1980 Pontiac Trans Am Pace Car Turbo on 2040-cars
Bay City, Michigan, United States
|
I am selling my 1980 Trans Am Indianapolis 500 pace car, just in time for summer. Enjoy driving this rare car around with the t-tops off! It has the 301 turbo engine and an automatic transmission. This is your opportunity to buy a complete running, driving pace car of which only 5000 were made. It is 34 years old and is showing signs of use. This is a 15 footer, but the perfect daily driver. The hard to find space saver spare tire and inflator are still in the trunk. The space saver is near mint comdition, while the inflating canister shows some surface rust. The car drives down the road straight and has a great ride. The car has had a repaint and could probably use another. There are several small rust spots. One under the drivers side rocker and another hole the size of a quarter underneath the passenger floorboard. As shown in one of the pictures, the previous owner backed into another vehicle and cracked the paint on the drivers side rear wing. The interior is in fair condition but could use new carpet and a headliner. If you google Trans Am Pace car there is an official site that will list all of the options this car has. This is a great car that deserves to be put back into its original glory! Please keep in mind you are bidding on the car, not a chance to look at it and decide later. This car may be viewed at any time during the auction. I can help with shipping and would even be willing to deliver at the buyers expense. The car must be paid for before it leaves. I will accept cash, money order, wire transfer, and even a personal check (once it clears). I will accept a deposit only via Paypal, the balance will have to be paid by one of the previously listed means. Thanks for looking and feel free to ask any questions. |

Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally
Fri, 13 Jun 2014The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.
Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.
