the moment, because it was missing exhaust manifolds when i bought it. I believe the previous owner was going to put headers on it and never did. I put the correct manifolds on it, but they are not hooked up to the exhaust, which is missing the downpipes. She moves around and drives, but there are no brakes at the moment. Motor looks to have been rebuilt, but i have no paperwork to verify. Was painted, so i'm assuming the motor was pulled at some point.
The previous owner had the car stripped down and covered it in a crappy primer, which is why you see surface rust. I assure you, there is no rot through that i can see on this car. Everything is solid. I have video's of the car running along with video of me under the car and walking around it. I can email them to interested bidders.
The interior of the car is nice. The dash is UNCRACKED. Floors are solid. Has the original radio that works. The interior panels are driver quality. Needs new carpet if you want it to be a show car. Seats need to be recovered. Steering wheel is very nice. Has tilt column with cruise control (unsure if it works, never tested it).
She needs a full restoration, but think of all the time and money that will be saved due to the condition of the body!! These are hard to find, and even harder to find (especially around here) in this condition. Buyer is responsible for shipping, but i will assist the best as i can. Please ask ?'s before you bid. Serious bidders only. Thanks and Good Luck!!

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile
Sun, 29 Apr 2012Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes
Mon, 31 Mar 2014When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:
GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
