Here is a super Rare 1967 Firebird HO convertible. Pontiac got into the Pony car race late in 1967, with its offering the Firebird. These cars came with 3 V-8 options, the standard 326, which came with lower compression ratio and 2 barrel carburetor, the 400, and then the 326 HO, which featured 10:5:1 compression, 4 barrel carburetor, and dual traction bars. There were only 6078 HO's built in 1967, and only around 1000 convertibles, making this a super rare option for the firebird. This car is in super nice shape, but is not perfect. If you are looking for a trailer queen, this is not your car. This car is in great shape shape for being 46 years old. Car was originally burgandy, but was repainted Tyrol Blue. I purchased this car about 7 years ago, and finished it. This car is a correct numbers matching car. I say correct numbers, because the motor was replaced under warranty, in 1967 by Pontiac. All engine casting numbers are correct and all correct date coding. Block is stamped S.R. for service replacement. Motor was replaced with a long block. The engine still maintains its original 141 casting on the Heads, original intake, original carter AFB 4243S, original Distributor, original style long branch exhaust manifolds, and original air cleaner. Car has original 3 speed manual transmission. Manual ivory convertible top. Deluxe Parchment interior. Interior was replaced about 4 years ago, and some dummy (Me) sat down in the drivers seat with a screw driver in my back pocket, and put a small hole in it. Dash Pad is original to the car, and does have two cracks in the top. Complete PHS (Pontiac Historical Society) documentation. Since I have owned the car, I have pulled the engine, and completely resealed it. I installed new timing chain, oil pump, water pump, and radiator. Carburetor was completely rebuilt by Classic carburetors out of Eden, NC. Transmission was completely resealed. New tires, new brakes, and new master cylinder. New clutch. Engine and front lighting harness' were also replaced. Convertible top was replaced about 4 years ago, and show some light dirt stains, from being outside some. Nice original pontiac ralley II Wheels with original style lug nuts. New aluminized factory style exhaust. Dual traction bars (factory). Car will need door glass adjusted some more. There are also some scratches on the drivers side door glass, where the glass had rubbed on something inside the door previously. There are also two dents on the passenger side door, toward the bottom, that should be able to be removed with out body work. This car turns heads wherever I go. Don''t miss out on your opportunity to own this piece of classic Pontiac history.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later
Fri, 12 Sep 2014
Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
This Auto Aerobics car art ties our brains in knots like pretzels
Sat, 14 Dec 2013We like cars, and we like art. Naturally, Chris Labrooy's Auto Aerobics series - computer-generated images of some seriously contorted 1968 Pontiac Bonnevilles floating in mid-air - instantly clicked with us. If the Pontiacs weren't floating or hollow, we could be fooled into believing the image is real. But where's the fun in that?
Check out the gallery we included of Labrooy's Bonneville art, and feel free too head over to his website for some Formula One humor.
