1984 Pontiac Trans Am. Bought new at Blount Pontiac in Gainesville, Florida by a man in his early 30's. I have the ORIGINAL title showing where he bought the car on March 2nd 1984. 5.0 liter (305 cubic inch) V8 engine with the 700R4 automatic overdrive transmission, four wheel disc brakes. What is cool about this particular car, is the fact that it is a top of the line Trans Am, but it has very few options.. It has manual windows, locks, seats, mirrors, no rear window defogger etc. The radio is AM/FM only, not even a cassette player. The original spare tire and jack are still stored in their original location.

Since I have owned it, I bought four new Mastercraft MC-440 215/65R15 tires ($300), only had three mounted, one is in my shed, a brand new Optima Yellow Top Dual Terminal battery ($200), Car has had the spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap, distributor rotor, air filter, fuel filter, and wiper blades replaced. I drove it from my home in Darien, Georgia to Brunswick and back three times before the engine started smoking and knocking on the bottom end. It has been parked ever since (about ten days ago). I need a car that will get me back and forth to my new job about an hour away from my home, and I won't have the time to work on this car anymore.

I have always loved the looks of these cars, ever since I was a young boy. My Sisters boyfriend had one brand new and I got to ride in it, and it was a very memorable experience for me. And there was always KITT from the TV series Knight Rider...

Here are a few cool things about the '84 T/A:

*It is one of the most aerodynamic Trans Am's ever built. The 1983 Daytona 500 Edition (Same body with same ground effects) had a coefficient of drag of only .029!! The only notable difference between that car, and this one are the "bowling ball" hubcaps on the wheels. This car is more aerodynamic than the newer (1993 and up) cars that despite having a more aggressively raked windshield, also had a ton more frontal area.

*This particular car, with its short list of options weighs only 3262 lbs, according to the information on the title.

*1984 was the last year for the Finned Type taillights. They were only used from 1982-1984, and the Trans Am models were dark tinted.

*Car has functional cold air intake system. Under full throttle, a solenoid opens a flap at the rear of the hoods cowl to allow cooler air to get to the intake.

*No t-tops = less squeaks, rattles, and wet bumpkis first thing in the morning.

*Instrument panel backlighting is red, just like the 1983 Daytona 500 Trans Am was, and later became a Pontiac trademark.

I have removed the air conditioning compressor, condenser, hoses, and the smog pump. I kept those pieces should the next owner decide to use them. My dream was to build a light, nimble car that could get 25 mpg +, handle like a Porsche, and run like a Cheetah on cocaine, but it is just not the right time for that to happen. (Hawks Third Gen makes LS engine conversion parts, and also have everything necessary to convert it to a 6-speed, just sayin').

All lights work (dome light bulb is MIA, on the list of things to get before the engine started sounding like Cummins Diesel). Steering was tight and smooth. Car could use shocks and struts, as well as hood and hatch struts. There are only 150 miles on the three tires I have put on the car!

Car is located in the beautiful Coastal Georgia town of Darien (about one hour south of Savannah). Car can be stored here for up to 90 days, unless other arrangements have been made with me first. I will not be responsible for damages to the car during that time (lots of tall trees here, gets windy sometimes). Deposit of $250 due within 48 hours of auctions end. Balance to be paid within one week (seven days) of the auctions end. If you don't have the cash, please don't place the bid.

Thank you for looking at my auction, and best of luck!

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am

Mon, 13 May 2013

No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.

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.

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.
