Hello and thanks for your interest in my car.  You are bidding on a very rare triple black 1991 Trans Am convertible.  I have owned this car for a couple of years and have enjoyed it immensely.  It is one of 555 trans Am convertibles built in 1991 and one of 104 built with a 5 SPEED transmission.  I have previously owned three other '91-2 Trans Am convertibles, all automatics and can honestly say that there is no comparison of the "fun factor" that the 5 speed brings to these cars. 

I have broken down by category the different parts of this car.

ExteriorThe exterior is in very nice condition and consistent with a 54K mile car.  There are a couple of scratches shown in the photos that could easily be touched up and other very small spots expected from a survivor car. 
The photos show the exterior very accurately.  I had the nose and hood professionally removed and repainted because of a few bug spots on the front edge of the hood and holes in the nose from the OEM tag frame, as the original owner lived in a state that required it. The entire car was lightly buffed and waxed by the body shop at that time.  The tail lights are as new with no delamination.  The soft top is the original and has no holes and goes up and down smoothly.  There are some frays in the stitching but condition of the top is strong.  The actuators for the tonneau both work nicely.  The plastic rear window was replaced several years ago (receipt in folder) and is crystal clear.  The under body was undercoated  when new or very early in its life and the underside is absolutely rust free.  The original owner  from 1992 until 2007  informed me the car was only used in summer and was never exposed to bad weather or any winters.  The second owner from North Carolina apparently did the same. 

Interior - The interior is extremely nice and looks like a car with less than half the miles.  There are no cracks in the dash or console.  The seats are nice with very little wear on the front bolsters.  The carpet is clean and original and the factory GM mats are still in very good condition.  All the dash lights work, the A/C is cold and the radio works, however the right rear speaker does make a buzzing noise.

Drivetrain -  The engine and entire drive train is clean with no leaks.  The starter is strong and the engine starts right up with no smoke.  The drive train is all stock with the exception of a replacement catalytic converter, muffler and exhaust tips.  The clutch pedal is strong and the transmission shifts smoothly.  The tires are Goodyear Eagle F1's with 40-50% tread left on them.

Documentation -   This rare Trans Am comes with the original owners manual and convertible supplement, along with the selling dealers business card.  I also have a copy of the original invoice from GM archives showing the car was delivered to GM auction sales, indicating that the car was a GM PEP program car.  It is my understanding the with the PEP program, GM execs could order cars and drive them for around six months.  According to the vehicle invoice, this car was priced internally on 3/91, built in 5/91 and invoiced in 11/91.  The original owner bought the car in 1/92.   According to the records on compnine.com, this car is one of SIX TRIPLE BLACK 5-SPEED CONVERTIBLES BUILT IN 1991.  I also have various receipts for maintenance and service that go back to 1998.  I am not a dealer and I have a clear Georgia title in hand.  The Carfax is clean and confirms the documentation.

Summary and Terms -  Of all of the Trans Am convertibles I have had over the years, this car is the most fun, get the most looks and has the best history and documentation.  I have tried to the best of my knowledge accurately outline the car and make buyers aware of the things that I would want to know if I were a potential buyer.  This is a 23 year old unrestored survivor car and is sold as is with no warranty expressed or implied.  This is a seven day auction with a reasonable reserve for a car of this type.  I require a $500 deposit within 48 hours of auctions end via PAYPAL.  The remainder shall be paid in person at time of pickup or via certified funds that have cleared my bank before car is released.   I can store the car in the shop at my residence for a couple of weeks or so until shipping arrangements can be made if needed.

The bottom line is that this is a car that has huge collector car potential with 3rd gen F-bodies rapidly gaining in popularity, is nice enough to be seen anywhere, but not a ultra low mile time capsule that you are afraid to take out of the garage and use.  My wife and I have 2 kids and we loved to take this car out and cruise on Sunday afternoons.  It is a cool car that's priced right to have fun while not breaking the bank.   The only reason I am selling it is that I have other things in life that simply take priority right now.  I will be glad to answer any questions you have.   My number is 229-392-7111 and my name is Jason.  Thank you for your interest!

Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO

Mon, 24 Jun 2013

Here 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.

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?

eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile

Sun, 29 Apr 2012

Say 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.
