This could be you.. Up for auction is a beautiful example of true American muscle! This 1979 Pontiac Trans Am is a real survivor car. It has been well cared for and well maintained. She runs and drives excellent. This car is turn key and needs nothing but an ambitious driver.
This car has it all.. T-tops, 6.6 liter, shaker hood scoop, rear spoiler, real metal louvers in the rear window, CB with magnetic whip antenna, automatic transmission, 4 wheel disk brakes, factory air ( which does not work, it needs the compressor), power windows, cruise control, 18 inch wheels, and Cd player with USB port. or 8 track, Here is the run down on the car.
The Body... Lets start off and say that this is an un-restored survivor car. The paint is shiny and has an aged patina. It has been buffed out and looks nice, that is not to say however that it is perfect. it has a hand full of chips and the usual ware spots on the bumpers. The paint is rubbed thin in some spots. There is one dent on the passenger side front fender just under the trim by the door. Other than that no major repair or damage to the body. This car is Rust Free!! here in Oregon and California where this car came from we do not salt the roads so no rust. The T-top seals are in great shape and do not leak. This does have a branded title out of California. I have not been able to determine how it was branded but I have had the uni body frame inspected by a body shop and they could not find any problem with the frame and the quarter panels look to be original. It was probably from a stolen recovery where the car was not damaged but stolen and striped and recovered. please look at the pictures closely to determine if this it the right car for you. but I will say it is a clean and looks great. I would give the body a 9 and the paint a 8.
The Engine... this 6.6 liter V8 moves out! It has a 4 barrel factory quadrajet carb, with edelbrock manifold, headers and dual exhaust. lets not forget about the Shaker hood scoop. The automatic transmission shifts smooth and powerful. warm it up for a minute and then hit the streets she has never let me down very reliable and fast. I have the factory mesh wheels that come with it and they boil when you put it to the floor. with the big wheels it moves out and hooks up instantly. body stabilizer mounts on the frame make it hook up even better.
The drive train is in great shape. The limited slip does its job well no problems. Springs are stock and ride great thanks to a newer set of Gabriel gas rider shocks. tires have 200 miles on them and are in new condition. the rears are 295-35-zr 18's. Brakes work great and are about 60 to 70% front and rear. the master cylinder has recently been replaced. drives straight as an arrow down the road, the alignment is perfect.
Over all... This is a beautiful car and I have made every attempt to represent it for what it is. please feel free to call me about the details of this car. I will drive it to approved shops to be inspected as requested to pre paid appointments. I have sold many cars on eBay and have a great track record. I will ship anywhere and will work with buyers. you will have to arrange the shipping. the car is available in Salem Oregon to be inspected in person with appointment. please call me at 503-999-0817. good luck bidding and email or call please for any questions. Norm.

GM issues four new recalls, 2.4 million cars affected
Tue, 20 May 2014General Motors has announced another set of recalls, covering some 2.42 million cars in the United States. For those keeping track, The General has now recalled over 15 million cars worldwide this year due to various issues.
Here's the breakdown for this most recent set of recalls:

1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction
Mon, 01 Aug 2011For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.
Aficionauto sits down with The Hoff and KITT
Fri, 10 Oct 2014The latest video from The Aficionauto is the perfect palate cleanser for Knight Rider fans after finding out that Justin Bieber is the voice of KITT in an upcoming film. Host Christopher Rutkowski says that the Knight Industries Two Thousand is one of the most requested vehicles to appear on the series and for good reason - Michael Knight's Pontiac Trans-Am is among the most famous cars to ever appear on television.
While the video isn't able to showcase one of the original KITTs from the series, it does get star David Hasselhoff to drive his personal replica and talk about the lasting legacy of the show. The highlight here might be seeing The Hoff back behind the wheel in the open desert basically recreating Knight Rider's opening sequence.
With all of its flashing lights and gizmos, you can probably make the argument that KITT is pretty cheesy, and the show itself was never exactly a pillar of high-quality drama on television. Despite that, the series still provides a ton of good-natured fun, and The Hoff's continued enthusiasm for it is pretty infectious. Check out The Aficionauto video to take another ride with Knight Rider.
